I just read being selected "left him speechless" and "honoured" and he will attend the ceremony "if at all possible".

Word is that Keith Richards has been nominated for a Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Re: Bob Dylan won Nobel prize in Literature
I'm not at all surprised at the fact that he won't attend.
(I liked the Rex Murphy's comments in the shared video.)

Re: Bob Dylan won Nobel prize in Literature
I'm going to his Kelowna concert this summer.
I've seen Dylan twice before; about 15 years ago (double bill with Paul Simon) and 10 years or so ago in Calgary. After the Calgary show, I was left thinking that Bob doesn't have much left as a performer (though his band was absolutely top notch) and I wouldn't bother seeing him again. But it's Bob and he's coming here and this will be the last chance we'll get to see him, so a friend and I (both Dylan fans since our teens) couldn't resist.
Between Bob's performance chops, and the songs he's been playing lately (lots of Sinatra covers) I don't have high expectations. But like I said, it's Bob.
