See Bob Dylan Play ‘The Times They Are a-Changin’ for First Time in 15 Years


At a Franklin, Tennessee, stop of the Outlaw Music Festival tour, Bob Dylan played "The Times They Are a-Changin' for the first time in 15 years.

Dylan last played “The Times They Are a-Changin'” in the East Room of the White House on Feb. 9, 2010, when he appeared at an event honoring the Civil Rights Movement, sharing the billing with Joan Baez, John Mellencamp, Smokey Robinson, Natalie Cole, and Jennifer Hudson. Finishes the song, steps off the stage – I’m sitting right in the front row – comes up, shakes my hand, sort of tips his head, gives me just a little grin, and then leaves. (Bob’s present-day political views are a mystery, and we’ll place the odds extremely close to zero that the song was a commentary on the New York City election.)
