Here’s a nice quote from Obama from the Daily Mirror site:
President Obama said: “Here’s what I love about Dylan – he was exactly as you’d expect he would be.
“He wouldn’t come to the rehearsal. He didn’t want to take a picture with me; usually all the talent is dying to take a picture with me and Michelle before the show, but he didn’t show up to that.
“He played The Times They Are a-Changin’. A beautiful rendition. The guy is so steeped in this stuff he can come up with a new arrangement and the song sounds completely different.
“Finishes the song, steps off the stage … comes up, shakes my hand, sort of tips his head, gives me just a little grin and then leaves. That was our only interaction with him. And I thought, That’s how you want Bob Dylan, right?
“You don’t want him to be cheesin’ and grinnin’ with you. You want him to be a little sceptical about the enterprise.”
