Old, lost white dude
By Wyatt Earp | August 15, 2009
Now, if I was walking down the street in New Jersey, I would never expect to run into a “legend” of the music world. Honestly, if I saw a guy looking raggy and old, I’d just think it was some poor guy down on his luck.
If you are Bob Dylan, chances are pretty good that folks would think you’ve wandered away from the local “rest” home.
The incident began at 5 p.m. when a resident said a man was wandering around a low-income, predominantly minority neighborhood several blocks from the oceanfront looking at houses. The police officer drove up to Dylan, who was wearing a blue jacket, and asked him his name. According to Woolley, the following exchange ensued: “What is your name, sir?” the officer asked. “Bob Dylan,” Dylan said. “OK, what are you doing here?” the officer asked. “I’m on tour,” the singer replied.
(H/T: MYWAY)
HA! Did it sound like, “Heeyyyy, Hamonturrrrr”?
Somebody needs to keep grandpa at the hotel during the downtime that occurs during the day of a show.
I wonder if he felt all alone, like rolling stone?

And apparently, “A complete unknown.”

Maybe he’ll have to change his song from “Everybody must get stoned,” to “Everybody must get old”.

I can’t believe he was so bored that he had to go out and look at buildings. The cops must have wanted to laugh at him.

I can’t believe he was stopped by police officers at 5PM, for taking a walk, and then escorted back to his hotel when he couldn’t provide ID. Welcome to the Jersey shore!
