Bob Dylan fans are saying the same thing despite being 'in tears' at Liverpool gig

fans had the same complaint after attending his gig in .

Most of the revellers at the Bank Arena in the city were overjoyed to see the 83-year-old music legend perform his Rough and Rowdy Ways material earlier this month. Some said they even left "in tears" having witnessed the entertainment icon dazzle the 11,000-strong crowd.

But despite this, the biggest gripe concerned the lighting at the venue, which is on the King's Dock in the city. Dylan decided on just the four bulbs to illuminate the stage - and many claimed this wasn't enough.

One user writing to Bob Dylan on /X revealed: "Why no lighting at Liverpool?? Most disappointing gig in more than 50 years. Came to see the legendary Bob Dylan but never saw him!" But another user replied: "Didn't you go to hear them?" Another asked: "It was so dark! I thought they’d put a spotlight in him or something. Couldn’t bloody see him!"

Didn’t mind having my phone locked away but the stage lighting was so dark you could barely make anyone out. Music was good though so guess that’s the main thing."

But after praising the gig, the same Twitter user revealed a man in front of them spent the whole gig "scrolling during the concert". One horrified fan replied: "Unbelievable, you’d wonder why people spend good money to go to a concert and look at Facebook or get so wasted they don’t remember the gig the next day."

One choked-up user who attended the gig wrote: "Bob Dylan in Liverpool was amazing and beautiful. Why am I in my hotel room crying about seeing an 83-year-old play a harmonica. God damn." Another replied oozing the same enthusiasm, adding: "I welled up at a few points in it, genuinely unbelievable vocals from a man his age."
