The big setlist news was delayed, probably bc very few people recognized the song. For the first time ever, Bob played the extremely obscure Basement Tapes outtake "Baby Will You Be My Baby" It was the first live debut of an original song since Rough and Rowdy Ways! A snippet:

This story Steve Albini tells Tim Heidecker™ Official about George Thorogood meeting Bob Dylan is, as he's the first to admit, maybe not true. But the way Steve tells it is so damn engaging it barely matters. RIP

Tom Waits giving a rare musical performance in a new documentary about homelessness "In Australia, a matilda is a knapsack. When you're on the road, when you're on the run…and you're walking with a backpack, they say you're waltzing matilda. So this is a song about that."
