Up Next - Bob Dylan's Outhouse

There are fans and then there are... ah ... fans.

Ieva Lesinska: Professor Ricks, Why do you have a bathtub in your office?

Christopher Ricks: It's Bob Dylan's childhood bathtub. It's where the young Dylan made his first splash. It belongs to two former Boston University alumni.

IL: One of the things I'd really like to understand is why it is that I fail to appreciate Bob Dylan?

CR: And what does your psychoanalyst say about this problem? -- Eurozine - A lesson in Dylan appreciation - Ieva Lesinska, Christopher Ricks

Yeah.... I had a 34 year old friend who was all excited to go to a Dylan concert. We made merciless fun of him.

After he went, he quietly admitted: "It really sucked. Every song sounded the same...."

I'm 40. Bob Dylan means nothing to me or mine.
