Expecting Rain

... and we had Bob Dylan with us.
I'm sure we are not the same.
At Rio de Janeiro a girl was very mad: "I read Bob Dylan biography and it's not him!!"
At Porto Alegre everybody was glad to see the youngest guy from the stage singing an "unidentified song". It was Bob Dylan singing John Brown.

Farewell Bob! I hope you come back soon. You are very welcome.

Beautiful post...thanks for sharing it here.

I hope you'll see him again soon, Caro.

Carolina - what we have lacked in the way of live setlists for this leg of the tour, has been filled by the quality and candor of your posts. thank you!

The beautiful meeting between a little child and Bob Dylan at Porto Alegre.

That was absolutely beautiful and moving. Thank you, Carolina, for posting it!

very touching... i couldn't make it out in the translation - did it say how old the child was?

That old man most dear.... yes.

11 years old - Yes, I know the google translation is very bad. It make a confusion with her and his, she and he. But is something. My english is not good enough to translate it very well. I'm afraid to confuse you more than google.

no worries at all, i had guessed that. i just wanted to be sure. he signed an 11 year old boy's harmonica last august in Nashville, Tennessee. such a good man he is deep down. Turns out, the boy was named after him and was attending his first show.

*tears*

Thank you so much for posting this. Because Bob is eccentric and probably moreso with each passing year, I think people start to mistake that for aloofness or some other such thing, but I don't believe that for a second.

Makes my heart expand....

Bob will be back soon, .....nice post...

lovely....

when you want something, you gotta go get it... and you gotta think positive... it works

So I am not surprised that this little girl met him.... She wanted it and went for it...even had her little note for him knowing she would give it to him... good on her!

I know you don't like to go into too much detail, but did you like him, Milkcow?

I hope so, without artificial lenses with an open heart

Querida Carolina,
I think the most important thing of the last one and a half weeks was that Bobby injoyed his stay in Brasil from the arrival in Rio until leaving in Porto Alegre, that he could breathe brazilian love and tenderness, and later on when he is back in the States reflection on his tour-dates, I'm sure he'll love to remember the days in Brasil.
And you Carolina, I know you had a, if not THE most exciting weekend in your life down in Sao Paulo, thanks for your information...
muito obrigado, beijo e fica com deus

De nada!
My swimming teacher said that I'm swimming better that ever!
He asked me what happened? Bob Dylan experience I said.

About the strong emotions: It's not easy to be a woman and to like Bob Dylan at the same time. Believe me.

The shows in Brazil were great! Now we are waiting with open arms. I'm so nervous and excited! I hope Bob feels here as good as in Brazil.

That was a very nice story Thanks Carolina

Spanish is the Loving Tongue.
Have a good time!

awwww.... now that's too cute ! <3 <3

You really do have to think positive. Just posted pics on ??? thread of my Chronicles and one is with my name on this website so you know it's mine! Signature is fading, last b in Bob is gone, but indentation is still there and the memory remains untouched! The book is slightly used because I read it all the time, but I don't care; I am never giving it away or selling it and I will curse any child of mine that does! That's a cool story about the little girl! Love, Joanna XOXO

I know I erased what I wrote... I was trying to connect that you go for what you want if you really want it... and I just didn't want it to be about me. so I erased me. i'm sending you a pm to answer your question

Hey Sweet Caroline......great note farewell and what a wonderful story about the kid being all casual with the bobster. Her mom will write poetry around, You will stumble/tie your shoe...lol...somethng along the lines of, be sure to watch where your feet be walking or something philosophical .
anyway, glad you got a couple shows in....those that see with the heart and soul are those that see for sure!
