Then rec.music.dylan might prove an enlightening experience --- recent
posts include one from some guy who took a seven-hour bus trip from
New York to Cleveland to catch yet another stop on the never-ending
tour a few weeks after the Dylan/Van Morrison shows in New York and
Boston (no, I don't think he missed those, either).

BTW, while this level of fanaticism is a bit much, I do heartily
recommend Dylan's show the next time the N-E-T blows near wherever you
are. He's in fine form, and the new stuff (from Time Out Of Mind)
sounds excellent.
