I’m thrilled to present Blog Dylan — a community collaboration!
On December 16th some of the finest bloggers in the wild world wide web gather to share their thoughts, feelings, memories, reviews and critiques of Bob Dylan — the man, the music, the legend. Love Dylan? Loathe him? Somewhere in between? Everyone knows who he is and most have an opinion. Come on by and have your say!
By way of introduction, I share my impressions of a Bob Dylan concert. The aforementioned bevy of bodacious bloggers delve deep and in different directions, so visit them all for their unique perspectives, insights and stories. They’re all music aficionados and welcome your comments and discussions.

It will be 4:00 pm your time. If that seems a little anti-climactic…post at the stroke of (your) midnight and let me know. 🙂

I know this is going to sound a bit southern hemisphericentric, but I’ll post after breakfast on the 16th. My breakfast, that is. Which you are welcome to drop in for, I make a good coffee. Or not. I’ll be afternoon tea-time for you. On Friday. Jeezus, can’t we all just move to the same city?

I adore some southern hemisphericentricity in my afternoon tea-time. I’d be delighted to join you. I hear there’s a new media room in the Carolinas! It could be our great trek 2018.

By my reckoning, this is the landmass (if you could flatter it with that name) closest to the half-way point. You will notice that the airstrip takes up most of the dry ground, but I hope there might be room for a picnic table.

It’s called Johnston Atoll, for when you (and others) are booking flights.

Well done arranging this big Boaby festival! I will probably just lurk through this one though… just don’t really have much opinion on old Boaby one way or the other. I’m kinda
… Bobnostic… or something.

Bobnostic! 🙂 Well, I can certainly understand that. Lurking is most welcome!
P.S. Thank you!
