DISTANCE/POSITION:
Position was on a hill with a narrow window between standing audience members. Filmer zooms in and stays close on Dylan. No footage of Bucky. Occasional views of Larry.

AUDIO:
Excellent. No echo, cuts, or clipping.
STEADINESS:

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS:
More obstructions than normal. Lots of traffic passing in front of camera between and during songs.

FOCUS/COLOR/LIGHT/RESOLUTION:
Rarely out of focus with acceptable color and resolution.

EDITING:
Editor took a minimalist approach using stills only for long (10+ second) stretches of obstruction. Exception made for "Tangled Up In Blue" where the editor decided to let the viewer see what the camera saw.

PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
Dylan is unusually cheerful. Very good performance of "Just Like A Woman."
