My friend Renée always likes to rush the stage, and find a place in the front row, literally at Bob’s feet … she was making a bee-line for her favourite spot, she stopped dead. What the fuck? There, in the middle of the stage, where Bob ought to be, was an electric keyboard.

Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right
It ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don’t matter, anyhow
And it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe

Accidentally Like A Martyr (Warren Zevon)
The phone don’t ring
And the sun refused to shine
Never thought I’d have to pay so dearly
For what was already mine
For such a long, long time

Mutineer (Warren Zevon)
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Hoist the mainsail, here I come
Ain’t no room on board for the insincere
You’re my witness
I’m your mutineer

What do you mean last “classic” Bob Dylan concert (9-1-2002)?
I copied the list of concerts from my private notes.. and forgot to remove that part.
Anyway, it just means that the next concert (Seattle, Washington – 4 October 2002) was the first where he started to use piano/keyboard.. a lot.
