Colchester Arts Centre - "...massive…"

I came and saw you guys at Colchester Arts Centre a few weeks back now and wanted to just let you know how much I enjoyed it. I'm only 23 but a mammoth Bob Dylan fan and seen him many times; and also seen Jethro Tull many times, and seeing Dave live was a massive thing for me, so thank you.

If you are ever within travelling distance again however I will definitely be coming to see you. My friend and I both thought you gave an amazing portrayal of some great songs; and I personally also loved that you did some very good and very important songs that are close to my heart that maybe some other fans or people coming to see you may never have even heard before and certainly that some other performers wouldn't have thought of doing.

As I said before I hope you come within travelling distance to me again and I look forward to seeing you many more times.

Musical highlight of the year

Hi,

Just wanted to let you know how amazing you were tonight. Such a rich sound, definitely the musical highlight of the year for me.

As soon as I got home I had to play Ninety Miles an Hour Down a Dead End Street from Down in the Groove. Not the most cheerful of songs but I have always loved it and am sure it would sound great with Peggy and PJ singing the bass part. Just a suggestion but I would love to hear you performing it.

See you next Wednesday at the Mill!

Haywards Heath Show

Thanks for putting on a fabulous show in Haywards Heath a couple of weeks back. It really was great to hear those songs played with the feeling and respect they deserve. And just a little humour. Looking forward to the next time, or at Cropredy for another great festival.

A happy and prosperous 2012 to you all.

David Hall Arts Centre

Not something I normally do but your gig last night has made me send this. I have been going to see bands for some 45 years and last nights show was right up there with the best. I have seen Dylan a few times and found that sometimes he just can't be bothered. Last night you put a smile on my face!Your interpretations were superb as indeed were all of your musical skills.

Play Loud!

St. Edith's Hall

"Hope this isn't too schmaltzy, but just to say how much I enjoyed last night's gig. I was totally blown away. A lifelong Dylan fan (since I was 9 years old), you transported me back to the times I have seen Dylan perform (before he lost his voice)! I'm amazed at the strength of Steve's voice and how great the band are - so tight. I bought the CD and am playing it right now - amazingly good. One wish......could you do Visions of Johanna next time you're down South? Not an easy one, I know.....

I actually met Steve in the 90's at a gig he did (not Dylan Project) at the Amersham Arms (The Gig) in New Cross. He sat down with me and my friend and signed a photo for me (To Tricia, with love Steve). That photo still takes pride of place on my lounge wall(amongst the unsigned Dylan ones!). I'm sure he won't remember me though of course! I wanted to tell you myself how much I enjoying your performance when you all went to the bar during the interval, but I was too shy and I guessed you kinda get sick of no-marks like me being sycophantic! I'm in my 50's now and still a bit star struck!! Pathetic eh?

Anyway, I'm still buzzing from seeing you last night so thank you again for stopping me in my tracks (like when I first heard Dylan) and making me feel alive again. I'll be on the look out for you and if the band or Steve do any gigs, I'll do my utmost to get there (hee hee a 50 year old groupie?...... well guess it's time to do what I should have done when I was 20 but was brought up too well.........damn my parents!!!).

May you stay forever young."

Love to you all

Half Moon Putney

"I don't normally do this, I think I may still be a little drunk. However, just a quick thank you for the gig last night (Dec 15 Half Moon Putney). Great stuff, you all nailed it down. It's the first time I've seen you guys and it wont be the last. Im shamed to say I've never seen the man him self. Theres still time (I hope)."
