Bob Dylan is the quintessential wonder boy........ news.com.au:80/common/story_page/0,4057,1809180%255E421,00.html 17mar01 LEGENDARY singer and songwriter Bob Dylan flew into Perth early yesterday for the start of his Australian tour. The poet with the gravelly voice whose songs became anthems of the civil rights movement flew in from Tokyo. Dylan, named by Time magazine as one of the most important people of the 20th century, is to play at the Perth Entertainment Centre tomorrow night supported by Australian singer/songwriter Paul Kelly. Dylan, famous for hits including Mr Tambourine Man and Like a Rolling Stone, then plays Adelaide on March 20, Melbourne March 21, Tamworth March 23, Newcastle March 24, Sydney March 25, Cairns March 28, Brisbane March 30 and Ballina March 31. Critics believe there is an Oscar blowin' in the wind for Dylan, who celebrates his 60th birthday in May. He is expected to take time out from his hectic schedule to perform the song, Things Have Changed, for the Academy Awards ceremony live via satellite from Sydney. The song, his first Oscar nomination, is up for best original song and is featured in the film Wonder Boys, which starred Michael Douglas and Robert Downey Jr. Other nominees are Sting and David Hartley for My Funny Friend and Me, Randy Newman for A Fool in Love, and music by Icelandic songstress Bjork I've Seen it All. The song has helped put Dylan back in the spotlight again and kicked off a world tour. Director Curtin Hanson, a fan of Dylan's since his youth, believes the song captures the film's main themes of "renewal, sense of purpose and human connections". "In some ways, Bob Dylan is the quintessential wonder boy," Hanson said recently. "He has dealt with public expectations, fear and keeping himself creatively vital." Dylan had originally wanted to perform at Byron Bay on the north coast. But residents living near the proposed concert site complained about traffic, noise and pollution problems so the venue was switched to Ballina. Thousands of fans are expected to turn up at the Centennial Park show. Organisers are using a special French sound system where the sound levels are the same at the back of the venue as at the stage to avoid upsetting local residents.
