TOUR NEWS
- Dylan Broke Out His Most Played Song After Six Years (Stereogum) [-3]
- "“All Along The Watchtower” has been performed more than any other song by Bob Dylan over the years, so we were shocked when he brought it out".
- Outlaw Tour Hits Tinley Park with Industry’s Oldest Touring Artists (Lansing Journal) [3]
- "Both of my sons caught on to what a special thing it was to see these legends in concert as they texted their friends with stories of John Mellencamp’s humor and profanity, Bob Dylan’s god-like presence, and Willie Nelson’s 92-year-old crystal-clear singing voice.”"
- Outlaw Music Fest is a Night of Legends and Classics at Star Lake (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette) [3]
- "And how weird a choice is “Under the Red Sky”? Dylan’s penchant for messing with the arrangements and cadences of his songs has only gotten more exaggerated in recent decades as he’s continued to strip out the melodies and sing in a halting fashion."
- Last Night in Cincinnati (Flagging Down) [5]
- "...some asshole will feel entitled to yank on about frisbee golf while one of the great musical artists of several generations performs one of his most indelible compositions in his eighth decade."
Top News & Links
Our favorite Dylan-related stories and links
- Bob Dylan and The Band, The 1974 Live Recordings (Hot Press) [10]
- "On 'Like A Rolling Stone', the cascade of keyboards before the vocals even begin always made me see Manuel and Hudson in my mind’s eye; and as the men’s voices join Dylan’s on the choruses, the song is fresh and new and exciting, over and over again."
- Washing the Spit Out of Dylan's Microphone (Flagging Down) [8]
- "My job was to take care of all the microphone cables, all the microphones, check on the inventory, make sure Bob’s mic had been washed out and cleaned."
- Never Seen No Place Like This Before — Dylan Fall ‘99 (Peter Stone Brown) [8]
- "I contemplated leaning over and saying, "Are you aware you're waltzing to a song about a mobster getting his head blown off in a clam bar, but didn't."
