A case of sod the money, boy was the guy on form. Had Jerry Hall sitting next to me one night, another one turned out to be his 50th birthday bash, ended by Ronnie Wood pelting him with a big bunch of gladioli one at a time until he cracked up and walked off..the following night was great until after when I found some c**t had nicked my van. Like you, never seen him since, but that tour def a highpoint so memory bottled.
Yes - that was a great time to see Dylan. All fired up again, with a proper stripped down rock'n'roll backing band after the bloated 80s. I saw him on 5th Feb at Hammersmith, and seem to remember buying the tickets pretty much on the day.
