Smiling Bob Dylan Dances, Gets Into Irish Spirit at London Fest

Here’s something you don’t see so often: Bob Dylan shuffling a dance and cracking a smile.

Many fans wondered what he was doing on the lineup of London’s Feis Festival, celebrating mainly Irish music, held in the suburban Finsbury Park. Fortunately, Dylan had left his notoriously grouchy self at his nearby London bolt-hole. The crowd was soon dancing around in the sludgy mud and their rubber boots and everyone dropped the “Robert O’Zimmerman” jibes.
