As much as I love Dylan I haven't seen either.

My 16 year old nephew sung along to Subterranean Homesick Blues in the car the other day and didn't get a word wrong. It was pretty cool. He was pretty pleased with himself.

Wow, I would be too in his place! I've listened to that song at least a hundred times, read the lyrics, saw the video, etc. and still I'm not that on top of it to remember everything on cue. It's a genius play on words and ideas, but incredibly fast paced. So great props to your nephew for this amazing feat... not to mention for even knowing who Bob Dylan is!

Ah, my Dad had a big influence on him. He's always been huge on music. He even listens to Ry Cooder! He's got his own band now too, it's a little teenage of course, but it's still quite good, considering he writes all his own music and lyrics. If you're interested, his band is 'Could be Stars' on Spotify. I just gave him a book of poetry I had from doing LIterature at high school as he's also doing the same and is loving poetry for how it relates to spoken word and lyrics. I am quite proud of my multi talented musical nephew.

Well, Spotify is really not my thing, but now you got me so intrigued that I'm going to check out your nephew's band.
