Where are you going to be on Election Night? Political types will no doubt gather at victory (and/or defeat) parties around the state. Perhaps some will silently observe the proceedings on their home television, allowing them to drop f-bombs or perform over-the-top celebratory acts as the electoral votes are projected.
But there is also an alternative.
Duluth-born and Iron Range-raised Bob Dylan will be performing an Election Night concert at the U of M’s Northrup Auditorium. The Star Tribune has the story.
I will be gathered with other Democrats in DC watching the returns and hoping for a President Obama. Have fun….

Well, as long as I’m going to school down here, I might as well see if that ol’ ranger has any songs left in him. Or maybe on the very slim chance that he’ll sing “North Country Blues”.
Yeah, I’ll be at some election function up here on the Range. But I’d go if I could. I’m very, very sure he’ll do “Girl From the North Country.”
North Country Blues hasn’t been on the set list in a while.

“North Country Blues hasn’t been on the set list in a while.”
That’s why I said it was a very slim chance, but I’m sure that anything he plays will be good. And, in my experience, it’s the songs that you don’t expect him to play that usually turn out the most impressive.
