Expecting Rain

Bob Dylan before a show. You would be nervous and sweating blood yeah, but apart from that, what the heck would you say?

I need to think a bit more, before I can write what I would say, but I think it would be thrilling to see what the ER folks would say...knees shakin' and all....


I would start with: Ladies and Gentlemen I have the honor and great pleasure to introduce to you tonight .....

oh bla di oh bla da....and so on
(this part is unfinished)



Ladies and Gentlemen here he comes. He's all yours : The one and only Bob Dylan!!

Good question.....Gonna have to give this one some thought.... Could be really fun.....
considering what he is ok with now, it sure doesn't seem lke too much would be off limits......

I think it could be fun.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I hope you're all thoroughly inebriated, if not, prepare to be disappointed, it's Columbia recording artist Bob Dylan!

I wouldn't say anything and just let him walk onto the stage. I probably wouldn't last long in the introducing game.

I would like to see the expression on your face though? You would say something with your bodylanguage you see!!

Ladies and gentlemen : we're so sorry Justin Bieber couldn't make it. In his place, please welcome ... Columbia recording artist ...

Not sure what I would say but one thing I wouldn`t say is that " Columbia recording artist " crap. Hate hearing that.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! Here comes a rock and roll LEGEND who is contractually obligated to play for at least 85 minutes and who WILL NOT recieve a check for this show until the agreed-upon 85 minute set is performed. Put your hands together (or don't,) for BOB DYLAN!"

Ladies & Gentelmen,....my old friend,.... Bob!!!!

Highway to Highlands
East to West
Singing his songs as only he knows best!

Please welcome,
Bob Dylan

I would say
"Ladies and..."

no, first I would clear my throat
then I would say

"Ladies and Gentlemen and the rest of you... unfortunately performing fulled clothed, Bob Dylan."

I bet he'd get a big round of applause of appreciation

Oh, you're incorrigible....

Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome, Bob Dylan

It is my honor to introduce to you a man, a poet and a musician who IS America to the core, but whose influence is so vast that a single continent could not hope to stop him.
America you can only hope to contain him.
Bob Dylan

What Mr Moth said. Nothing more needed.

"OH MY GOD!!! IT'S BOB DYLAN AND HE'S GOING TO PLAY MUSIC FOR US!!!!!"

If it was in my country, i should tell that he is an artist we missed. The real autor of almost all those briliant methaforas we used to love in our favorite artists singing in our language. The man who actually made those silly love songs for teenagers the real art, the real poetry. But after all that deep-felt speach somebody should tell me: "I still don't understand why have i listen to it. I've heard his records, he's just boring..."

you are the third person inside of a month or two who has told me this... hahaha I'm starting to believe it... and get a complex... hahahahaha

oh man I even screwed this up.... it should read fully not fulled... GAD

Ok folks who think they have a devine right to be on the rail - elbows out and 1, 2, 3, go - it's Bob Dylan!

"Oh look, there's Bob! Say 'Hi' to Bob!"

And now, a man who has made anonymity a household name…

a man who wears his heart on his sleeve, and spaghetti sauce on his tie…

I introduce a man who has seen it all, but has understood very little of it…

a man who is clever and witty, and I could go on and on, except I’m having a terrible time reading his handwriting...

a man who needs no introduction. However, he insists upon it... Ladies and Gents, Boys and Girls, Bob Dylan!

Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for flying ModBob. Our captain this evening, Mister Dylan, would like to inform passengers that he is currently experiencing turbulence over the sanity region, which is expected to last for the next 90 minutes, but not to panic as this happens every evening around now. Those of a nervous disposition are advised to make an orderly exit immediately, through doors located to the sides of the auditorium. Sick bags are located under your seats, and oxygen masks are available should you find yourself convulsing with laughter at any stage. In the event of any songs from the last three albums, or Mr Dylan touching the hazardous keyboard by mistake, please place your head between your knees and ram your fingers into your ears until security come and pat you on the back to indicate it is safe to resume. For those having second thoughts and with stomach linings still intact, we'd like to point out that the pub over the road is serving a selection of hot and cold beverages and snacks and has a jukebox which plays those great albums he did from the 60s and 70s, with the real singing on them. Before we land, please take time to acquaint yourselves with the small print on the back of your tickets - particularly the parts about inner ear burstage, uncontrollable rage and our no-refund policy on that precious period of your life.

Here to play you Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat and other songs...Bob Dylan!
