The times have certainly changed: Bob Dylan performed before a crowd of 6,000 people in authoritarian China on Wednesday, just days after the Chinese government arrested famous artist Ai Wei Wei.

Tickets sold for upwards of $50—a big sum in China.
Separately, Chinese authorities announced Thursday that they are investigating Ai Wei Wei for “economic crimes.”
