I thought that was Charles Bronson for a moment (this bone), can honestly say I would not have expected to see him photographed with Cyndi Lauper. that is still a neat picture, though

Dylan hanging out with Mick and Keef? Not sure why this would be surprising, but it is cool.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 20 March 2015 00:31 (nine years ago) link

Actually, I saw a little Pete Townshend show a few years back, and he told a story about the one - one! - time he ever spoke with Bob Dylan. So maybe it is kinda weird!

Some good photos of people hangin' with Bob:

If this was Audrey's party, the deer was probably alive. If it was Anthony's party, it was likely dead and stuffed.

At first glance, I thought that was Ashton Kutcher.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 20 March 2015 01:01 (nine years ago) link

not surprising, but
Dylan & Francoise Hardy; Dylan & Johnny Hallyday

Well, it's Alice Cooper, so naturally it had to be in the thread.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 20 March 2015 01:43 (nine years ago) link

yes, Alice Cooper arguably king of this thread

This strikes me as weird as it's not a party or backstage somewhere... Phil Lynott, Robert Plant, Eric Clapton

Where's Graham Gouldman?

Actually, I saw a little Pete Townshend show a few years back, and he told a story about the one - one! - time he ever spoke with Bob Dylan. So maybe it is kinda weird!

The anecdote Pete sometimes tells is of Bob coming up to him backstage after a 1969 Who show and saying, "Pete, I'd like to stay, but I've got another appointment."

But they've apparently met again since:

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Friday, 20 March 2015 14:01 (nine years ago) link

Pete said he asked Dylan something like "what makes someone a folk singer?" and Dylan's response was I think "a good memory."

Wouldn't expect to see Plant hanging with Ronstadt:

Not sure this makes me "happy", but Courtney Love tweeted this photo of her having dinner with Mariah Carey and Brett Ratner just now
