Every time I see Bob interact with his fans it touches my heart. He certainly made Grizzly feel special when he gave him attention. Bob knows what high esteem many people have for him. I saw another video with no sound in which a timid older woman approaches Bob for a graph. She is afraid to look him in the eye the timidly says "Thankyou". Bob Dylan is a special human being with a deep love of people that's for sure. As was said at the end of this video---WE LOVE YA BOB!!!
I like how the kid mentions Judas Priest, and Bob doesn't tell them how Judas Priest got there name from his song, Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest.
@@Angel-cd5qq How so. The guy couldn't even press a button on a camera. If I was in his place, a certified once in a lifetime event when the planets align and you cross paths with Dylan in a good mood, I'd sure want that picture too.
When I was living in Washington DC I was standing on the street one day in front of a book store and reading a map of the downtown area. This dude walks out of the store and says ' it doesn't matter which way you go in this town ' . and sits on the sidewalk behind me with his back against the building. I just smiled and nodded but as I glanced back I had to do the double take. It was Dylan , by himself. He opened and started reading a book called A Stillness at Appomattox by Bruce Catton . I told him I was planning to visit Antietam and he said ' you'll enjoy it, its just as it was in September 1863' . We had a nice conversation til a girl pulled up in a big yellow Bonneville sedan and Bob said. ' Here's my ride , nice talkin' to you ' and got in .
@@ChristopherSykesDocumentaries I don't even know if he was aware that I knew who he was. I was happy to talk to someone with like interests and I think he was too. He obviously knew his American Civil War history and it's always a pleasure to speak with someone about that subject . I was very familiar with the author of the book he'd bought so the conversation was natural. It was only after he'd gone that I thought ' WOW , that was Bob Dylan. I didn't even tell anyone for months because I figured people would not believe me , and I would not have blamed them if they didn't
This is some of my favorite Bob Dylan video footage outside of his musical performances. He is just relaxed and hanging out with everyday, normal folks, signing autographs and taking pictures. I like the beginning where he is talking to young kids about the heavy metal bands they are fans of.
Love it when the ol' grizzly shouts out "love ya bob----keep them toones comin"........... brilliant !! Good old bob casting a bit of sunshine onto this dark old world
Deakin He probably gets asked the same tired questions so much and so many people revere him as a deity and to him he is just a dude that wrote some shit because he could and I don’t even think he associates the success of those songs with himself. Interesting dude
That is how he prefer it.. Any camera or a journalist or whatever that interfere with him puts him out of his element. But here he just let it roll and ignores it. Casual Bob is the best Bob. If you meet him, never be a journalist, or ask him too much shit. Bob is best if you level with him the way he levels with you. Just stick to ordinary behaviour and leave out any starstruck BS.
Bob Dylan is such a sweet man in this brief film interacting with the kids and the public. And, why not as he said earlier somehting like, "life is short and it's easier to be nice." Very cool ...
God Bless u Bobby...this is a beautiful video...says it all...talent and a heart of gold...no one is perfect..we all fuck up...but overall...its about ones intention...and bobs is honorable...live long and be well
This was during a period when he was unusually friendly with fans. Signed my Memphis Peabody diner menu in 1986.

I love this. I always wanted to meet Bob. And one day I did. and for awhile it was just him and me alone. got kind of quiet. nice guy. he meets people all of the time in normal situations. when he is being pursued he doesn't feel comfortable. this was a good time. no one was saying anything stupid or asking him personal stuff. nice people.
Over the years the press, when they don't have anything to say about Dylan, will just slag on him. Cheap shots ya' know. It's refreshing to get a good long amount of time with him just hanging out and his being engaging with the kids. This film will live on forever for those people, most especially the kids. I hope Bob's doing well these days.
Ha-ha, that awkward, unnatural "I feel like I know ya and I'm nervous, so Imma hug ya" hug-thing from that big ol bear was so sweet, we see it creating a caricatured little moment for the female companion to follow. Everyone's not there. An awkward, idol moment.
He looks like he is tryin to force their heads into his lap....which....is very cool to me...cuz.....ya know....Ive been in love with him since i was 10....
as a fellow writer this guy is my hero and the one I'd like to meet, I met Johnny Cash and if I could Bob wow, he look caring in just about everything Ive seen personal like this
Well there it is, the human side of Dylan! The legend side is a little different.He has had it all, houses, lands, wives, children, fame and fortune. All with tribulation......And we all love him.....
Bob is not the dick that everyone makes him out to be, the reason he's not that personable is due to people who stalk him 24/7 and say they want to fuck him or marry him. I've listened to music from each decade and every time I hear it, it reminds me that he is a cool gentleman. I want to give a portrait I made of him it looks really good, I thought he would appreciate it as he is an artist.
Saw Bob play Neil Youngs Bridge School Concert with G.E. Smith not too long after this video. Love his version of Pretty Boy Floyd which he played that night and have it on C.D. on a Woody Guthrie compilation which he and other artists did Woody's songs.
Holy fuck you exactly right. That is weird as fucken hell and I didn't notice it. I remember thinking wow Bob is a lefty? Maybe that's why is so cool. But then I forgot about it and never even payed attention to what hand he plays the guitar with.
Crazy to think Bob Dylan is 80 and Stephen Pearcy of Ratt is 65. Hell even James Hetfield is 57. God damn bro my rock idols are getting old 😭😭 we need new ones not Corey Taylor!!
Bob Dylan uses both his right and left side of his brain to produce as Joesph Campbell put it in the 1988 'Power of Myth' program with Bill Moyers, "to produce humanity". Bob Dylan also uses his right hand to sketch his interviewer in the previous parts and in this part 4 he ambidextrously signed an autograph left handed. I wonder if he was then in the Billy Parker character he was playing in that movie Hearts of Fire (1987)
Bob Dylan and Hamilton local, former convict, WWF jobber and Mall Santa Claus Ted Grizzly......as someone who grew up outside Hamilton this is a strange but excellent video.
Sometimes people use both hands to write and whatever,My Mom could use both hands she was left handed,but could change to the right with other tasks too.there is a specific name for that, i just looked it up and it`s called Ambitextrous, hope i even spelled that correctly! Bob Dylan will go down in History,I love his songs,they were perfect for the sixties they also mean something for the times we are in today!
I never imagined him to be so warm to fans...He always seemed to be above it all. To me , Dylan was always together with Kubrick in that sense. Geniuses in their own fields, almost god-like figures. Apparently Kubrick was a very warm person...probably when it suited him.
@ :55 the girl says "smile for the cameras" in the tone of Steely Dan's Peg... great tune . Wonder what Dylan thought about Steely .. rip Walter Becker
...Or he's actually right handed when he sketches and when he signs autographs. See the video of him signing on Pawn Stars--he signs right. The "signature" here doesn't match his autograph.
Jesus, and there I was sitting at home probably doing nothing about 10 miles from there. Dylan and Tom Petty were on the Rolling Stone magazine cover at this time. If the kids didn't know who he was they would have certainly recognized him from that. I was 14 so I was in that group of discovery. I thought the big guy might be wrestler Grizzly Smith but I'm not sure.
You can see why Dylan wants to stay away from the public. He's attempting to be friendly here and taking pictures with people, and some asshole tells him to turn sideways in order to show his big nose. Dylan knew what he was implying but ignored it like a pro.
He is reportedly very pleasant and loyal to the people he regarded as friends/family, but tend to be hostile to journalists (due to their propensity to lie) and standoffish to fans/regular folks (due to lennon's murder and harrison's stabbing incident). He's a fickle man though, so sometimes he lets his guard down.
@@sophie.hm01 I have no Idea, unfortunately. I saw it on TV many years ago. I don't remember much about it. Only that it was a lot better than I expected. I hope you get to watch it sooner or later!
Notice, Dylan writes with both hands (X Cause when he was drawing the picture of that guy he was drawing with his right, now he's signing auto's with his left. Makes him all the more cool.
well they asked for autographs in the beginning of it but it got delayed because of photographs.... also, it's incredibly awkward when everyone around you is in awe of you and acts as such.
"Those people can come on over here. Sure can! I mean, if you care to."
Awh, he sounded really sweet when he said that.

This is the real Bob Dylan. So glad to have this talented man making music all these years.
Love how he completely stops smiling once that guy tells him to turn his head to show his profile for the picture lol
I long ago came to the conclusion that Bob is the coolest person ever created.

He actually says "God loves ya" when they hug.
Bob's reaction after the dude said, "squeezed it like a pimple," at 1:33 was hilarious
he seems so much diffrent when he's not being interviewed.

definitely less confrontational and alot more loose and funny
He signed an autograph for me & my friend after a show in Worcester, Massachusetts in 2002...my most prized possession
The big hug from modest Grizzly gets me. Bob obviously meant a lot to him.
"Can I get your autograph?"
"Maybe...."
LEGEND
Loved that. He's always sarcastic and playing around.. Cute but with a dangerous edge.
He seems like a cool dude as well as being an awesome musician.

What a fantastic clip, this is the thing Bob give's the impression of just being one of the gang he is so unassuming regardless of his fame!
I wonder if any of these people in the above video clip have seen themselves.
Seems like a genuinely nice dude, saw him live a few weeks back and he was incredible
Dylan is the man.. always 👍🏻💯🎸 one of my favourite musicians and people. Cheers

Damn, with the glasses on he looks 25 again. And his reaction when the guy says to “squeeze it like a pimple” made me lose my mind.
Amazing, Mr D. drawing with right hand writing autographs with left hand. An ambidextrous singer song writing artist.

Dylan is trying too impress the kids:) 'how bout Ratt? How bout Ratt? Sooooo cute! It's usually other people trying to impress him.......Love4dylan
And during the hug, Grizzly says "God loves ya"!
You like Ozzy?
Yeah, can I have your autograph?
Maybe?
Priceless...
Loved these vids. Never seen ‘em before. Nice one.
Thanks fantastic dylan keeps it real brilliant show for Friday night thanks again
Legend has it the kid is still trying to get Bob's autograph
Man, Those Girls are so LUCKY!! That must have been the BEST HUG EVER!!!
He looks like he is tryin to force their heads into his lap....which....is very cool to me...cuz.....ya know....Ive been in love with him since i was 10....
I saw those 3,4 bands in 7th/8th grade. I was those kids. 1984/85. Super sweet.
I love this...Dylan hanging out in a 711 parking lot in Hamilton "Steeltown" Canada.....wish i would run into him in my neighborhood 711 parking lot!
Bob Dylan could make you immortal by putting you in one of his song. Like literally he has that power to immortalize people or even other things
Ahhhhh.....I love his sexy Dylan voice. The way he talks is intoxicating, more Dylan pretty please:)
The way he says "it's autograph time" makes it sound like a debt he has to pay for the time he had interacting with these folks.
They took photos, then payback,
It's autograph time.
"Those people can come over here" Probably the only time he's ever said that.
"Sure can"!
"this movie will probably be better than the other movie " He got that right!
That's why he's the voice of his generation
Epitome of cool. Love Dylan's expression when the guy says, "squeeze it like a pimple". lol
This small clip is more entertaining than the whole Hearts of Fire movie......
It must have been really cool when Bob could mingle with his fans without being mobbed.
as a fellow writer this guy is my hero and the one I'd like to meet, I met Johnny Cash and if I could Bob wow, he look caring in just about everything Ive seen personal like this
Oh man! Hamilton is so close to home.
Bob's a beautiful cat.

"You like Ratt?" lol. No one in popular music, short of the lads from Liverpool, had as great a sense of humor as Zimmy...
Saw Bob play Neil Youngs Bridge School Concert with G.E. Smith not too long after this
video. Love his version of Pretty Boy Floyd which he played that night and have it on C.D.
on a Woody Guthrie compilation which he and other artists did Woody's songs.
I noticed the left handed thing too... as he always played guitar like a right hand player I was surprised to see that.
Its really strange that Bob drew that picture with his right hand, but then switched to his left to write his signature. Really Strange.
Yea I just noticed that to. It kind of blew my mind.
Happens alot with right handed people who play a lot of piano or keyboard.
Holy fuck you exactly right. That is weird as fucken hell and I didn't notice it. I remember thinking wow Bob is a lefty? Maybe that's why is so cool. But then I forgot about it and never even payed attention to what hand he plays the guitar with.
That’s the hand he used to sell his soul (with his signature).
Ambidextrous

the 80s ware a odd time to get into dylan like i did with my best friend at the time back in 86 when i was 19
yeah, the nadir of his career, really. He got so much better after this
Jokerman is one of my favorites from him, circa 1983, from his Infidels album. It was his spiritual era unlike the others where it was late 60s-70s

Bob signs with his left hand ... but in part one to three, he's drawing with his right hand. Curious ...
I just can't imagine seeing Dylan in the 80s. Guys with mullets and 80s fashion and girls with puffy hair. He's a 60s - 70s kind of guy to me.
He was hip to Ratt.
That's Hamilton for you. It's a steel town.
Bob Dylan signs autograph with his left hand [2:43] but he does art work with his right hand. He must be ambidextrous.
He's left handed when he signs autographs... but he's right handed in the trailer when doing his art sketch of the interviewer.
Oh
Only because that's the way he learned to do those things.
...Or he's actually right handed when he sketches and when he signs autographs. See the video of him signing on Pawn Stars--he signs right. The "signature" here doesn't match his autograph.
there is nobody more lovable - he is very kind and resilient. God bless Bob

He didn't. He said "Ratt" as in the 80's hair metal band.
Brilliant . Never seen this before . Funny man . Makes you wish you were a Wilbury

He definitely said "ratt",they were a big deal at the time.
Darren H he was younger . Bob hates interviews. I think thats pretty obvious lol
