There's little that can be done in this space to explain the legend of Bob Dylan that hasn't already been said. The classic albums pretty much speak for themselves. There was a feature film centered on his mythos. Even reality TV pawn shop employees who can't name a single song of his still understand his importance, and that getting Dylan to sign one of his records ranks among life's coolest moments. So we're just going to let you know that tickets for Dylan's Nov. 13 show at George Washington University's Smith Center go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster at a cost of $55. There's a presale starting Thursday at 10 a.m. That's really all you need to know.
