“#Bob Dylan returns to stage for virtual ‘Shadow Kingdom’ show<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

After a year and a half of no live performances due to the coronavirus pandemic, Bob Dylan returned to a concert stage \u2014 virtually, that is \u2014 on Sunday. <\/p>\n

His show, titled \u201cShadow Kingdom,\u201d lasted for less than an hour and livestreamed for fans who paid $25 to watch through the platform Veeps. <\/p>\n

The 80-year-old singer fronted a four-piece band in a club in a wooden hut, app<\/a>earing in black-and-white and in several different outfits. He performed for audience members \u2014 who were really actors \u2014 who seemed to pay little attention and did not applaud him. He also did not speak to his virtual audience.<\/p>\n

The man behind hits such as \u201cLike a Rolling Stone\u201d and \u201cTangled Up in Blue\u201d last performed live in December 2019, with COVID-19 bringing an end to his \u201cNever Ending\u201d tour that began in 1988. For over three decades, Dylan played 3,066 shows, with 78 in 2019 and 84 in 2018. Dylan\u2019s band has changed over the years, although his bass guitarist Tony Garnier has been with him since 1989.<\/p>\n

Dylan\u2019s band included accordion and upright bass players on many songs but did not feature a drummer, as the songs were more folk, blues and country than rock \u2018n\u2019 roll. Because of his wardrobe changes and the shifting placement of his band, viewers knew right away that the livestream did not run straight through \u2014 it was instead pre-recorded on a soundstage over several days.<\/p>\n
