Is YTC gone ???
I would be very sad if it is not played next year :( It is my favourite song from the album and the live solo is superb... As much as I love KOG too, it is no subsitute for YTC. We need both !!

I agree.  The solo is maybe better on KOG and more conducive to elaboration, but Crows is a much better song IMO.  When I listen to KOG I just FFW to the solo! ;D

     (encore)
15.    Blowin' In The Wind
(Bob on grand piano then centere stage with harp, Donnie on violin, Stu on acoutic guitar)

I didn't notice anyone extra on-stage at the end and, though it's over 45 years since I've since Pete Yarrow on stage (he emcee'd a show I attended), I'm not sure I would ghave recognised him.

Mark was just fine and seemed to go down well.  Given some of the earlier reviews, I approached the Dylan part with lowish expectations but, actually, it was one of the better performances I've caught in recent years. As I've  said before, I tend to regard Dylan reviews with caution (because what you get can vary from show to show and even within shows) and I should have done so. We met up with a Mark fan who had caught this show five times much earlier in the tour and the view was this was the best Dylan over the six shows. There was light and shade in the set list and in its presentation.

I'm not as familar with Mark's songs as you lot are and I did try to scribble something down but, unfortunately, overwrote some of my notes in the dark and they are indecipherable in places but I think this is right: 

WII, CBC, P'g, KoG, IUtC, Sonny Liston, Done With Bonaparte, HFB, H Away, M'town // SFA. 

Please don't complain if I've got it wrong.

Sadly, the review in THE BOSTON GLOBE (20 Nov 2012, page G7) only mentioned Mark's set briefly but did comment on his contribution to Dylan's set. This is part of it: 

Though Knopfler left after that, a pattern was in place in which the band kept a cool, steady tone and Dylan incrementally raised and lowered the temperature of the songs.
