Bob Dylan i Mark Knopfler na trasie

[numitor]

Robson, padł tu wcześniej argument, że ja piszę tylko moje domysły. No to załączam to, co powiedział prezydent Obama po koncercie w Białym Domu:

"Here’s what I love about Dylan: He was exactly as you’d expect he would be. He wouldn’t come to the rehearsal; usually, all these guys are practicing before the set in the evening. He didn’t want to take a picture with me; usually all the talent is dying to take a picture with me and Michelle before the show, but he didn’t show up to that. He came in and played “The Times They Are A-Changin’.” A beautiful rendition. The guy is so steeped in this stuff that he can just come up with some new arrangement, and the song sounds completely different. Finishes the song, steps off the stage — I’m sitting right in the front row — comes up, shakes my hand, sort of tips his head, gives me just a little grin, and then leaves. And that was it — then he left. That was our only interaction with him. And I thought: That’s how you want Bob Dylan, right? You don’t want him to be all cheesin’ and grinnin’ with you. You want him to be a little skeptical about the whole enterprise. So that was a real treat."

I to jest właśnie cały Dylan. Ten sam, który dawno temu napisał w jednym tekście [It's All Ma, (I'm Only Bleeding)]: But even the president of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked

Wspaaaaaaaaaniaaaaałyyyyy cytat!

Dziękuję Tobie bardzo Chris, że go tutaj umieściłeś.

Mam nadzieję, że to komukolwiek da coś do myślenia, ale moja nadzieja raczej tylko nadzieją pozostanie.

Jeszcze raz Ci dziękuję, chyba sobie wydrykuję te słowa i powieszę nad łóżkiem, żeby jakoś odreagować dyskusje o tym, że Dylan się "skompromitował w Berlinie".
