Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Bob Dylan's artwork

Bob turns 80 this month. Still on the road, doing shows (not sure about this past year, but he will be back). 


He has a show of his paintings coming up.  Maybe they are not great, but they are accomplished.

Yes, he's a competent painter. Would I like to have one of those paintings on my wall, regardless of price and who painted them? Yup.

Pictures of America, I'd call them. I recall seeing at some time an online collection of his paintings. IIRC, these 2 seem better than what I'd previously seen.

The Bob Dylan Center is now open in my metro area of Tulsa. 100,000+ items of interest, including recordings and filmed performances never heard or seen before. I look forward to seeing it. I think it will be be quite unique in terms of pop memorabilia.

I like the two paintings shown in the link, too. He's no Tony Bennet, in voice or on canvas, but not bad.
