Gig Spam Bob Dylan Birthday Bash Again!

[Gary Blanchard]

I am happy to once more be a part of the Bob Dylan Birthday Bash at the WCUW Front Room in Worcester, MA. This will be my third time being a part of this. The first was in 2016:

I took part again last year as well:

This year it will be held on May 26; I have signed up to do It Takes a Lot to Laugh (It Takes a Train to Cry) and The Times They Are A Changing. I learned to play guitar from the book Twelve Bob Dylan Songs Playable with Three Magic Chords, so it is always nice to get to do some Dylan songs. It is also a great gathering of local musicians.

Gary Blanchard is dead but his ghost lives on and on
Never did get any Golden Globe award, never made it to Synanon
He was an outlaw, that’s for sure
More of an outlaw than you ever were
Gary Blanchard is gone but his spirit’s livin’ on and on

Maybe he had some problems, maybe some things that he couldn’t work out
But he sure was funny and he sure told the truth and he knew what he was talkin’ about
Never robbed any churches nor cut off any babies’ heads
He just took the folks in high places and he shined a light in their beds
He’s on some other shore, he didn’t wanna live anymore

Gary Blanchard is dead but he didn’t commit any crime
He just had the insight to rip off the lid before its time
I rode with him in a taxi once
Only for a mile and a half, seemed like it took a couple of months
Gary Blanchard moved on and like the ones that killed him, gone

They said that he was sick ’cause he didn’t play by the rules
He just showed the wise men of his day to be nothing more than fools
They stamped him and they labeled him like they do with pants and shirts
He fought a war on a battlefield where every victory hurts
Gary Blanchard was bad, he was the brother that you never had

That ain't much, AC/DC did an entire career with 3 chords.

A career in noise pollution.
