I think he has.

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it. It is your assumption that I am entitled to it as well that is irritating :D

In other news, I'm unsure which peformance of Bob Dylan I liked in the film "I'm not there". It wasn't Heath Ledger's or Christian Bale's mind. Maybe Bale's "Pastor Jack"

Of course, but you use it every time I bloody speak to you man.

Can you go up to the mirror, place the fourth finger of your right hand so it's touching your thumb and say the word "eggs-aga-ratto" for me please? :D

I really enjoyed that film. Really really enjoyed it. thought Cate Blanchet was really good, in fact they all were. Even the little kid wasn't too annoying

thought the whole 'Billy the Kid' story was excellent

:D

:P

There were huge parts of it that completely baffled me. The Ledger character with the story of Dylan and Sara I only got about a day later!

The Billy Kid analogy was fairly straight forward mind, other than Pat Garrett was played by the same guy who played Mr Jones - I never thought Ballad of a Thin Man was about a real rivallry, more Dylan just swatting a fly - although he had some sympathies for the fly.

Did you check out the free mp3 on the bobdylan.com site? I can't believe he's got that quality of material just lying around. Anyone else that's a top track. And he just never bothered with it.

"Like a Rolling Stone"

By far my favorite Dylan track. I just can't seem to get away from it.

i think he sings honestly. Thats all you can ask for

I agree with this. I like his voice.

I quite liked Slow Train Comin'. Well, Precious Angel is a good song

I quite like slow train coming also. There are a few nice we songs on there. Precious Angel being my fave from that album

Good thread! I grew up listening to dylan. I absolutly love him!

I've not heard "Saved", but don't dislike "Shot of Love" of his overtly religious albums.

I love it when people say they don't like his voice. I suppose the standard response should be "which voice?" - he's got about four or five of them as far as I can work out - depending on which Bob he is at any given time.

Tickets for the great man arent onsale until Monday at 9am here for the Dublin gig.

However my dear Mum wants me to be on the ball at 9am to get her "good seats, up the front" tickets for Cliff and the Shadows then too!

:rolleyes:

In fairness I doubt His Bobness will sell out in 5 minutes so I should be ok for a standing ticket.

Just a warning to any potential ticket buyers, Bob usually plays keyboards on the left hands side of the stage as you look at it, with his back turned slightly, ie facing the people on the right hand side of the stage as you look at it. I remember a gig a few years back and 30% of the audience only saw his back for the entire gig!

He's playing guitar again though, isn't he?

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
