<p></p> Rolling Thunder Revue, April 1976tag:mannysmusic.ning.com,2011-01-11:3071127:Topic:107982011-01-11T20:07:53.000ZSandihttps://mannysmusic.ning.com/profile/SandiBachom
<p> </p>
<p>In 1976 I was 17 years old. Two friends and I had read about Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue coming to Orlando, FL to the Orlando Sports Stadium. Orlando was a sleepy orange orchard back then. Disney had only arrived 4 years earlier in 1972. From what I understand the OSS was torn down years ago and a residential community sits on the site.</p>

<p>In 1976 I was 17 years old. Two friends and I had read about Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue coming to Orlando, FL to the Orlando Sports Stadium. Orlando was a sleepy orange orchard back then. Disney had only arrived 4 years earlier in 1972. From what I understand the OSS was torn down years ago and a residential community sits on the site.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We were a 3 kids from Savannah, GA and the thought of seeing Dylan live was a near impossibility to us. He hardly ever played in the South and he surely wasn't ever going to come to Savannah. So, we found out about the RTR and Orlando and I immediately called and ordered tickets long distance (remember that) directly to the OSS ticket office. We bought 3 and we couldn't believe it. WE WERE GOING TO SEE DYLAN, LIVE! So we were on our way to south FL.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We get there and immediately go get our tickets. It was 35 years ago so I don't remember it that well but we finally found the venue. (If you want to call it that. I had read that it had been used mostly for wrestling matches.) It was a metal warehouse with no windows! We thought this can't be the place. Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Roger McGuinn, Mick Ronson, etc.. wouldn't play this dump. It was in the middle of no-where. Well, lo and behold this warehouse actually had a ticket office. It was more like a window in the wall. I walked up and asked "am I at the wrong place or is Bob Dylan playing here tomorrow night?" </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The lady in the window asked me for my claim check for $32 (yep 32, for 3 tickets). I forked it over and thought "man, I have been screwed on this one". Oh well, we were here. We'll play it out. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The next night we show up and the (of course) grass parking area was full. OK, so far so good. We hand over our tickets wondering what we were walking into. This place was an indoor rodeo with dirt floors! We had driven 400 miles to see a friggin' rodeo!?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have to describe the inside of this place. It looked like something out of a county fair where you would keep livestock. It was a long, narrow building with sold sheet metal walls on 3 sides and the far end (I believe) was open air. This was April (thank God). I can't imagine how hot this place would be in August. Dirt floors...you've got to be kidding!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Typical food for a circus - hotdogs, popcorn, cokes. For all I knew they probably sold cotton candy.</p>
<p>We walked up to see if they sold beer. OMG, they sold 16oz draft beer for 50 cents and 20oz for $1. My friends and I were all 17 but the OSS didn't seem to care. Well, this trip suddenly was on the upswing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We walk into the arena trying to figure it all out and there it was -- a stage at the far end of the "barn". On it was a "Rolling Thunder Revue" banner. THIS WAS THE RIGHT PLACE! WE WERE GOING TO SEE DYLAN!!. Of course it had no seats on the dirt floor so we run up to get close to the stage. We got to about 30 feet from it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was a long show.All of the stars played a set. Bob Neuwirth played 1st. We hadn't heard of him but, hey we had $1 beers. Then came Roger McGuinn of the Byrds. He was great. We recognized his obvious voice. Then, Joan Baez. She was great, too. But come on,we were here to see Dylan and were running out of Budweiser dollars.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Joan finishes her set and the place goes dark. the roadies are scampering around the stage checking leads, mikes, guitars, drums. keyboards...the whole works. This escapade went on for about 15 minutes. Along the way a roadie walks up to one the guitars and checks to see if its in tune. OK, OK, lets get on with it!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>All of a sudden, the roadie starts strumming the beginning of Mr. Tambourine Man, JESUS! THIS WASN'T A ROADIE. IT WAS DYLAN! NO ANNOUNCEMENT, NO LIGHTS, JUST DYLAN BY HIMSELF SINGING MTM IN THE DARK. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Needless to say we were in nirvana being 30 feet from Bob Dylan. It was the best rock show experience of my life.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now, after the show, we three hang out to finish our beers. there was noone pushing us to leave so we hung out. We walked up to the stage and asked the 1st person we saw for anything of Dylan's. The guy turned out to be Bob Neuwirth. He BS'd with us for 15 minutes. Finally I asked if he could get us Dylan's autograph. he said Dylan was gone but he gave us his. We talked a bit more and he suddenly says, I know what I can give you guys.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He walks away for about 5 minutes. We figured he wasn't coming back but we waited it out and he returned seeing us there. He reaches in his pocket and says here and hands us 2 guitar picks and a metal pin.<em>(The pin, I was told later, was actually a back stage pass.)</em> He then says that only Dylan used that kind of pick. We thought COOL. "I wonder if he used them." Naw, Neuwirth was probably trying to get rid of us.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We walked out to the car.I pulled the pick out of my pocket to just to look at it. It said.....</p>
<p> </p>

Hi. I hear that Jimi Hendrix played Manny's picks.<br />
<br />
Did he play then in 1967 at the Monterey Pop Festival?<br />
<br />
What did the picks look like back then? Do you have any pictures? If you could please let me know, I could really use this information for an art project.

<br />
If a city is to be more than a collection of tall buildings, its unique spaces and neighborhoods must be respected and preserved. How many cities have an area comparable to Music Row?<br />
<br />
Reportedly, Rockefeller intends to raze Music Row and replace it with office building skyscrapers. Joni Mitchell said it well -- get rid of paradise, put up a parking lot.<br />
<br />
A mayor with integrity and a soul, rather than a mind like a cash register, might have sought to preserve Music Row. Why not get Manny's designated as an historic site? That could stop the greedy ones in their tracks. JStag:mannysmusic.ning.com,2009-05-13:3071127:Topic:24392009-05-13T22:46:03.000ZSandihttps://mannysmusic.ning.com/profile/SandiBachom
