If you are going to write about Bob Dylan Zimmerman, you have to understand his roots in Duluth and Northern Minnesota. You have to go there and listen to people talk. You should call my sister and hear her take on his singing. It's all about Duluth.

Did you hear the duo at Napa last night? (2/2/2010) They were amazing and played acoustic versions of rollings stones, celtic, blues, jazz and originals. Never saw them before. Hope you were there
