The first night (Nov. 17) of Bob's 3-night run at the United Palace Theater was a blast. I saw him at this venue last year for the final performance and he was amazing so I jumped on the tickets first thing during pre-sale. SURE my Row CC in the Right Orchestra seats cost me a small fortune (well it cost Dad's Amex... hehe) but what a great view and a great time. I was exceptionally happy with the set list this night =)

The entire time leading up to the show all i kept Tweeting (www.twitter.com/aniutachka) about was the hope for hearing "Baby Blue"... the second he went into it ON GUITAR i called it... that was one of the best highlights of my concert going experience ever!! Hearing "John Brown" was phenomenal as well... i LOVE this song... it is as relevant today as it was 40 years ago.. "Ballad" was awesome tonight as well and of course I can't complain about hearing "Cats/Well" and "Hard Rain"..
The security were atrocious... i could not believe how nasty they were to us... i mean almost Nazi-like with their flashlights... it was distracting and we ended up telling them that we were with the Fire Marshals and they FINALLY left us alone.. Honestly, having paid $300+ for tickets, merch and booze I will do WHATEVER I WANT. Simple as that.
Still, great show and Bob & Band were on point.. everyone keeps saying how Charlie has re-energized Bob and company and I totally see it. He sounded, looked and moved MUCH better than last year!
