Fact #39208

When:

Short story:

Bob Dylan performs at The Odeon Theatre, Liverpool, England, UK, Europe.

Full article:

Barry Feinstein (photographer) : We found ourselves in an old abandoned industrial section of the city. These children were running through the streets. I thought it would be great to photograph Bob, a big star name, with them.

Bob had a real soft spot in his heart for kids from lower income families. He loved them and they loved him, even if they didn’t realise who he was.

Vicki Rees (fan) : Dylan was at his best. Those people who walked out saying they wanted the real Dylan really meant they wanted the old Dylan.

Mickey Jones : He always seemed to have a lot of energy. On a number of occasions, Bob and I would jump in a limo after the concert and find an all-night hot dog stand. We would then go back to the hotel and talk about everything under the sun until the sun came up. He would make up for it by sleeping a lot during the day, but no-one slept more than Garth Hudson. I said to him once, ‘Garth, you’re sleeping your life away.’ He just looked straight at me and said ‘Don’t you know about dreams?’
