Scott was also an enthusiastic supporter of NY fanzine "Broken Arrow." The zinesters helped Scott with dates and details for his book. Scott repaid with family stories. Neil used them both to track down tapes for his archive.

Here's a weird, unsigned behind-the-scenes look at Rolling Thunder, taken from the April '76 issue of "Modern Screen." I don't think I've seen this before, but the details are right (Dylan using alias Phil Bender, a bus named Phydeaux, etc). Maybe a compilation of other sources?
Yes, that show was taped. Local affiliates could then decide when to air it as a syndicated show on their stations. So in some markets it might have aired the following day, in the afternoon even.

Thanks, Harry. I gave a talk on this at Tulsa 1. First thing that we would call a fanzine was a fan club newsletter issued out of Wimbledon in June ‘64. And it was legit - had the endorsement of Bob’s UK publicist.
The 2022 Newport Folk Festival starts today. I'm at home, thinking about the kids who saw the latest "Rock Folk Song Folio" and then bought tickets to see #BobDylan at Newport in 196...6! Dylan didn't actually play that year. Probably he was at home, maybe riding his motorcycle.
“Everything passes, everything changes,” but that doesn’t mean I have to like it.
RIP to #BobDylan fanzine “ISIS.”
Hearty salute to its 37 year! / 218 issue! run.
