How Old is Bob Dylan?

I've noticed, Anya, that this is not the only post of this type which asks the same question. I'm not sure exactly how many people you know are actually Googling this question but if they are, and I'm suggesting you are one of them, then the priority of how old someone who has been in the limelight might be is a questionable obsession.

If someone is over sixty, for example, are they dull, uncreative, uninteresting and to be ignored? Or rather, are they to be seen as role models, to be pushed as far as possible so the rest of the world can simply sit back and enjoy them until they simply cannot deliver the goods any more and we sit up and pass judgement like some Roman emperor at the Coloseum?

Surely, the question you pose is rather shallow, dull, uninteresting and maybe a more profound or relevant one would be, how can you begin to create for yourself, develop a literary talent and therefore a self-confidence which portrays a personality, and to leave the simpler, more basic and academic 'revelations' to those journalists who can do no better than write about other people.

But those are just my thoughts on the matter.

I look forward to other, more crafted posts from you.

Peace.

well, title or not, you found it interesting enough to click and read. Shallow or not, thanks for your view.

I didn't watch the grammys, but I do love Bob Dylan!

I watched, he is surely going to need an ice bath and a week of recovery for those brittle bones...

He sounded older than he is... :(

I've never been a real Dylan fan, but I did enjoy his performance at the Grammy awards.

Let me phrase this the way Bill Maher would: There are those of us who get Dylan, appreciate him for who and what he is, and are grateful to be of his generation. And there are those...who are stupid and insensitive.

Dylan aside (being in a class by himself), as for favorite performer of the evening, Mick Jagger!
