Ok, sorry ya'll for sucking as a mod these days. I've been very busy with real life and all that jazz.

But today is our favorite man's 68th birthday! So feel free to post comments, picspams, vids, whatever you want either in the comments to this or in a whole other post wishing him a happy birthday! :D

So Happy Birthday Mr. Dylan! :D

uh, oh, I'm late wishing a Happy Birthday to Bob this year also. I'm going to try to be on DW more often, so I'll work on some Bob stuff.

So wishing he adds a concert date in Oregon this year. I can't handle Seattle's bumbershoot where he's playing.

I get to go see Bob on the 29th of August! My 20 year old daughter who first secretly liked Dylan and now openly has decided that she will join my husband and I. She's never come with us before and wants to be able to say she's seen him live. Makes me happy.

(I know I've been incredibly absent around here, so I'm not sure if I'm 100% positive on how to do it, but I think you're just supposed to post like you would at any other community and since I'm the maintainer, I'll approve it. I only put it on an approval basis, in case this place got spammed by random non-Dylan related crap.)

OMG THAT IS SO AWESOME!!! You must be soooo excited!!! :D :D :D If you want you're more than welcome to make a post here about your concert experience. I have always wanted to go to one of his shows, and almost did last summer, but it was sadly canceled (talk about a bummer!).

(Thanks - my problem was that I couldn't find the 'post' button/click spot. I finally found it above the page itself in the banner about me. I'll try it after the concert.)

I'm so sorry you didn't get to see him. And you've never seen him? Way not fair. My husband turned me onto Dylan in the mid 80's and we've gotten to go to many concerts. Wish I could trade one of them in so you could see him. We are leaving our house guest behind to go because nothing tops in priority.

(Totally cool, and btw I approved your post! :D )

I've never seen him. It is a total bummer. I've never really had the opportunity. Partly because I am 21 years old and have been a fan since I was 14, and well, my parents never cared for him and were never invested in helping me see him (I live fairly close to Chattanooga and he did play here once, but I was still in high school, didn't have a car and my parents were not going to give me money to go see him, needless to say it broke my heart) and to add insult to injury the only time he came close enough to where I live (which might as well be the backwoods of TN) was last summer when he ALMOST played near Knoxville, and I fortunately had the money and even bought the ticket...only to have the promoter cancel the show like a month before it happened. I don't know why it seems like the universe is against me seeing him, LOL!! It's horrible!! I guess I can only comfort myself with bootlegs....
