Phantom 2,527 Posted February 4, 2006 Millwall All too true, Mr Zimmerman is not in by any means, poor health. Although that incident regarding chicken faeces, was quite a serious matter for a short time. Dylan himself is quoted to have said that he thought he was about to join Elvis. He didn't state if that was Presley or Costello, I assume it was the former. He will be around for a good 15-20 years, I would admit though he has lost a fair bit of weight, whether or not that was intentionally for the role he played in the movie "Masked and Anonymous" but he did look fairly gaunt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted May 15, 2007 The voice of his generation scares the living bejaysus out of the next.... May 3, 2007 -- KINDERGARTEN kids in ritzy L.A. suburb Calabasas have been coming home to their parents and talking about the "weird man" who keeps coming to their class to sing "scary" songs on his guitar. The "weird" one turns out to be Bob Dylan, whose grandson (Jakob Dylan's son) attends the school. He's been singing to the kindergarten class just for fun, but the kiddies have no idea they're being serenaded by a musical legend - to them, he's just Weird Guitar Guy. A hard rain's gonna fall, so Incey Wincey Spider is gonna have to climb up the spout again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If 'Neighbourhood Bully' is serious political comment then I think Boney M's under-rated 'Belfast' is ripe for re-appraisal. But seriously folks, being a kind of 'floating' Dylanologist, could someone in the know gen us up on his alleged arthritis problems and whether he still smokes, surely the most relevant points here.

"Jokerman" and the mighty "License to Kill" on it. Among us Dylanologists it is the consensus that he gave up smoking and red meat some time in the late nineties. His arthritis I don't know about.

I now know he had a heroin habit and thoughts of suicide: http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/05/24/3224878.htm For all I know, Dylan may indeed have been a suicidal smackhead, but as I've come to realise over the years, he's also nonpareil as a mine of self-mythologising misinformation and obfuscation. If Bob says something is black and white, there's a good chance it's sky blue pink with orange chevrons. Mind you, when you've got nutters like AJ Weberman * rooting through your bins, it's enough to make anyone economical with the actualité. * yes, I'm afraid I did write that somewhat overripe blurb. Interesting film, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was slightly surprised to see that another Bob-related Bob, former hellraiser Mr Neuwirth, is still around. Didn't know this name but goodness, I'd almost say his work with those two Cash classics as impressive if not moreso than the Dylan classics. Sounds like Mr Johnston is quite a loss.

Dylan, playing guitar and singing folk at a Kindergarten. With his money he must get the most elite haze. Given recent events should we start fearing that everybody's favourite folk musician has skeletons in his closet? Personally I'd be devastated as he's one of my favourite singers, hopefully he's just a nice man trying to do the local kids a good turn! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was slightly surprised to see that another Bob-related Bob, former hellraiser Mr Neuwirth, is still around. There wasn't that much made of his death in the media, despite his work with big name musicians like Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. Shame... Anyway, how is Bob Dylan's health doing? He's 75 next year, does anyone have a clue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
