| protest or love songs....which are best? | | So, a question for Bob Dylan fans. Do you prefer listening to the way that good ol' bob can put the nail on the head with lines like "rob you with a fountain pen" when he is protesting about the state of society or do you prefer his way with words and poetry in his love songs? | |

| | Bob Dylan and his Idiot Wind... | | The answer for Bob Dylan's neighbors may not be blowin' in the wind, but the problem seems to be. Some of Dylan's downwind neighbors have complained to the fuzz about the smell from the outhouse on his Malibu, CA property.“It’s a scandal — ‘Mr. Civil Rights’ is killing our civil rights,” said David Emminger “It started in September. I’d go into the front yard and get nauseous,” said Cindy Emminger, 42. “I couldn’t figure out at first where the smell was coming from.” “We both have allergies and are sensitive to chemicals,” Emminger said. “I finally noticed that they had moved the porta-potty directly in front of my front door. I figured out that the smell was coming from that.” The outhouse is for employees of Bob Dylan. Apparently the minstrel of working class ditties has a strict "seperate but unequal" policy towards those who don't have gold records under their belt. He'll hire you to clean up his bathroom, but expects you to head out to the "40 yard dash" if nature calls on you to actually use one.How does it Feel Bob.. How does it feel? Brings a whole new meaning to "Idiot Wind" now doens't it.... | |

| Bob Dylan... Sell out or not? | | Do you consider Bob Dylan being a sell out when he started playing electrical music?My own answer would be that it's kind of stupid to call him a sell out just becouse he changed his musical direction. I mean he can do what he wants just like the rest of us. | |

| Bob Dylan drunk on stage | | My husband said he went to a show where it seemed Dylan was drunk on stage. He said it was so bad that he left the show. It was at Michigan State years ago. I told him that it might have been his voice and he couldn't tell the difference. Don't get me wrong, I love the man, but his voice has gotten very bad. I am sure my voice would be like that if I sang that much and from doing all the drugs he's done. | |
| | Bob Dylan played at a fairground | | When I first met my husband in college in 1995, we had a discussion about Dylan. He said that Dylan played at a fairground somewhere in Michigan. I didn't believe him, but he insists it's the truth. We haven't brought it up for awhile and he could very easily be pulling my leg. | |
