don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin

"Suddenly at the start of The Times They Are A-Changin' there's a girl standing on stage. Blond, dressed in black, wearing a hat like it could have been a souvenir of the Rolling Thunder Revue. She wants to sing with Dylan. The bodyguard wants to take her away, but Dylan says it's OK. They sing the first verse together. She sings great! Then Dylan steps back to play some guitar, probably expected her to leave, but she stays on stage. Dylan shows her his guitar as if he wants to say: 'Maybe you wanna take this over as well?' Then the bodyguard again comes to take her away, but Dylan again says it's OK. They sing the whole song together (and it sounds very good!) although Liz Souissi from Bern, Switzerland, is shaking all over, nervous as she is. All the time there are big cheers and lots of applause from the crowd. When the song is over, she starts to walk off stage, but then returns, giving Bob a big hug and kiss. This was front-page news in the local newspaper: 'A Kiss for Swiss Liz'. Her comments: 'This is what I always dreamed of. I almost didn't dare, but still I took a chance on it. Of course I expected to be taken away immediately. To me this is the most beautiful thing I ever experienced.' And it was beautiful for many people in the crowd. Bob even smiled when all this happened. "

Bob is a real gentleman. Met him in cleveland, ohio on July 17, 1991. Was very nice to me.

[@wattsiswhat]

I was told by some the staff of Jones Beach Theater that "he bites." No one is allowed to go near him.

[@janetbeebe6578]

Who says, Bob isn't kind and gracious. What a memory, to say you got to sing with Bob Dylan.

Damn, this made me cry. I’m a 71-year-old fart in the midst of the covid-19 crisis, witnessing the horror show of American politics and remembering when the leaders of my Lutheran church when I was a teenager recommended burning the records of Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger. My parents said they wanted to burn my copies of those records, and I told them, you just try that and see what happens. That was the end of that discussion. I left the church when I left home and never looked back. Well, I guess I’m looking back on that time now. Think how much more awful life would have been without Dylan in it.

Thank you for the story. 100% agree! You're not an old fart, you were older back then when your parents tried to burn your records. Youre younger than that now.

[@chrisingram9681]

so happy it made you cry, it made me cry too and crave something more simple than these complex times we live in now. Regarding being an old fart, Bo would just tell you "Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now"

[@kenton6098]

Feels good to see Bob respond in such a positive way to a spontaneous situation, and the audience certainly appreciated it.

[@Oh_I_Will]

“Spontaneous”….her entrance was pre-arranged…Bob, more than likely, didn’t remember when she was going to come out…

[@jillschoenfeldwhite5534]

When Bob smiles and engages personally with the musician he is doing a duet with, it makes me and all his fans smile also. Thank you so much for posting this priceless gem.

[@Voodoochil111111]

It's all about inspiration with him. He performs better when he's inspired, and by the time the third verse hits, you can hear it. After the security guy comes out to get her a second time and Dylan grabs her arm to keep her there, his voice sounds even stronger and passionate. Love it.

[@michaelmueller8772]

Absolutely spot on. Bob thrives on the unexpected, and almost always rises to the challenge. He lives to perform.

[@wattsiswhat]

One of the many Bob shows I saw at the Beacon was one of the most incredible I saw him do. At the end of the show, a woman throws her bra on stage. Bob Sees it, picks it up and shouts with no mic "I'm keeping this." It was hilarious.

[@johnwilson4967]

This is truly great stuff. I like the way the security guy tries to pull her away but Bob drags her back. Nice touch from a well-known grumpy bugger. And good for the song, which is for everyone.

You should give this footage another title, it deserves far more views than what it got in four years.

KZbin will remove the clip if Bob Dylan is in the title Sony is crazy about musical performances and copyright issues, hence the title does not mention Bob

[@marygoff3102]

Jinal Verma If you are the one responsible for the Dylan video of the woman walking on & surprising him on stage ..thank you so much! Bob's misunderstood by many .. and may be many things, but he's always been genuine & has never fed us any of the fake bullshit. In short he's the real deal .. more appropriate would be emphasis on "the" real deal..none other like him. Much appreciated!

[@debbyledbetter4434]

I have had the feeling for a long time that insomuch as people are often much the same everywhere, that still, Bob likes Europe & touring there more... just a feeling or what comes out in the shows he does there. I've not seen him anywhere but the US, but seen many shows done in UK or elsewhere...just an observation or a vibe I pick up. Always love to see Bob & Band wherever I see them!
