Hollis: Scott?

Parker: Yes, Scott [Lunt, aka the singer of Father Hennepin].

Sally: Somebody told us that Bob [Dylan] walked into this silkscreen place [in Duluth] and bought a bunch of shirts.

Sparhawk: Bob walked into this silkscreen place that Scott works at. And he bought a bunch of T-shirts that they'd done of this CD. Chris Monroe, this local artist, had done a series of Bob Dylan shirts. Like there's one of him down at Positively Third Street Bakery, one of him down by the lighthouse. They're pretty funny. But he came in and bought a bunch.

SW What was he doing here? Was he playing a show?

Parker: No, I think he's got a place.

Sally: Shh! [Laughs.]

Parker: Yeah, he came in and apparently he looked like this homeless person; he had a hoodie on.

Sally: But everybody I've ever known that's seen or met Bob Dylan says he kind of looks like a homeless person. I'm just affirming.

Parker: He bought a bunch of stuff with himself on it. Apparently Sam Shepard and Jessica Lange are around town, too.
