Billy Toured With Dylan
For 11 shows over three weeks in February 2003, Billy played guitar with Bob Dylan during Dylan's tour of Australia/New Zealand:
1. see Feb. 2003: http://www.trevormidgley.com/GiggingBands.html 2. see first 11 tour dates: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_...003#Tour_dates Dylan tends to keep musicians long-term. Tour to tour, there's not much turnover in his band. It would appear, therefore, that Billy was an emergency fill-in (perhaps Charlie Sexton pulled out last minute and Dylan had to scramble), or that something did not work out. I saw Dylan later in 2003 and the guitarist who replaced Billy (Freddie Koella) was absolutely incredible. Last edited by cbBen; 01-23-2024 at 12:06 PM.. |

He does keep them. My friend Donnie has been with him for probably 15 years or longer.

Quote:
Regarding why he left the tour- “One day walking along together, Bob asked ‘how do you like it out here? Do you write much on the road?” I told him that I don’t write when I’m on the road. Later on I figured out that my publisher, Barbara Orbison, did not like me to be on the road because I didn’t write when I was on the road. She later told me she pulled me out of the Bob Dylan band. I only did the Australian and New Zealand tour with Dylan. I really love the band, and we all remain friends. I have even had a couple of calls from time to time to see if I had any interest in playing again.” |

Imagine being asked if you wanted to play with Dylan and the answer was no.

Perhaps this explains why Roy Orbison recorded his song "(All I Can Do Is) Dream You" for the album Mystery Girl: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Girl |

That was really one of the final nails in the coffin for BR5-49. Bob wanted Donnie Herron(Heron?) in his band. And of course Donnie chose the greater gig.
