Disc Two (41:43)
Label : Crystal Cat Records Venue : The University of Texas at Tyler, Cowan Center, Tyler, Texas, USA Recording Date : April 29, 2026 Quality : Audience Recording (A+) Review : Excellent sound on this one. This is part of the Crystal Cat box "Rough And Rowdy In Rochester & Tyler 2026". Recommended. Concert Review (Boblinks) : The UT-Tyler Cowan Center is nicely tucked into the East Texas piney woods. A brief afternoon thunderstorm left "nothing but a cool breeze encircling me." People slowly strolled past the rumbling busses and red trucks of Dylan's entourage under a cloudy sky. If you have followed Bob from town to town like I have at times, you eventually learn that the Prevost bus with the Harley plate on the back is where Dylan is riding. On Tuesday afternoon, I spotted a couple of touring busses in front of the Marriott on the Bossier City side of the river. One of them had the Harley plate. Perhaps Bob stretched out in a hotel bed instead of camping on the bus another night. I think it is cool that Dylan is traveling this way from town to town along the same roads as you and me. Inside my seat was on the fourth-row orchestra right and the sound was a lot better than in the Municipal Auditorium the night before. Every syllable of the lyric was clear, but I also noticed as somebody else had mentioned at an earlier show that the seated microphone was a little clearer. I also was surrounded by people that were simply on date night and wanted to chat with Bob as background entertainment. They don't know that some of us are at "church." Both shows I attended were met with standing ovations at the end. On Wednesday day night, Bob gave a couple of fist pumps in the air from the front of the stage. Today I saw a reel on my social media of a guy at the Abilene show, and he was explaining that there are some of us who are aware that we are seeing a Great Master ply his craft before our eyes! Well said! |
