2 seconds. Lyle and John.
John looking befuddled at Lyle wondering how he can still remember all the words.
Yeah, John had an ipad in front of him, Lyle was all by memory.
Who did you see live recently?

So I forgot, but last week my wife dragged me to see Bob Dylan. I have never heard her intentionally listen to a Dylan song in the 26 years, but for her birthday, got her tickets so she could “see another legend before they die” 
To be fair, it turned out to be a pretty good show - as Dylan standards go (IOW: decent). For an 84-y.o., his voice was strong, his piano playing was pretty on-point (if a bit ham-fisted here and there), and his band was killer (mostly acoustic, and Anton Fig on the drums), and the sound mix was crystal clear - both acoustic guitars, bass, piano and drums were perfectly audible and well-balanced. The stage was very subtly-lit, and Dylan wearing a jacket with a hood resembled the Unabomber…
The only bummer was that most of the songs were from his last album, and the only song in the set I recognized was a kinda neat rearrangement of All Along The Watchtower.
