Bob Dylan Scares Children

Imagine you have a young child -- let's say in kindergarten -- who comes home from eating paste one day, visibly shaken, and tells you that a "weird man" has been showing up at school lately and playing "scary songs" on his guitar for kids. Any parent would assume that some perv is trolling the playground. Red-fucking-alert, right?

Well, in the case of one Calabasas, California kindergarten class, the weird old man scaring the shit out of snot-nosed munchkins just happened to be freewheelin' folk legend Bob Dylan, who has been visiting the class on occasion to hang with his grandson.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "The kids have been coming home and telling their parents about the weird man who keeps coming to class to sing scary songs on his guitar."

"He’s been visiting the school just for fun, but the kids don’t appreciate they are in the presence of a musical legend. They just think of him as the weird guitar guy."

Tangled up in Jew
I have no idea what this page is about ( besides Bob being Jewish of course) but I do find the title very funny.

Bob Dylan saves lives, and writes music that inspires almost every musical artist since 1960 and on. But George Bush, Captain Planet and Ronald McDonald are childhood heros, so kids are fucked up enough, following some scary people. They'd pick John Wayne Gacey or Michael Jackson for a playmate over say, Buddha, Jesus or fuckin' Arlo Guthrie.

Lets round up Joan Biaz, Bob Dylan, and Cat Stevens and give them all a hard time. whatever I was going to put the Dixie Chicks in there, but definnitly not the same level.

Dylan is one of the most important singers and song writters for a cause. I agree with
Scoodleboop 100%.

I met Dylan once when I used to follow the Grateful Dead around, he even scared me.

Subterranean Homesick Blues has always been in my all-time Top 40.

"20 years of schoolin and they put you on the day shift." They just don't write 'em like that any more.

What in the world are you guys talking about? The bit about Dylan being a perv was a joke. Nobody is actually accusing him of anything. confused
