I’m not arguing with you, but I think your definition of “casual knowledge” may be a bit more advanced than most people. I’d argue that +95% of 20-30 year olds have never even heard of those two songs.

Fair, but they are definitely known entities in the Dylan catalogue as opposed to obscurities. Your relatives taste is subjective but I can tell you objectively the sweeping majority of the crowd was loving the show and Bob played with some verve based off the energy and vice versa.

I wasn’t familiar with several of the songs but that didn’t stop me from enjoying them. The Key West song from the newest album was mesmerizing.

He went in and out of several tempos and moods all night. And the accompanying music really gelled with him.
