[Chuckling]" "Urn, Stuart " "Look, shall I just check this out now with Albert, to save you hanging on?" "Then give you a call back?" "God bless you." "1,250." "You probably could stretch him to 1,500." "So I figured this." "You know, it's BBC." " Maybe for one show, but not for two." " No." "I had a feeling that Granada would come up with the best money." "They have done in the past." "Remember what he offered Peter, Paul and Mary for two shows, BBC." "This seems to be their -- their top." "But I imagine we really, uh " "If you get him back, why don't you let me take a crack at him on the phone?" " Pleasure." " Because he called me in the States, you know." " Who, Stuart or Johnnie?" " Stuart." "Stuart?" "All right." "Listen, Stuart, I've got Mr. Grossman for you." "Will you hold on a second?" "I spoke to you in New York, didn't I?" "It's the number, yeah." "And at that time I indicated... the kind of money that we were looking for for Bob... and I assumed that when Tito told me you were interested... that we were somewhere in that vicinity." "And I was personally kind of surprised at the nature of the offer." "And as much as we'd like to do a show for BBC..." "I think we can't consider it at that money... 'cause it doesn't come anywhere near the other offers that we have." "Well, the minimum that I would consider would be... the fee that you mentioned for each half hour." "No, no, no." "I wouldn't -- 1,250 for each half hour." "Well, uh " "Thank you very much." "Bye." "He said he'll put it to them, but he's almost certain it'll be 1,200 even." "But I think he's gonna come back with 2,000 for two shows." "Then we're no better off." "We're still better off with the other one with one show." "Are we, Albert?" "I don't know." " Don't know myself." " Hmm." " I mean, I don't " " Can we, without acting in bad taste " "Can we get Johnnie Hamp back on the phone... and tell him it looks like we have a better offer from " "I'll tell him." "No?" " Albert, if I may " " Yes?" "Go along with me." "I know Johnnie, and Johnnie's a good guy." "Johnnie is not about to save them money, you know." "But we only asked for 2,000." "He's certainly not going to come back with more than that." "He's certainly not gonna come back and say..." ""We'd like to give you a little more than you asked for."" "What we can do is this." "If we want to hold on, Johnnie will be back in the morning." "If he comes up with the 2,000, and if they turn around and say, "Forget it" -- if they come up with the 2,000, I'll say, "Look, Johnnie." "Albert wants to do it with you." "We're not saying no to you and doing the other one." "We're gonna tell you straight what happened." "We were ready to do yours if you came back with 2,000... but then the BBC got raving mad and came up with 2,000... so you've got to top it."" "Albert." "Um " " Albert." "Stuart." "I'll be with Albert in a few moments... and I'll put it to him... and, uh, you know, I'm sure he'll come up with a decision very quickly." "Uh " " Well, now, Stuart, let me tell you " "Yeah." "No, let me tell you something, between you and I." "Very truthfully, as you know, um, two months ago..." "Granada came on when they heard he was coming." "And you know them, they pay, you know " "Uh, well, they pay for the taxi as well, if you know what I mean." "Uh, and they've been on there hammering away like mad."

"We're on our way in about 10 minutes with Mr. Bob Dylan." "So can you have someone expect us?" "Through the stage door?" "There's not many kids there?" "Okay, right." "Thanks very much." "Bye." "Very few there, apparently, so " "[Dylan] Beautiful day, man." "I've been in offices all day, since 10:00 this morning, organizing my other tour." " [Laughing]" " The other folk singer." "Donovan." "Yeah, the other folk singer, yeah." " How's that tour doing?" " Uh, not so good. [Laughs]" "He said, "What do you think if we booked a theater in Scarborough for a Sunday concert... and put just Donovan all on his own?"" "I said, "Well, I can't see it for two hours."" "He said, "We should put one other act?"." "I said, "We should put about four other acts."" "[Laughs]" "[Dylan] God, this must be a very old theater, huh?" "[Woman] Sure." "Victoria died in 1894." "[Man] Queen Victoria built it for her " "Dude." "[Neuwirth] Whoo." "Look up there, man." "A touch of reality." "[Chuckles] Look at this place." "Look at these old boxes." "That's wild." "God."

" Are you gonna see the concert tonight?" " Yes." " Are you gonna hear it?" " Well " "Okay." "You hear it and see it." "It's gonna happen fast, and you're not gonna get it all." "And you might even hear the wrong words." "You know?" "And then afterwards " " I won't be able to talk to you afterwards." "I got nothing to say about these things I write." "I mean, I just write 'em." "I'm not gonna say anything about 'em." "I don't write 'em for any reason." "There's no great message." "If you wanna tell other people that, go ahead and tell 'em." "But I'm not gonna have to answer to it." "And they're just gonna think, what's this Time magazine telling us?" "But you couldn't care less about that either." "You don't know the people that read you." " Oh -- - 'Cause, you know, uh " "I've never been in Time magazine... and yet this hall's filled twice." "You know?" "I've never been in Time magazine." "I don't need Time magazine." "And I don't think I'm a folk singer." "You'll probably call me a folk singer, but the other people will know better." "The people that buy my records, listen to me, don't necessarily read Time magazine." "You know, the audience that subscribe to Time magazine -- the audience of the people that want to know what's happening in the world week by week... the people that work during the day and can read it " "It's small." "Right?" "And it's concise." "And there's pictures in it." "I mean, those kind -- that certain class of people." "That's a class of people that take the magazine seriously." "Sure, I could read it." "I read it on the airplanes." "But I don't take it seriously." "If I wanna find out anything, I'm not gonna read Time magazine." "I'm not gonna read Newsweek, any of these magazines." "'Cause they just got too much to lose by printing the truth." "You know that." "What kinds of truth are they leaving out?" "Anything, even on a worldwide basis." "They'd go off the stands in a day if they printed, really, the truth." " What is really the truth?" " Really the truth is just a plain picture." "[Journalist] Mm-hmm." "Of what, for example?" "Of " " Of, you know -- A plain picture of, uh -- of, uh " "Let's say, uh -- uh, you know, a tramp vomiting, man, into the sewer." "And next door to the picture, you know..." "Mr. Rockefeller or, you know..." "Mr., uh, C.W. Jones, you know, on the subway going to work." "Uh, you know, any kind of picture." "Just make some sort of collage of pictures, which they don't do." "There's no ideas in Time magazine." "There's just these facts which too are switched." "Because even the article you're doing, the way it's gonna come out... don't you see, it can't be a good article... because the guy that's writing the article is sitting at a desk in New York." "He is not even going out of his office." "He's just gonna get these 15 reporters and they're gonna send him a quota." "[Journalist] Well, that's actually not true because " "He's gonna put himself on." "He's gonna put all his readers on." "And in another week will be -- have some space in the magazine." "But that's all." "It means nothing to anybody else." "I'm not putting that down, because people have got to eat and live." "You know?" "But, uh, let's at least be honest about it." " I mean, sure " " Listen, I don't know that you " "I know more about what you do " "And you don't even have to ask me how or why or anything -- uh, just by looking -- than you'll ever know about me, ever." "I could tell you I'm not a folk singer and explain to you why... but you wouldn't really understand." "All you could do -- You could nod your head." " You could be willing to try " " No, I couldn't even be willing to try." "It would be -- it's -- There's certain things which " "Every word " " Every word has its little letter and big letter." "[Journalist] Your friend had the right word -- "pigeonholed."" "No, that's not the word at all." "Every word has its little letter and big letter, like the word "know."" "The word "know" " " K-N-O-W?" "You know the word "Know" -- capital K-N-O-W?" " Yes." " Like, each of us really knows nothing." " Yes." " Right?" "We all think we know things, but we really know nothing." "But you're saying you know more about what I do " " No, no, no, no!" " No, I'm saying " " I'm saying " "I'm saying that you're gonna die." "You're gonna go off the earth." "You're gonna be dead." "It could be 20 years, tomorrow, anytime." "So am I. We're just gonna be gone." "The world's gonna go on without us." " Right." " All right." "You do your job in the face of that, and how seriously you take yourself... you decide for yourself." "Okay?" "And I'll decide for myself." "You're not gonna make me feel unhappy by anything you print about me." "I just can't " " It couldn't, you know -- You couldn't offend me." "And I'm sure, you know, I couldn't offend you." "So, uh, uh... all I can hope for you to do is, uh, you know... all your ideas in your own head, somehow, wherever they are " "Do you care about what you sing?" "How could I answer that if you got the nerve to ask me?" " Well, then you'll have to " " You got a lot of nerve asking me a question like that." "Do you ask the Beatles that?" "I have to ask you that because you have the nerve to question whether I care " "I'm not questioning you because I don't expect any answers from you." "Did you think somebody wouldn't go see somebody if they didn't want entertainment?" " Of course not." " Who wants to go get whipped?" "And if you do want to go get whipped, aren't you being entertained?" " All right, so, fine." " Right?" "So you think anybody that comes to see me... is coming for any other reason except entertainment, really?" "They'll tell you they're coming for different reasons." "Who cares what they tell you?" "Who cares what anybody " "Well, they think they know why they're doing it." " Do you know why they're doing it?" " I know some of the things they say " "People say all kinds of things." "You have to sort of weed it out." " Can you weed it out?" " No, I don't read." "Well, see, you're not gonna learn -- I can't teach you how to weed it out." "I didn't see that I couldn't weed it out." "I said I don't read." "Yeah, well, you know, I-I-I have no idea." "First of all, I'm not even a pop singer." " You think you'll ever be one?" " I don't know." "I have no idea." "Everyone performing in front of audiences is in some sense a pop singer." "Even if it's Caruso, he's appealing to a popular " "And he's a pop singer." "I'm just as good a singer as Caruso." "Have you heard me sing?" "Have you ever heard me sing?" " I like Caruso better." " Oh, well, you see, right there now " " Right there we have a little disagreement." " [Journalist Chuckling]" "I happen to be just as good as him." "A good singer." " You have to listen closely."
