Stuck Inside Of Brooklyn With The Remix Blues Again

Last week a call went out over Craigslist...

Seeking Bob Dylan Fans for his new music video
We are seeking 2 types of talent for this video…

- Men and women in their 20s-40s who are fans of Bob Dylan. Prefer people who embody the style of the 1960s, 70s or 80s (i.e. hippies, disco dancers, punks), but we are open to anyone who is a fan of Dylan and wants to be in his music video.

- Bob Dylan look-a-likes at any stage of his life between 5’7” – 5’9” in height. If you feel like you have his look, style or would fit into these decades because of the clothes you have tucked away or a groovy car, we want to hear from you.

If you are available for the shoot on Tuesday, August 14, please email a photo and contact information to BobDylanVideo@gmail.com.

A tad misleading -- more like the Bob Dylan re-version's new video -- but hey, Ronson's take on "Most Likely You Go Your Way (And I'll Go Mine)" is the first and only remix ever to get use of the original Zimmerman masters (and Bob's outright blessing), so okay, Dylan's new vid. Did the power of Craigslist compel you? It did get a good number of folks out to BK for the Dylan/Ronson vid shoot -- lots of Dylan lookalikes, but no actual Dylan. Or Ronson. Instead, people that looked like this...



All photos by the Simple Mission (via Radar), who was on hand for the day of Dylanesque debauchery, which included the Dap-Kings, a Wyclef cameo (returning the favor), and lots of '70s costumery. Head over to SM for more pics from the vid shoot (hippies in Williamsburg!), and we'll get ya a peek when it's ready.

If I looked like Bob Dylan you'd be hard pressed to get me to ever leave the house.

"If I looked like Bob Dylan you'd be hard pressed to get me to ever leave the house."

Considering the guy's slept with Edie Sedgwick, Joan Baez, Sara Lowndes, Francoise Hardy, Mary Travers, Sophia Loren, etc. etc. etc, I think I'd take my chances.
