Dylan kicked off his latest North American tour in Seattle on Monday, and with that another season of the Dylan Pool began.
Since 2001, fans have been competing in a contest based on set lists from Bob Dylan concerts. Think “fantasy sports for music fanatics.” Here's how it works: Players make picks as to which songs Dylan will play most often on the upcoming tour. Each time a selected song is played, points are awarded to anyone who picked that tune. More points are awarded for songs that rarely make it into live set lists, fewer for old standbys such as “All Along the Watchtower.” Players compete alone or in teams. Every time Dylan goes on tour, players make their picks, and the competition starts up again.
