So I was new to a Bob Dylan reddit page, like the main page/sub Reddit for Bob Dylan fans… wasn’t even in the group that long, maybe like 2 weeks before being unceremoniously BLOCKED FOR LIFE.

It’s ridiculous, I was learning and discovering this guy who is from Minnesota and these entitled members (probably bunch of old people) are like “oh is this guy doesn’t know anything about Bob Dylan, he’s probably a troll, let’s block him”.
It makes my blood boil, because I didn’t even do anything wrong. THIS IS AGEISM! I tried to appeal/contact the Bob Dylan moderator and he’s like “sorry, but I’m not unblocking you”. WTF….

I’m still sorta new to Bob Dylan but last week I heard a song something “gonna get stoned” or something?? What’s the song called please? I can’t seem to find it.. thanks

Haha, helluva song

I’m struggling to find videos on YouTube of Jakob talking about his dad and I’m quickly discovering that he doesn’t really want to bring up his dad. For an example, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Jakob and Bob on the same stage.
Does anyone know what their relationship is like? Is he not proud of his dad or something? Or is he proud but just chooses not to talk about him? Thanks

Bob is turning 85 this month, May 24 I believe and I’m from the UK, and I’m just getting submerged in his music and hating myself for not getting into his music decades sooner.
ANYWAYS, I really want to see him while he’s still alive. Bob is at the age where he really could go at anytime. It’s 2026 right now, I saw that he’s got North American tour dates starting in June and ending in mid-August. Is it likely he will come to Europe, possibly UK later this year 2026? I hope so! I will buy a ticket immediately. I’m a little worried he won’t come here. Thanks

I’ve noticed in many of his photographs, his nails are long. Did this help him play the guitar a little better? Or was he just like.. I don’t want to say poor, but he did crash at peoples homes a few times, so naturally keeping up with appearances would sometimes slip away from him?

It’s called Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Is it a good movie? And also where can I watch this?

I’m slowly getting into all of Bob Dylan’s stuff and I want to watch this… how good is it?

I’m asking because in ‘Like A Rolling Stone’, he talks as though from experience, “how does it feel that your life is so sh**ty?”, he didn’t say those exact words but he implies it several times.

I’m kinda new to Bob Dylan so please don’t crucify me in the comment section.

I feel like a kid in a candy store right now because after listening to Bob’s debut self-titled 1962 album, I’m in love with it! I want to kick myself for waiting so long to get into Bob!!! I feel so disappointed in myself! Obviously I’ve heard of Blowing in the Wind and Subterranean Homesick Blues, those 2 songs are quite famous however aside from those two, I’ve never actually listened to Bob’s other stuff. Well I’m 40 and Bob turns 85 this month, It’s never too late to get into a person!

Anyways, so far I’ve listened to his debut album Bob Dylan (1962) and now I’m making my way through The Freewheelin’ album for the first time and really enjoying the lyricism more than anything else. I’m realising that listening to his songs is like reading a novel or a book! I’ve decided I want to go see him perform live while he’s still alive! Anyways, that’s all I wanted to say really!!!! New fan right here! If you can suggest to me what other Bob albums to listen to then please tell me! I’ve only listened to 2 so far, his debut and Freewheellin. Thank you!

So my friend was like when you go see the Michael (2026) biopic in a couple of days, under no circumstances buy Pepsi. So i said why the hell not, and he just said trust me bruh, like that's exactly what he said! Can someone explain to me big deal is???????? Why can't i buy pepsi?
