That was beautiful. Akita is the best so far.
Bob's voice was  ever. Amazingly splendid guitar intro of
Mama You been on my mind by Larry. That glamorous guitar playing and
mysterious feet move of Bob in Tangled Up in Blue.  The way that David
changes the rhythm  middle of the song and how wonderful of it. The
perfect  play by turns of that lovely Country Pie!  (I loved that when
Bob shout "goose".)  And you can't forget Tony's role on songs like
Cold Irons Bound.

The audience sings together Blowin' in the wind every night. That was
simply fun to be there. The band are greeted by a standing ovation every
time during "the formation".  I'm sure other people will write about the
Japan tour. There's a lot of beautiful things going on the stage. I can't
wait to see the next one!
