Truth to Power

One day to the Bob and Elvis show…

This bodes well:

Dylan Joined by Costello and White in Nashville

Elvis Costello and the White Stripes’ Jack White made surprise appearances during Bob Dylan’s Wednesday night (Sept. 19) concert at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. Although he and Dylan are officially scheduled to begin a tour together on Saturday (Sept. 22) in Duluth, Ga., Costello told the crowd he asked to open the show after learning Dylan was playing at the Ryman. Opening with “(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes,” Costello walked onstage unannounced and performed a nine-song acoustic set that included “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding” and “Veronica.” During Dylan’s set, White showed up with an electric guitar and sang “Meet Me in the Morning,” a song from Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks album. After White provided the lead vocals for most of the song, Dylan joined him at the microphone for the final verse.
