Bob Dylan, 84, Turns Heads During Recent Concert Duet: 'Always Creating Musical Tension'
The star has made a career out of "confounding expectations," as he famously said in his MusiCares acceptance speech. For 60 years, the singer-songwriter has been constantly reinventing and changing himself to throw people off. He's never going to do the thing you expect. This has been true in every aspect of his career, whether that's his look, his persona, or the way he performs his songs.
A recent performance of Dylan's has caused some conversation, specifically around his aging voice and the way he performs in his current state. A clip from his Outlaw Festival performance of "All Along the Watchtower" with Billy Strings seems to have stirred some opinions.
Fans left their thoughts on the performance, as well as the text overlay from the video in the comments.
"If you don't get Dylan, you're deficient in some way."
"Dylan is an acquired taste."
"Dylan creating musical tension as always. 🔥✌️"
It appears that Dylan has done what he's always done: Create discourse, make people think, and always march to the beat of his own drum.🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬

Ralph Fiennes Leads a Choir Through Wartime Struggles in Trailer For THE CHORAL — GeekTyrant
Sony Pictures Classics has released a wonderful trailer for The Choral , a World War I-set drama starring Ralph Fiennes as a stern but passionate choir leader trying to hold a community together through music. Set in 1916 Yorkshire, the story follows Dr. Henry Guthrie, a man recently returned from Germany, who takes charge of a local choral society after most of its men are drafted into the army. With teenage boys stepping in as replacements and conscription looming over them, the choir becomes a rare source of unity and hope. 'The best response to the chaos that is laying waste to their lives is to make music together.' Directed by Nicholas Hytner ( The History Boys , The Lady in the Van ) and written by acclaimed playwright Alan Bennett, The Choral blends personal resilience with national tragedy. Fiennes' character, described as 'driven' and 'uncompromising,' must confront his own secrets as the town around him changes. The film explores how a small act like singing can become a lifeline when everything else falls apart. 'The Choral's ambitious committee, determined to press on, decides to recruit local young males to swell their ranks... despite their suspicions he has something to hide, their best bet seems to be Dr. Henry Guthrie.' The film looks to offer an uplifting portrait of community and artistic resistance during one of history's darkest chapters. I actually am looking forward to watching this! It looks great! The Choral will make its world premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival in September, followed by a UK theatrical release on November 7. It arrives in US theaters this Christmas on December 25.

This Is How Destiny 2's ‘Dead Weeks' Will Work Now, It Seems
In the wake of Destiny 2's profitable Solstice event, so profitable I'm not sure Bungie entirely thought it through, it seemed like going back to the normal grind was going to be a slog. And while that still may be true, at reset, Bungie announced something that was at the very least eyebrow-raising. At Tuesday reset, Bungie revealed that this week, special weapon damage and ammo drops have been increased in Portal activities. Cool, great, we've seen things like 25% surges before and such for various specials, so whatever. Not whatever, not whatever at all. As the in-game pop-up says, the damage increase here for all special weapons is double. They will do twice as much damage, and if you build into ammo even a little bit, with that extra boost my guess is you'll practically be using these as a primary. That was sort of viable for some weapons before, but it may be true for most of them now. This shines a specific spotlight on a weapon like Mint Retrograde, the brand-new rocket pulse rifle that is already like a heavy weapon that uses special ammo. It's hard to take off at all and now it's flat-out twice as good. Also in the same breath you can cite Choir of One, the hugely powerful special auto rifle that even with recent ammo reserve nerfs, is still more or less a primary. Now, double damage and more ammo. Ridiculous. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Ironically, it's not all that common of a problem that the activities players are running into are 'too hard.' There are weird ebbs and flows with deltas where 260 is easy, then 280 is hard, then 300 is easy again. Now, in Grandmaster, I'm not finding anything's that difficult at all, so this is just icing. The exception here would be Mythic Kepler missions which have enemies that are so overly obnoxiously stuffed with health that this double damage may make things actually feel vaguely normal. The main Portal issue here remains rewards versus time, where it's not worth running nearly anything but Solo Ops the majority of the time for max rewards. And now that Solstice is gone, getting lots of quality loot has been cut by probably 90% instantly, given how rewarding that event was. So, double damage specials will be fun, but the main issues with The Portal are still in place. This does give us a glimpse of what it seems Destiny 2 has in store for future 'dead' weeks, in this case a spell after a big event ends and another starts. And it also shows they're willing to go much further than we've seen in the past, and I really cannot remember a damage surge to this degree that wasn't an actual bug. So, what else do they got? Obviously, you could run the same modifier for primary or heavy weapons. Double drops seems like an extremely easy one which they have done before plenty of times, but it's even more relevant for the Portal now. I'd love one that gave us 80% shorter ability cooldowns or something like that. But the point is, they appear to be willing to finally take some very big swings when it comes to mixing things up, even if there isn't all that much content to mix up in the first place.
