  Seven Songs for the Week #138 - 26th Nov 25

  Jason Carty

  Saw Bob Dylan this week. My first Dylan gig was in 1989, and last night was my eighth. There's a lot I've forgotten about these 8 gigs. I've just looked at the 1993 setlist here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/bob-dylan/1993/point-theatre-dublin-ireland-53d52799.html and 2025 me would be delighted to hear I and I live, I wouldn't have known it at the time. Anyways, last night was great, I brought my kids, with varying results, but I wanted them to have seen Bob Dylan. I had to check, but he played all of Rough & Rowdy Ways (except Murder Most Foul) which was 9 of the show's 18 songs. He ended with a cover of Rainy Night In Soho, because even though his is inscrutable in his onstage demeanour, he is never not present in the moment. Is this the last time I'll see him? Well, when he didn't play Ireland on his European tour a year ago, I thought I wouldn't get the chance again. But really, anything is possible.
