Guest appearances

Ceasar Diaz, Dylan's guitar technician plays acoustic guitar on the last encore in Allentown, 12 July. It was his birthday and his girlfriend's name is Maggie. Or something like that.

Kenny Aaronson returns and plays bass in the 2^nd electric set and the encores at the Jones Beach Theater in Long Island, 23 July.

At the show in Springfield, Ill. Steve Earle plays guitar on I Shall Be Released. Steve Earle was the support act during this part of the tour. Note that due to heavy showers there is only one encore, Mr Tambourine Man.

Songs

A number of shows started with instrumentals, called E-Thang on the set lists written by G.E. Smith (?). Only one of these instrumentals have so far been identified, Lonely Is A Man Without Love, once a hit with Englebert Humperdinck. The first of these shows was New Orleans, 25 August,

the last Santa Barbara, 5 September.

This part of the tour saw the debut of yet another batch of covers: And It Stoned Me, Don't Pity Me, Early Morning Rain, The Harder They Come, I'm In The Mood For Love, In The Pines, Legend In My Time, Nothing But You, One Irish Rover, as well as some other rare songs from the earlier legs: Confidential, Everybody's Movin', Lonesome Town, My True Lala, Pancho And Lefty, Waggoner's Lad, When Did You Leave Heaven?, now acoustic for the first time.

Trouble opened some shows, thus further decreasing the number of Dylan songs never played live.

[TOP]

[1] a show is unique if no other show has the same songs in the same order. Cuyahoga Falls, July 9 and Harrisburg, July 11 are identical!

[2] a show is different from another show if the set of songs are different, regardless of order.

[3] electric and acoustic versions are counted as different songs.

[4] a song is counted as unique regardless of how it is performed.

[5] variation is computed as the quote between number of different songs and mean number of performed songs.
