Bob Dylan...concert tonight @ Warfield in San Francisco! Elusive poet intrigues!




The elusive street poet - Bob Dylan - slips out of the musical shadows to appear at a special one-time gig at the Warfield on Market  Street tonight (San Francisco).

The price tag for a ticket is hefty, though.

$60.00

The doors swing open at 5:30 p.m.

The legendary 60's icon is expected to saunter onstage @ 8 p.m.

By the way, Bob Dylan purists  have something to look forward to a little later in the year when the leaves turn crimson and gold and start to flutter to the ground come October.

The 9th installment of a Bootleg Series of tunes will be stocking the shelves of  retail outlets in the Bay area.

"The Whitmark Demos: 1962-1964" are a collection of 47 rough takes of Dylan that have survived the passage of time over the decades.

Along with early renditions of well-known classics such as - “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “The Times They Are A-Changin’,” “Masters of War,” and “Mr. Tambourine Man,” - the must-have packet  will also feature 15 Dylan originals in the demo stage.

Columbia Records has issued a press release in which they note:

"Dylan is accompanied only by his acoustic guitar, harmonica and occasionally piano.”

Although a handful of the catchy ditties have seen the light of day in a dog-eared fashion previously, die-hard fans are excited about snapping up the Columbia release which will be showcased in a legitimate format with linear notes

On Oct. 19th, there will also be a release of a box set with remastered mono versions of Dylan's first eight albums (1962′s Bob Dylan through 1967′s John Wesley Harding).

Cool, eh?




The morning after!
