Do an album of "The Carpenters" covers. The saccharin level is toxic.

He's tried everything. It hasn't worked.

As long as he keeps his concerts strictly acoustic, sings the songs like how they sound on the record and carries on writing protest songs then I won't turn my back on him.

What if Bob had been the one to butcher Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman? What if O.J. had written Standing in the Doorway?

I guess whoever said all the nutjobs come out on Bob's birthday was right.

Yes, my immediate thought when I saw this thread was "be like O.J.".

Otherwise, nothing.

I've never been a fan of Bob Dylan (or Robert Zimmerman), the person.
I've always been a fan of the music, the songs, the performances that this man has given us in the last fifty years. So whatever happens, how could I turn my back on something that made my life richer for the last thirty or so years? So in that sense: no, there is no turning your back on Bob.

Forming a "supergroup" with Justin Bieber, Ceelo Green, Kanye West, and Britney Spears would push me beyond the limits.

As long as Bob is lead vocalist there would be something worth listening to... but sharing vocals? That might actually be worse than his '60s sound! :shock:

Hammersmith Odeon 93. He was wearing a string vest and playing with Dave Stuart! No but really, my first gig and I f@cking loved it. Really f@cking loved it when everything made sense and will forever.

Turn my back, a wouldn't show you my left hand.

Are you sure that you're thinking of the right show? Jethro Tull played the Hammersmith Odeon in '91...

Maybe they forgot to change the marque and you only thought you were seeing Dylan.

Stranger things have happened...
