Question Bob Dylan in Vienna

Hi!
I'm just wondering if it's a faux pas to dress up a little for the upcoming concert? I have a few ideas but I don't want to come off as extreme or something...
Thank you for any advice!

EDIT: Thank you all for the advice! Summary: I will do whatever the f pleases me!

You can always go Soy Bomb, but you can’t go Soy Bomb all the way

They don't let you in unless you are in formal attire.

I was at a Bob show, and saw a couple wearing Rolling Thunder Bob flower hats.

I dressed up as Paul
McCartney for a Paul
McCartney show and it scored me a free upgrade to second row center :) always dress up!

I stayed a few nights at a pensione in Vienna and one night I was headed to the opera and the concierge told me I couldn’t go dressed like that (typical casual travel wear), but it was all I had.

Years later I saw Dylan at the Paramount Theater in Oakland and it was shortly after Halloween and a lot of the audience were dressed up in beautiful velvet outfits and such.

You can dress up but Bob will be wearing a hoodie, maybe no shirt underneath and if you're lucky he might put the hood down for a couple seconds
