Re: new Dylan

Yes, it's nothing special. It was on the fly job by Bob, these songs could have done with a live outing before being recorded. Its pleasant stuff all the same, certainly way better than the Neil Young album. Looking forward to the shows next week.

Re: Redgrave mourns daughter

The tabloids were/are all set to go with the Jade Goody death and now instead they're going into meltdown with this terrible, terrible story. Your heart goes out the families, plenty of people around town here know Liam Neeson and genuinely cant get their heads around this story. Just awful.
