A Benefit for Music for Youth will bring us The Music of Bob Dylan this fall. Will Bob be there? We're hoping so. Those who are on the bill to play a song by Dylan include: Philip Glass, Rosanne Cash, Ryan Adams, Jay Farrar, Bob Mould, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Patti Smith, Phil Lesh, Cat Power, Seal, Lee Ranaldo Project, Medeski Martin & Wood and plenty of others. Including Sandra Bernhard, we hear she does an amazing cover of "Like a Rolling Stone" (not kidding).
The event is November 9th at 8pm at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall. To get tickets, which range from $40 to $125, go here. For a vip ticket, which will cost you $350 to $1000 and includes a reception with the artists, email [email protected].
Meanwhile, Dylan's latest release, Modern Times, is his first to hit #1 in thirty years. He also got an 8.3 on Pitchfork. The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live 1966, The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert got a 10.0.
