Here's info on the Palacio (though this event is not yet listed): http://palaciodelosdeportes.net/
And Mr. Dylan's tour schedule. He's doing a big Brazil/Argentina tour and CR is on the return leg:

You are aware of the age-group of the majority audience here? Bob Dylan will soon be 71--a little deference and respect if not awe are due, I think.

Bob Dylan's my hero, but I just don't see him going over very well in Latin America. Brilliant lyrics that can't be understood by the Spanish speaking audience, a sandpaper voice (that will make it difficult for those with English to decipher the lyrics) and music that's not made for dancing.

Elton John, Metallica and Bryan Adams-si! Bob Dylan-creo que no!

Give me a break. I would not waste 5 bucks to see the idiot. No voice, no stage talent and nothing to add to current culture. I saw him and met with him in the 60's while in NY working theater. He was then a spoiled brat, NTM a jerk who just happened to get a few albums and the hippie culture bought them.

Best to him in his later years and I hope that he can find a following. That is what entertainers need to keep going on. I have no problem with that.

Hope those that attend enjoy the show...
