[quote]I saw the Costello/Dylan concert last night. Excellent! I can see how some might be put off by Dylan (he's hard to understand, even if you know all the words to his songs), but having seen him at his touring nadir in the late 80s, I found his show to be very entertaining. The Costello set was even better! Here are the set lists for both performers:
Costello Set List
October 6, 2007
1. (The Angels Wanna Wear) My Red Shoes
2. Blue Chair
3. Either Side of the Same Town
4. The River in Reverse
5. Oliver's Army
6. Down Among the Wines and Spirits (new song, debuted 9/19/07 in Nashville concert)
7. From Sulfur to Sugarcane (new song, written with T-Bone Burnett for the film “All The King’s Men,â€

(extract)
Elvis Costello was more of an opening act than a co-billed headliner, and his solo performance was only 45 minutes long, but it was solid right from the start, strumming up a storm on "The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes." Costello, too, mixed numerous older tunes into his set, including a rousing "Oliver's Army" and "What's So Funny About Peace, Love and Understanding?"
But he also served up a pair of Coward Brothers tunes (his collaboration with Midas-touched producer-songwriter T Bone Burnett) and earned some of the loudest applause of the night by slipping from "Radio Sweetheart" into a rousing version of Van Morrison's soul-soaked "Jackie Wilson Said."
