It's a dull cloudy noon here and i thought we could start another Dylan game . This one's pretty simple though . I ask one Dylan related question and if you know the answer then it's your turn to ask . The questions could be about anything Dylan related : lyrics , personal life , history , clothes , NET statistics ( ex. was this song played in 1999 ) e.t.c


Let's start with something very easy :

What's a good car to drive after a war?


Once again i apologise if i have any grammar or spelling mistakes :wink:

What was the name of the ship Bob owned in the '80s, and where did she sink?

Come on folk and help me. I probably drack too much today, (it´s Bob Dylan`s birthday anyway). It was mentioned in Chronicles - somewhere south...wasn´t it his son who backed in the harbour? But sorry - no memory of details...

I can't find the name of his ship, but it hit a reef in Panama and sunk. Now, who's got the name?

I dunno, it was a genuine question! I'll need a bit of documentary evidence to accept that!

Stephen, you're totally derailing the game. Not that it really got off the ground yet.

What I said was an educated guess already. I know I read somewhere that was where it was, but I also read it was somewhere else, and I don't recall which they said was true.

Bob Dylan owns a coffee house in Santa Monica. I guess that's not the answer though.

Cantos is the singing of a poem.

Coffee spoons is from a T S Elliot poem about the disillusionment of life?

If either answers are correct, here is my question. Bob had two motorcycle accidents [at least ] while growing up in Hibbing; who or what did they involve?

a) two passing trains - he started before realizing there was one from the other direction and threw himself on the ground between tracks

b) a child and a tangerine/apple/ball, depending on the account - child running after item from between parked cars - child unharmed

Somebody else ask another question for me.....

Asking the question is the hard part!!!! Everyone know a lot about Bob--and my mind goes blank when I need to think up something. How about, on Bob's trip down Hwy 61, how many cities and what were they, did Bob stay in before getting to New York?
