Beloved Malibu entertainer Bob Dylan has just announced a show at the Warfield in San Francisco for August 25. Doors will open at 5:30 and the show is scheduled for 8 pm.

Nothing really unusual about this, except that the show is CASH-ONLY and there will be no advance sales of tickets.

It's unclear what made Bob join bad-neighborhood bodegas, “colorful” Italian restaurants, street vendors and others in the “Cash-only” lifestyle. Maybe it's a nod to the mega-recession and the calamitous loss of credit (and credit cards) that afflicts millions. Maybe he likes to get a big ole bag o'cash at the end of the night, like his beloved '30s minstrels (at $60 the ticket, he's gonna need a couple of suitcases).

Or maybe Bob's been listening to these guys:
