According to reports, Dylan was in high spirits. Here’s a post by Jonas Åhlund in the Facebook group, Dylanology Revisited:

“Funny moment from tonight’s show in Stockholm. In the middle of the band introduction, just before last song ‘Every Grain Of Sand’, Dylan pretends to be starting on ‘Love Sick’. I don’t know why, maybe just to mess with the band a little? He starts ‘I’m walking… through streets that are dead…’. Then he introduces another musician. Then he continues: ”walking with you in my head…”. The musicians look at each other. Then Dylan says ‘Just kidding.’.”

Dylan’s next show is on Thursday, September 29 in Gothenburg, Sweden. He reaches the UK on October 19, for a 12-date tour that includes four nights at the London Palladium. This will be Bob’s first UK tour for five years.
