"if at all possible"

I hope he doesn't attend the award ceremony in Stockholm or wherever because he has a gig playing the Indiana State Fair or something. That would be 100% A+ Gold Star Awesome Fukk-You.

"if at all possible" would seem to indicate Bob would like a bit of rest after the tour concludes at the end of November.

The Nobel ceremonial is on December 10.

Whatever, on to Paducah.

Geez dudes, I posted It's Alright Ma, on page one, video and lyrics.

No skin off my nose though, I love the song.

I looked at my wrist

I punched myself in the face with my fist

I took my potatoes down to be mashed

and made it on over to that Million Dollar Bash"

Patti Smith was there to collect the prize. She sang A hard rain is gonna fall.

Patti is just as prone to memory glitches as any older person, but accepted her failing and persevered just like the trouper she always is. That was good to see. She gave it a Nobel effort.

Thank you for posting that, Lollie, and Glad Yule till dig!

And Timid, I was gonna SAY...

that I thought YOU might have been a better choice,
what with your ability to recall lyrics of Dylan's longer works.

Glad Yule till dig, too!

In Patti's defense, that is a long winded song to sing without notes or it being a regular on a set list.

On the humorous side, how ironic it's a song with the line:
"I'll know my song well before I start singing."

Well, she's got Jet Pilot eyes from her hips on down.
All the bombardiers are trying to force her out of town.
She's five feet nine and she carries a monkey wrench.
She weighs more by the foot than she does by the inch.
She got all the downtown boys, all at her command
But you've got to watch her closely 'cause she ain't no woman
She's a man.

Smith's performance was beautiful, and her hiccup endearing.

hes no just a singer/song writer. apparently his main creative outlet is iron work, he makes big gates and upright structures, huge stuff. seriously, exhibits and all at quite prestigious venues.

i read his volume of autobiography and despite being a good read, came away knowing nothing about the guy.

and he did a christmas album.

He just used to be a kid by the name of Zimmerman from the iron belt who performed on the West Bank in Mpls. In the 60's...who would have thought?

That is one bizzaro ramble, but you know what? In the end it makes sense.

It ain't dogs running free and kind of strange to hear Zimmy reading a script, but


Well, I'm standin' in line in the rain to see a movie starring Gregory Peck
Yeah, but you know it's not the one that I had in mind
He's got a new one out now, I don't even know what it's about
But I'll see him in anything so I'll stand in line
