Roll Your Own Dylan

It never fails to blow my mind that Dylan was only 24 years old when he wrote that song and filmed that clip, and it's even more bizarre because he looks like he's about twelve.

How cool is it where you see Allen Ginsberg shuffling away at the end?

And a girl. I remember how the dainty elegance with which he drops the last card and steps over the pile weirded me out the first time I watched the vid.

I hope this doesn't get too popular. I'm working on a Powerpoint version of Subterranean Homesick Blues for the next 'I want to be Bob Dylan' contest here.

Yeah, well, I wish I were someone just a little more funky.

So why did he make a video anyways? What did they do with it? Show it in smoky village bars?

It appears in D.A. Pennebaker's Don't Look Back. I think it might have been made for that, though i can't swear that it didn't exist before hand.

When everybody loves you, that's just about as funky as you can be.

Although I thought it might be bad form to share our own here, I can point to The Stephen Colbert "On Notice" Sign Generator thread as precedent that it's probably okay.
So here, dammit.
