Interesting to see that she did the old songs. Last time I saw her she didn't do any.

This was a magnifcent gig at the Royal Festival Hall in London where she sang for just under 2 hours without an interval - not always a good idea from an audience point of view, I had to leap up and do some stretches during the encore break as did many others!

She just stood there and sang - with her usual 60s guitar playing, with a percussionist and one other who played banjo/guitar/mandolin/fiddle/keyboard and accordion

A few Dylan songs (no impersonation!), many of her old 60s songs but not unfortunately, Stones in the Road. Usual references to tired feet from marching over the last 50 years of course.
