Bob Dylan’s Blog

Bob Dylan was the original counter-cultural folk singer. Without him, the world would be radically different: Activists at love-ins would have nothing to wave their lighters to, sensitive college boys with guitars and political sensibilities would have to find new ways to get laid, and Rolling Stone would have to find 11 more songs for their "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" list (they'd probably add more Beatles).

It's alright Ma (I'm only winning the Pulitzer)

By Bob Dylan

You’ve all probably already heard, but I just won the Pulitzer...the only problem is my award shelf just collapsed under the weight of all the Grammys, Golden Globes, and Hall of Fame plaques...so I'm building a new shelf, which is a lot harder than I thought, man...I figured you just kinda nail a couple boards together, but after six hours all I had was a pile of broken boards and a bunch of bent nails...so I called my favorite carpenter, Jesus...no man, not THE Jesus. Jesus Gonzalez, from San Antonio...so anyway, Jesus told me to just order a shelf from Ikea, but they sent me a box with a bunch of, like, screws and beams or something, man...I guess they don't know what a "shelf" is in Sweden.

I hate Sweden more than anything, man, even more than cottage cheese...so my awards are still scattered all over my floor, and I stepped on my Oscar and my foot is bleeding like crazy...Radiohead can headline Lollapalooza, but they'll never win the Pulitzer, 'cause anyone can sing in falsetto and make weird noises on their guitars...Ever wonder how Thom Yorke got that droopy eye? I heard it was from too many cucumber facemasks.

Bio & Blog

Hey man, been a while since I’ve posted. I’ve been busy, y’know, being a cultural institution and all...also, my typewriter ran out of ink, so I’ve been making more in my bathtub. I think the chemicals are giving me a headache...I heard someone made a movie out of my life, but I didn’t see it. Why not? It’s my life man, I already know what happened...I hope they put in the part where I won half a million dollars playing pool against Norman Mailer...A lot of people know I introduced drugs to The Beatles, which is true, man, but I also introduced drugs to Lenny Bruce...that might have been a mistake...

The answer my friend is blow it out your ass

Hey man, welcome to my first column … Gonna just lay some facts and editorials on ya … Things were better in the good old days, man … Like, in the 1930s… Except for segregation … and the Great Depression … and no electricity … or indoor plumbing … but the music was really good … No one knows this, but I once had a threeway with Judy Collins and Tiny Tim … In 1967 I think it was … Speaking of a “Great Depression,” someone just told me Arrested Development was cancelled … A year ago … I never seen it, though … I can play guitar better than George
