Night of nostalgia for fans of Dylan

-

Bob Dylan fans are invited on a trip down memory lane for a tribute night at Shoreham’s Ropetackle Arts Centre on Friday (February 25) at 8pm.

The show will also be taking in the Kings Theatre, Southsea on March 10 on its tour.

A spokesman said: “Bob and The Band capture classics including Like A Rolling Stone, Blowin’ In The Wind, Knocking On Heaven’s Door and Subterrane­an Homesick Blues to perfection in this affectiona­te trawl through the best of Dylan’ s impressive back catalogue.

“With a story arc that begins with JFK’s inaugurati­on and returns full circle to his 1963 assassinat­ion, the show uses evocative visuals and fascinatin­g anecdotes to plant 1960s-era Dylan back on stage for one evening.

“Lauded by critics and fans as superb, inspiring and moving and heartbreak­ingly fabulous The Bob Dylan Story is fronted and produced by Dylan fan Bill Lennon, whose other touring credits include Keef Rickard in The Counterfei­t Stones and James Taylor in You’ve Got A Friend: The Music of James Taylor & Carole King.”

Bill said: “It’s an evening of good old-fashioned nostalgia. We really do transport our audience back to a time when Bob reigned supreme, with all his greatest hits and the stories behind them.

“And just like Dylan’s famous Mr Tambourine Man, we can’t wait to play these classic songs for the good people of Shorehamby-Sea and Southsea the way they remember hearing them first time round.”
