if ya dig it, ya dig it! :D :D


How cool is Jack's intro?!? my understanding is that Jack and Bob had been hangin' out, partying for a couple days leading up to the awards ceremony...

How F'n cool is Bob's "speech"?! ..note the nervous laughter from the audience during the looong pause mid-speech....keeps em in suspense then drops the hammer!! i laughed so hard when i first heard this...
God Bless You Bob

***i transcribed Bob's portion as it's kinda hard to make out(I've been listening to him for years and have aquired an 'ear' for him haha) : "Yeah. Well. My daddy, he didn't leave me too much you know, he was a very simple man....He didn't leave me a lot, but what he told me was this. He did say, Son" ....long long pause...."He said so many things you know...You know it is possible to become so defiled in this world that your own mother and father will abandon you. And if that happens, God will always believe in your own ability to mend your own ways. Thank you." :p

He's certainly one of a kind.....

Nicholson's usually entertaining and what an eloquent introduction he gives Dylan here.

Glad you enjoyed it Sushi

(Hey if you haven't checked out Dylan's newer stuff it's quite good especially Love and Theft from 2001)
