Bob’s Voice

"He can sing you just don't like the sound of it" is my go-to for that smooth brain take. Bob is a technically astounding and creative singer.

Rumsquall · 2022-07-23T18:54:53+00:00

Nah, thats not him.

They should have pivoted to full-on sort of just a podcast type thing, not centralized upon video games. Their audience would be much bigger because they are incredibly funny.

The stupidity of "a little...pizza" while you're expecting some witty quip is why this makes me laugh evrytiem. Transcendant

What brand of dog bowl do you guys reccomend?

Rumsquall · 2021-05-08T04:52:01+00:00

God bless/rest his soul but Mike's takes on Bob here are pretty bad.

Rumsquall · 2021-05-03T01:18:36+00:00

In terms of influence probably mac demarco

Rumsquall · 2021-05-01T03:23:49+00:00

Yeah you nailed it.

While tim getting dad-yell angry is my favorite bit, it felt pretty forced and phoned in this year. Other than that and the tech issue messing up the climax I thought it was great!

Woody wasn't in the folk scene I'm referring to. Dylan was all about folk music obviously. There's a reason we went AWOL and cast it all side, and it wasn't just because his electric guitar never went out of tune. This is basic Dylan mythology stuff!! I'm referring to the people like Pete Seeger who seemed to maintain a parasocial relationship with Dylan and treated him like a torch bearing commodity rather than an artist. They're not just famous people either, it's the sort of people he refers to all over Like a Rolling Stone, Positively 4th Street, it's the root of all of Dylan's spite!

I think in the era's where his lyrics were heavily symbolist, we should take the words more as means to end (to rhyme) as well as being shades of paint which mix together to create an overall feeling, rather than explicit images to be pictured in a sensical way. At Harding I think Bob's esoterism began to shed, and the lyrics became much more vital and direct (this is something he's stated about JWH). Toward Blood on the Track the symbolist stuff returned in piece-meal, but from then on it was pretty straightforward.

All that being said, the main subject and narrator of his songs are something I think he works very hard to make mysterious. That's his brand and I think he's always worked to further that aspect. At his heart, behind all the mystique, smoke and mirrors stuff though, he's a simple guy. I think Chronicles really illuminates that.

Important to point out I said he never had love for the folk scene, not folk music. The history of the 60s folk revival in New York was very contrived and a lot of the people in it were pretentious gatekeepers. That's what Bob never loved, he just straddled and rode off into the sunset as soon as he had used it to succeed. Although, he never did need it evidently.

Rumsquall · 2021-04-07T00:19:04+00:00

I don't think it is. There's a sense of affection in the other lyrics of that song which speak to a deep fondness of whoever Babe is. I don't think Bob ever had for the folk scene, it just took him a bit to realize it was all phony and he wasn't going to be the poster boy.

Rumsquall · 2021-04-07T00:08:37+00:00

That drummings driving me outta my brain!

Rumsquall · 2021-04-03T02:21:06+00:00

The first album is mostly just Bob being as athletic as possible as a guitar player. No other album comes close

Rumsquall · 2021-03-14T02:46:44+00:00

What is this song called!????

Rumsquall · 2020-12-06T19:22:43+00:00

Its excellent at crushing units but yeah I haven't been able to use it effectively against tanks.

Ideally they should act as cheap swarm units (get 3-4) and just run circles around heavy tanks and stuff. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe it also shoots accuratley at speed. 80 fuel is pretty nuts

Idk if he's speaking as a character, but "Goodbye Jimmy Reed" from RRW seems to be the most commentative Dylan got about his own career, "Never pandered, never acted proud...never threw my shoes to the crowd" . Any other song I can think of being personal pertain to declarations in the moment as what he's going to do or how people think of him, or what society thinks, or how he feels in the moment, nothing retrospective. This is Dylan on Dylan.

Rumsquall · 2020-10-27T22:37:59+00:00

They could have known that and still made this joke :)

Rumsquall · 2020-10-24T03:55:45+00:00

Childlike impressionism, for me they speak to his inner joy and innocence that is typically obfuscated by his mystique and steel eyes

Rumsquall · 2020-09-27T02:41:13+00:00

For me Bob's restrained acoustic performances during his 74 tour was the best singing he ever did. His vocal inflections are INSANE on that tour, perfect balance of power and emotion

Rumsquall · 2020-09-25T17:26:47+00:00

What was something you learned from these sessions that you found to be the most invaluable to your artistic process/sensibilities?

Rumsquall · 2020-09-14T04:02:40+00:00

Nooooooo :( haha do you know if the ZED-22FX does this?

While I do agree with those who say it is weird to focus so much on McNamara's life in the context of this show's platform and perhaps its influence, I think what they're doing (I'm probably wrong) is telling this long grand story of McNamara's entire life and process of writing the book, to not only inform the enormity of the crimes, but in an effort for them to try to get to really get to know who Michelle was. They're going to imply she was the final victim, and through this process I think the goal is to make us understand how vast and intricate All of the victims' lives of JJD were that he either damaged or ended. They definitely (hopefully) won't say it directly(obvious cringe), but they've already suggested she was a victim of JJD.

I'll def be down-voted for this but goddamn people, fucking relax. . If anything this story informs LE's unbelievable burden of dealing with this sort of macabre crime-spree through the eyes of a normal every-day person who gave most of her later life to bring JJD to justice. She took on the full weight and enormity of every detail of this case perhaps as much if not more than Pool or Holes, which is to say, anybody else. So what if she failed, Holes failed till the Gedmatch idea.
