A Gift From On High...


Well, my 7th intersection with one Bob Dylan was very successful. The venue was beautiful, the band sounded great, and I even scored some Dylan's 1984 "Real Live" on vinyl, which fills a void in my record collection. The trip couldn't possibly have been better. We stayed in a Holiday Inn in Cincinnati which functioned as the perfect place to take in political coverage. The airwaves were ripe with coverage from my home state with Obama and Biden in town and all. Of course the highlight of the trip was the 5 or 6 minutes in which Dylan played my absolute favorite, "I Believe In You". It was really something to see him play something from the Gospel period which I was cheated out of due to my late arrival to this world. Anyways, Bob treated me to a little taste of that last night, for which I am grateful.
