Oops, Bob Did It Again: Dylan Inexplicably Posts 2016 Video of MGK In-Store Performance on Instagram


Bob Dylan has posted another confounding Instagram video, this one of Machine Gun Kelly's 2016 Florida CD shop in-store performance; check it out.

If you’ve seen A Complete Unknown, or gone to see Bob Dylan in concert over the past few decades, or checked out the the Nobel Prize winner’s social media feeds recently then you know that the rock and roll bard’s factory setting is inscrutable. Earlier this year, the 83-year-old folk rock legend joined TikTok just days before what was slated to be a ban of the app, posting a kind of career retrospective clip, followed by a half dozen other archival videos. And if you scroll through the rest of his Instagram feed, over the past two months, mixed in with promos for his ongoing Rough and Rowdy Ways world tour, you’ll see an archival video of Les Paul introducing late Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen at a Les Paul tribute show in 1988, a random Ricky Nelson performance clip, a snippet of director Fritz Lang’s 1952 noir romance Clash By Night starring Barbara Stanwyck and Marilyn Monroe and a live performance video of beloved guitarist Django Reinhardt.
