Richard Kearney is a librarian at William Paterson University. Has he won the honor of being my Facebook Friend of the Day for bein a Met fan? No, but that helps. He has won it for being a Bob Dylan fan and tagging me on Facebook. He wrote:
"Interesting excerpt from a new book about the Chelsea Hotel. I'm betting Bruce Slutsky and Jack Axcelson will dig it too." The book he is talking about is:
Tippins, Sherill. Inside the Dream Palace: The Life and Times of New York's Legendary Chelsea Hotel. , 2013. Print.
Bob Dylan wrote at least some of the songs on Blonde on Blonde at that hotel. I took at look at a description of that book and figured out that it is likely that only small portion of the book would be about Dylan. Anyway, I decided not to buy this book. I got thinking that I hadn't book a Bob Dylan book in several months. I found this book on Amazon.com:
Muir, Andrew. One More Night: Bob Dylan's Never Ending Tour. S.l.: Createspace, 2013.
So, I bought an electronic copy for my Kindle.
I was looking at his Facebook photos and found this. Could he be playing a Bob Dylan song. Will he be performing at the VALE annual meeting in January?
I did encounter Richard at a Dylan concert at the United Palace Theater in upper Manhattan in November 2008. Richard and I attended a Dylan concert at William Paterson University in 1997, but I didn't see him there. That night was historic for the Slutsky family since it was Lee's first Dylan concert. He was only 9 years old at the time.
For being a fan of Bob Dylan and the Mets, Richard has earned the honor of being my Facebook Friend of the Day.
