The Bob Dylan concert for just one person

Reminds me of that Wu-Tang album [1] that only sold one copy (to Martin Shkreli).

This isn't that unusual at all. Many pop stars make a lot of money with private concerts for very rich individuals or companies. Even actors like Leonardo DiCaprio get paid to vacate on the super yachts of rich people from gulf states who then show off the celeb and get attention for themselves.

My personal hypothesis for why pop music seems so odd, BORING and promoting luxury life instead of dealing with people's every day problems and heart aches. The Spotify users don't pay their bills, it's the high profile fans among the billionaires who do. Also their parties are fancier I guess.

Legendary -- "I used them as frisbees in the Philadelphia night, ceremoniously chucking them as far as I possibly could"

I've gotten to watch a fair number of soundchecks as the only civilian in the room - it really is a magical experience. I've become friends with the guys in my favorite band and it's lead to some really magical experiences, like the time I got to play guitar for the last minute or so of a sold out show at the Ryman in Nashville (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tCrreXh0Pg&list=RD8tCrreXh0... starting at about the 6 minute mark)

Is the full concert available somewhere?

I'm glad the one person is a huge Bob Dylan fan.

> Not only that, but Dylan did not perform his usual fare. Instead, he performed four 1950s covers, several of which he’s never sung before or since: Buddy Holly’s “Heartbeat,” Fats Domino’s “Blueberry Hill,” Lefty Frizzell’s “You’re Too Late,” and Big Bill Broonzy’s “Key to the Highway.”

songs like those ARE his usual fare these days. Apparently not exactly those tunes, but covers like those are typical
