Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Steve Latimer Date: 03 Oct 01 - 10:35 AM Mousethief, Why do you bother to rise to this bait? |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: mousethief Date: 03 Oct 01 - 12:03 PM Sheer boredom? |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: GUEST,The girl by the whirlpool Date: 03 Oct 01 - 12:27 PM It's because mousethief really does want to make as many threads as possible be about himself. Is there anything about Bob Dylan that mousethief has said in this thread that he hasn't said about Bob Dylan in many other threads? No. I thought not. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Big Tim Date: 03 Oct 01 - 01:41 PM Looking for a new fool? This is getting all rather too silly. Maybe Mousethief is right, Dylan is a religion. As I said on a previous Dylan thread I used to have a t-shirt "Dylan for God". Maybe LH is right, we just LOVE the man. When all is said and all is done it's all just a matter of taste. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 03 Oct 01 - 02:37 PM Nice to see that Bob can still amuse people! He was hilarious back in the early days, so they say. Kind of like Charlie Chaplin, the little tramp thing. I just don't know who is more popular with our GUESTS...Dylan or Mousethief. - LH |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Big Tim Date: 03 Oct 01 - 05:31 PM It is indeed getting too silly! |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Bert Date: 03 Oct 01 - 07:58 PM Bob Dylan, a songwriter whose great songs were spoiled by a forced, whiny presentation. |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Big Tim Date: 04 Oct 01 - 01:52 AM Ouch! Still - interesting to hear your opinion Bert. However for us BD fans the voice is a major part of the attraction and the fascination. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Jack the Sailor Date: 04 Oct 01 - 12:36 PM It started getting silly when someone said that Dylan is the King of Rock. Pretty early in the process as I recall.... ;) |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: GUEST,Mr. Dabone Date: 04 Oct 01 - 01:35 PM Wow, I'm glad to see the thread has illicited some passionate responses. A pleasant surprise! I threw the thread out there because of my over-the-top admiration for Dylan. I was most impressed by Little Hawk's summation of the Dylan phenomena, particularly this passage: "There's a lot more happening here than a mere pop idol phenomenon. The best songwriters are among the important philosophers of their time, and there's not one other alive who can match Bob Dylan in that sort of impact on society at present". You took the words right out of my mouth, brother! |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Jack the Sailor Date: 04 Oct 01 - 01:44 PM I Think Mr. Dylans direct impact on society abated to next to nothing some time in the late 70's. madonna and Britney Spears have a hundred times more impact today. But not for the good of society I fear. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Steve Latimer Date: 04 Oct 01 - 01:53 PM Jack, Although I agree to a large extent, I think it's pretty obvious that Bob is once again influencing young people. I don't like to stereotype, but I'd guess that the first few posts to this thread were from people under 25. I have talked to a number of people from their generation who are just discovering Bob. Although I don't think that we'll convert many Brittany Spears fans. Let's just hope he keeps putting out material as strong as his last few albums. He'll influence many more. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Jack the Sailor Date: 04 Oct 01 - 02:43 PM I'm glad that some younger people are listening to his stuff rather than that other stuff. Give me Bob over Kid Rock and Korn any day. But I don't think he has the effect on society he once had or even the influence those musicians currently have. I always liked Bob's music. But there is a lot of stuff I like more. Currently, Dave Matthews, Billy Bragg, Sheryl Crow, and Bare Naked Ladies. All of these have at least as much to say as Mr. Dylan does. But then my favourite quote about music, which I live by to this day, comes from a Rolling Stones Song. I know, Its only Rock and Roll but I like it! |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 04 Oct 01 - 03:07 PM Oh, Madonna and Britney Spears have a lot of impact all right...and so do McDonalds hamburgers...but on WHAT??? Nothing much of any lasting value, that's for sure! There's a difference between deep water, and the foamy bubbles that float around on the top of it. - LH |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: mousethief Date: 04 Oct 01 - 03:59 PM And somebody in the deep water, about halfway down, with their feet in a bucket of quick-dry cement. Dylan, Dylan we adore thee.... |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 04 Oct 01 - 08:44 PM Hey, to compare Bob Dylan with Britney Spears is like comparing Shakespeare with Alfred E. Neumann or Charlie Chaplin with the Three Stooges! Gimme a break!
"Praise Bob from whom all blessings flow
Bob be with you till we meet again Eh, Alex? Hee! Hee! - LH |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Beer Date: 04 Oct 01 - 09:56 PM No he is not the King of Rock, but a lover of Dylan I can't help but say that my favoriate rock album is his Budhkan double al.p. |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: catspaw49 Date: 04 Oct 01 - 10:15 PM HAWK!!!!How dare you say that a McDonald's Hamburger has no lasting value? Man, I've had nausea for hours after eating one and the nether breath produced is simply amazing in it's lingering qualities. Floating a Big Mac Air Biscuit has been known to sterilize frogs within 150 yards! Whatever they use that they are passing off as meat is chemically altered to produce indigestion and farts that will knock a buzzard off a shitwagon. The only time I have ever been known to have a Big Mac Attack is about 20 minutes after I eat one. I have similar experiences with donuts from "your guys" which you have now foisted off on us. Their coffee is hotter than McDonalds even!!! And do they keep all the filling up their in Canada? I mean there sure as hell ain't any in them down here!! As for Bob......King of Rock? NFW....but I still love him. Spaw |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 04 Oct 01 - 10:39 PM Ummm... Great analysis, Spaw. LOL! Look, I meant "lasting value" in a positive sense, okay? Geez. McDonalds hamburgers and Britney Spears...what a combo. Have a Britney-Burger! To go. And then there's Madonna..."22 billion served"...I tell ya, it's some kind of a plot. America conquers the world with junk food and sex. Ouch. I have similar experiences with donuts from "your guys" which you have now foisted off on us. Their coffee is hotter than McDonalds even!!! And do they keep all the filling up their in Canada? I mean there sure as hell ain't any in them down here!! I don't quite follow you on that. What do you mean "all the filling up their in Canada"??? Up their what? Filling? Do you mean iron filings? Are they putting iron filings in our donuts now? This would be a good way to make use of the worn bits off hockey skates, so I'm all for it, as long as its Americans that get to eat the stuff, and they don't sell it up here! The typical Tim Hortons donut is indeed a product in which Canada can take pride...the cops in Toronto recently rated it the WORST all round donut in 7 different donut shop chains!!! Man, was Tim Hortons ever ticked off at them! They stopped giving them complementary coffees. Now that you mention it, Tim Hortons coffee makes great paint remover, specially when it's hot, but it's damned hard to clean up the mess afterward, that's the only trouble, specially if you put in creamer. - LH |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: catspaw49 Date: 04 Oct 01 - 11:08 PM Hell Hawk, I had so many their and there there that their "their" that was there just slipped through there as they're apt to do if you let yourself go there. BTW, a Spears burger at McD's would be a McBoob....goes along with their McCluck, McMoo, McOink, McCarp and of course the Double Plotcher with cheese. Spaw |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 04 Oct 01 - 11:24 PM In Orillia, it's everything with cheese. Cheese cheesies with three cheese toppings. I kid you not. I swear, this town must be in hock to the dairy industry or something. It's a sickness. Has Dylan written anything with the word "cheese" in it? Hey, yeah, in "Million Dollar Bash"..."Turtle, that friend of theirs with his checks all forged, and his cheeks in a chunk, and his cheese in the cash...they're all gonna be there at that Million Dollar Bash" Wow. Ooooo-wee! Gotta go check out Bobdylan.com for more! - LH |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 04 Oct 01 - 11:29 PM Hmmm...nope. Million Dollar Bash is the ONLY Dylan song listed with the word "cheese" in it. Not only that, there is not one single Dylan song on record with either the word "flagrant" or the word "dubious" in it. I know. I've looked. This is not good. I am gonna contact Bob and make sure he does something about it ASAP. :-) - LH |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: GUEST,dABONE Date: 05 Oct 01 - 12:23 AM Yo Hawk, in how many songs does Dylan use the word "booty"? |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Oct 01 - 12:33 AM Hang on... |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Oct 01 - 12:37 AM Well, it appears that there are no Dylan songs with "booty" in them. This is sort of a relief, actually. :-) I'm still surprised that the word "flagrant" doesn't show up anywhere in his catalog, though. - LH |
|
Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: GUEST,Dabone Date: 05 Oct 01 - 11:58 AM Well, he does says "booty call" on Cry A While from the new album. The King of Rock!! |

Subject: RE: Bob Dylan is the King Of Rock From: Little Hawk Date: 13 Oct 01 - 10:19 PM Ah...didn't know that. Go Bob! - LH |
