CEG & HearFirst Presents: Bob Dylan 85th Birthday Bash The Bitter End May 24, 2026 7:30pm Doors 8pm Show Celebrating 65 Years of The Bitter End! The Many Sides Of Bob Dylan is a career spanning tribute performed by Near Dead Experience (an NYC based Grateful Dead cover project) and Philosophers (the original project of songwriter Phil Radiotes). Delve deep into Dylan’s catalog with the band as they blend folky and jammy elements together to bring a fresh sound to these important songs. We celebrate the poet laureate of rock 'n' roll, the voice of the promise of the 60's counterculture. The guy who bedded folk with rock, who donned makeup in the 70's and disappeared into a haze of substance abuse, who emerged to find Jesus, who was written off as a has-been in 80's, and who suddenly shifted gears releasing some of the strongest music of his career beginning in the late 90's. Come celebrate the many sides of Bob Dylan with us.
