Dylan for You, and the Youth

2006_09_arts_dylan1969.jpgA Benefit for Music for Youth will bring us The Music of Bob Dylan this fall. Will Bob be there? We're hoping so. Those who are on the bill to play a song by Dylan include: Philip Glass, Rosanne Cash, Ryan Adams, Jay Farrar, Bob Mould, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Patti Smith, Phil Lesh, Cat Power, Seal, Lee Ranaldo Project, Medeski Martin & Wood and plenty of others. Including Sandra Bernhard, we hear she does an amazing cover of "Like a Rolling Stone" (not kidding).

The event is November 9th at 8pm at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall. To get tickets, which range from $40 to $125, go here. For a vip ticket, which will cost you $350 to $1000 and includes a reception with the artists, email info@musicforyouth.org.

Meanwhile, Dylan's latest release, Modern Times, is his first to hit #1 in thirty years. He also got an 8.3 on Pitchfork. The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live 1966, The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert got a 10.0.

    Bob Dylan with The Raconteurs

    Thu 11/9 Portland ME Cumberland County Civic Center 7:30PM



    But, if anyone can pull off being in two places at the same time, it would be Bob. The new album is wonderful. My favorite line so far:



    Now they worry and they hurry and they fuss and they fret

    They waste your nights and days

    Them I will forget

    But you I'll remember always
