Bob Dylan Xmas 2013
Posted in blog post on December 17th, 2013 by Merrill Markoehttps://getdarker.com/editorial/articles/qp20ni6b8l For an increasing number of people, The Holiday Season isn’t really officially under way until we all spend a moment of quiet contemplation with Bob Dylan’s Christmas decorations. I have been doing this annually since 2009, making this my fifth year as curator of this semi-sacred event. Sometimes it seems to me that the rest of the weeks of the year are merely antipasto plates and hors d’oevres, leading up to this final special entree.

My guess is that they’re too difficult to get out of that hedge without wire cutters. Of course, they only are turned on during the weeks before the holidays and it is one of the lesser known holiday miracles, almost like a modern day story of Chanukah, that they continue to work year after year without maintenance. They should have burned out by now, yet they remain lit; an electronic tribute to his long career. And this year, as we look at them once again, we see the now familiar classic annual strategy ; A simple string of uneven lights, with a familiar double loop toward the lower right. As time goes on, and the color wears off the bulbs, it begins to look as tho they are trying to spell something.

go to site It almost looks like an M. At first I thought it might be the beginning of the word Merry. Or perhaps an homage to me and the scholarly work I do here. But then I cracked the code and realized the lights present a graph upon which we see a broad annual assessment of his year.

All I can say about this one is that it is a work in progress; much more elaborate this year than ever before. So KUDOS!

go site A Christmas miracle has occurred. A SECOND string of lights has been added to the display. I don’t know why the last minute upgrade. Maybe I am making everyone punchy. Whatever the reason: Merry Christmas, everyone. Merry Christmas one and all.

https://www.mbtn.net/?p=1m7892izxn I tried to make the Must Be Santa video a part of our family holiday tradition. Let’s just say Dylan had a better reception at Newport Jazz than I got with my suggestion.
All the best of the season to you!
At last, now I can unwrap my Trader Joe’s Stollen and officially declare it’s Christmastime. Thank you for the colorful photos! I see “Dylan’s Noose” is still evident (to remind us that Bob doesn’t pussyfoot around with the meaningfulness of this holiest of holidays), yet the Winter Wonderland tableau virtually bursts with a Tempest of Yuletide cheer! I feel that Mr. Dylan has really outdone himself this year; it’s going to be the best Christmas ever!
I must agree that 2013 peaked with Marc Maron.
A special thanks to my friend Judy Clay for linking me to this…my new favorite Christmas song…and here’s a little odd Bob back at you, Merrill (keep up the sacred work) http://thenobbyworks.blogspot.com/2013/05/standing-in-doorway.html
Looking back at your previous posts, and seeing how you comment about the lights being strung higher every year, now I guess it’s pretty funny to know that they are there year-round and they are higher because the hedge is growing! Merry Christmas Merrill, and Bob! May the Christmas hedge continue to grow and glow and bring merriment to all in the neighborhood and to all of us who look to your blog for our Christmas spirit at this holiday time.
Actually, what I figured out is that the hedges were growing higher , as hedges will….and the gardeners were also trimming them. So of course the lights change position.
Best party ever. wish I were there.
I was having a crappy xmas until i heard this. now the mood ring has gone from green to purple….YAY
