On Tuesday evening, Bob Dylan brought the European leg of his Rough and Rowdy Ways tour to a close after making a stop at Dublin’s 3Arena. In an interesting series of recent events, Dylan has integrated purposeful cover placements into the final slot of his setlists at the last three stops of his run. During his concert on Nov. 20 in Belfast, Dylan debuted Van Morrison’s deep cut, “Going Down to Bangor.” And, on Nov. 23 in Killarney, he returned to the Paul Brady-associated traditional “Lakes of Pontchartrain,” ending a 34-year gap in plays. Both covers nodded to the Greenwich Village bard’s previous collaborators and performed in those friends’ hometowns. Sticking to the trend, Dylan went with The Pogues’ “A Rainy Night in Soho” as the final piece of his Dublin closeout, as an offering of admiration for the late Shane MacGowan.

Trey Anastasio pulled into Syracuse, N.Y. last night for the final stop on his November tour with the Trey Anastasio Band. The Phish frontman’s side ensemble delivered a string of increasingly impressive performances in their first headline tour since 2023, and the instrumental mastery on display in Tuesday night’s show proved that the band was only building steam.

On Saturday, Nov. 22, The New Mastersounds touched down in New York for the last show in the last full leg of their TTFN Tour – shorthand for “Ta-Ta for Now.” After 26 years of touring abroad, the British four-piece funk powerhouse announced their final US tour in the spring and have celebrated their live legacy with a sprawling cross-country tour since. The band’s final stop in Brooklyn, preceding a New Year’s Eve double-header in Denver, served as a fond farewell to stateside fans through 27 tracks reflecting the vibrant whole of their catalog. Highlights within the mix included the opening treatment of “Do the Sausage Roll,” sit-ins from members of Norside Trio on “102%, “No Way” and “You Mess Me Up,” Shira Ellis’ guest vocals on “Never Did I Ever Stop Loving You” covers of Stretch’s “Why Did You Do It” and the Grateful Dead’s “Help on the Way” and a final encore of “Land of Nod” and “Nervous.”
