NEWS: Sarah and I are now offering a new group of just three themed Discussion Weekend Breaks at our house in Southwest France this coming September, for those whose interests include Bob Dylan as well as the blues and Blind Willie McTell. The weekends run from Friday afternoon till Sunday morning, and include terrific food, good local wines, en suite accommodation and the evening discussions.
There are specific main discussion topics fixed for each weekend, and the first one is going to focus on Dylan's extraordinary use of the blues and the Bible.
Here are the September dates available, and the main themes to be explored:
FRIDAY 10 to SUNDAY 12 - DYLAN, THE BLUES & THE BIBLE
FRIDAY 17 to SUNDAY 19 - DYLAN & THE ROMANTIC POETS
FRIDAY 24 to SUNDAY 26 - DYLAN, PLAGIARISM & BOOTLEGS
Called Slowly Into Autumn (a phrase from Dylan's song 'Idiot Wind' on his classic Blood On The Tracks album), these weekends should be taking place in beautiful weather over here. We live in deep countryside about 45 miles from the Pyrenees and the Spanish border.
Full details, including testimonials from those who've been, are here.
