This was the first Dylan show that I attended. I was 17 years old and went with my cousin who is another huge Dylan fan (actually his mom is the bigger fan, but who cares). Our seats at the concert were terrible, but as they cost $90.oo for top row, I guess we did OK.

The best part of this DVD for me personally is being able to actually "see" the concert that I was at. I had forgotten some of the numbers he did that night, and "Rank Strangers to Me" is one of the best acustic performances I think he did during '98.

The DVD itself was a little surprising to me in terms of video quality. The pictures are CRYSTAL clear when no heads are present (thankfully most of the show is unabstructed), and the audio is fantastic.

Overall a very nice DVD with unfortuantley no menu. Hats off to the taper for a fantastic veiw of Bob and the stage. Also nice to see a very young looking Larry Campell still enjoying himself as a new member of Bob's band.

See this one if you can!
