Carrying a Torch.

Bob Dylan's second night at the Garden was as enjoyable as the first, with its own share of surprises. The bulk of the setlist remained the same - Although this time around Bob seemed a little more hopeful (with Forever Young and The Times They-Are-A Changin' in the mix), he still made time for some Dylanesque zingers (such as One Too Many Mornings and You Ain't Going Nowhere) To be honest, at the end of the show the little cynic inside my head was on the fence about whether going twice was justified...until the band closed the night with a special surprise. Bob said a few words about a friend who couldn't be there tonight: "We were such good buddies, so I wanted to play this for him." At which point they broke into The Beatles' [George Harrison's] "Something." It was a beautiful moment to cap another great night.
