Saturday is Bob Dylan's 67th birthday,
and what better way to celebrate than a new exhibit that explores
his local connections.
   

   "Tangled up in Ore" opened Thursday at Ironworld in Chisholm.
The exhibit uses Dylan's own words to explain his relationship - or
lack of one - to his hometown of Hibbing.


      It also includes some Dylan-oriented memorabilia, including a
high-chair used by baby Bobby Zimmerman to a bedroom window from
his family's Hibbing home.


      There's also a replica of the Hibbing High School stage where
the normally mild-mannered Zimmerman delivered a wild, Jerry Lee
Lewis-inspired performance at a school talent show in 1957. That
performance has become a local legend, with some recalling that the
crowd went wild, others say they booed loudly, and some say the
high school principal tried to drop the curtain before the
performance ended.
