The DefDylan hat makes it to the Atlantic Ocean! Just over there is the hats birthplace. Out to the windy beach! @definitelydylan.bsky.social @suemyassoff.bsky.social Sue see earlier post in this series for acknowledgement.

A week ago it was at the Bob Dylan Book Cub on Zoom for Andrew Muir's Bob Dylan and William Shakespeare.

Inspired by Sue's views from motel windows on her we hope endless tours with Dylan, my Definitely Dylan hat visits the home of the Durham Bulls near where the movie Bull Durham was filmed. Where will it go next? Lots of places.

connect the dots...Lonesome comes up as down goes the day…This ocean of hours I’m all the time drinking…time is an ocean but it ends at the shore…no one ever saw me here at all except the girl from the red river shore...You know it was up to me

After 5th AUC show1. At 1st I thought Suze be renamed because she was not a public figure, a gesture of protection. But in AUC she is a composite, to serve a theme: the conflict of Dylan's art & relationships. Suze claimed independence much earlier. It's good she's renamed!

After 5th AUC show2: First glance; the title is about the unknown that arrived in NYC. But he retains his shape shifting, mysteriousness, & veiled inner/creative life. Still unknown when the credits roll despite name recognition & record sales. A truism about Dylan & all of us?

Dylan scarf reference at Carter funeral? He was a fan.

What is the priority for the next Dylan movie? I like Michael Glover Smith's answer to Laura Tenschert: Chonicles, BUT I'd love to see Suze Rotolo's story in A Freewheelin' Time, too, bobdylanbookclub.com. Intertwined: politics, art, theater, feminism, the Village, Dylan, young & old love.

Cutting room floor, Bob: please, what's wrong? Whats exactly the matter? Sylvie: I wanted a whole man, not just a half. Bob: the words to say I'm sorry I haven't found yet. @bobdylanbookclub.bsky.social
