Shred battle - Dylan vs. NY Guitarists

Flavorpill reminds of this weekend’s opening of the NY Guitar Festival, in which a bunch of game six-stringers like Lenny Kaye & Katrina Kiedis (Sufjan Stevens Band), Jason Isbell (Drive By Truckers), Jim Lauderdale, Toshi Reagon, Freeman & Vernon Reid, Harry Manx & Kevin Breit, The Last Town Chorus/Megan Hickey, Jesse Harris, Richard Julian & Jim Campilongo, Chocolate Genius Inc. and others attempt to search and destroy the legacy of Bob Dylan in one evening’s fatal swoop.



Looks like fun. Get there early, the Winter Garden gets packed early for free shows like this. Remember last year’s Springsteenfest?
