Speaking of Dylan Dreams
I had an intense lucid dream that I was at a concert and Dylan was playing with the Grateful Dead and he sang All along the Watchtower in this very electric version. Later that summer a friend came by and asked if I wanted to go see Dylan with the Dead in Oakland because his wife couldn't go and of course I went and It happened just like the dream.
Funny cuz probably my favorite and most often repeated Dylan line is "I'll let you be in my dream if I can be in yours"
Since then I had a very dark dream that started as an album cover called Jerusalem Burns. There were tanks diving along a road and smoke in the distance. Hope this one
doesn't happen.
