In the sense that I went to see Robert Allen Zimmerman
on Saturday night and he rocked the Blues...
What a treat what better to come home from the most Entertaining 3 weeks of my life to be serenaded by the Man himself!
Instead of boring you with the intimate details of a show where I only knew 4 songs... (So the stats which I managed to work out... I own 6 Albums... granted 2 are greatest hits and Best of and another 1 is the soundtrack for im not there but within those 6 albums there are 9 CDs I feel that I am a reasonably educated Dylan fan... alas alas 4 songs and 2 were the encore... Better get myself up to speed on the rest of his 34 albums!) which you can adequatley

I am going to tell you why I like Bob Dylan...
I love the fact that he cant sing, that hes so far off the note the band has to change key for him (so maybe not that much but a bit) i love that his songs idolise 60s America, and the free generation that lived, I love that he was harrased offstage when he did something different and "went electric", but then he kept doing it anyway and look at us now, I love that he revolutionised music as we know it, he challenged the conventional pop song by releasing 6 minutes of Like a rolling stone, I love his stand for non-violence and justice and the poetry written in his songs that reflect this, I love that despite the image he portrayed he met Jesus and was "born again" and the impact that this had not just on his music but on his life, i love the fact that he is a private man, that he isnt about the stardom and the fame, that he plays the music and that he is just a great old fella...
He has been called a "master poet, caustic social critic and intrepid, guiding spirit of the counterculture generation..." and that is the 69 year old Legend that I witnessed on Saturday Night!
So basically Anna signed us up for the V 48 hour Film competition where we have 48 Hours to make a short film under 7 minutes.
