This looks like fun guys! I can't hear it too well where I am at the moment so I'll check in again at home with a pair of headphones later...

Chris - the sound is a bit low, sorry about that - I shot it with a digital camera in movie mode with the built-in mike

willem - yeah, I am a huge dylan fan - I took up the guitar so I could try to play songs like I want you. And when I saw stuart's post about being in the bay area, I remembered that he started the dylan group on this site and recorded a dylan video - so it was easy to pick songs

Vanessa - I have one more video to upload - Lay, Lady, Lay - I had mentioned to stuart that I use Lay Lady Lay to practice bar chords (the main chords are A C#m G & Bm, going from 5th fret to the 2nd, alternating between E shape & Am shape), so Stuart played the whole song and I just joined in on the main verses, not much singing by either of us

It was fun to get together in person. 1st challenge is to agree on the songs and then it's hard sometimes to stay in sync and hear the other guitar.
I Want you was a lot of fun - the lyrics are pretty difficult. I also struggle with a G->F chord change - you can see me working hard on it, sticking my tongue out or making other weird facial expressions.

For Don't think twice, it's alright I had a print out with the chords and lyrics for the 1st verse, but just the chords for the last 3 verses, so it was a challenge to get the lyrics and the chords right. Thanks for Stuart's patience as I kept screwing up. Again, I need to know my song well before I start singing

I'd love to learn that song. Well done. I liked the Lay Lady Lay as well.

Thanks for sharing guys

If you could some how work out the sound issues it would be great as I was unable to hear it really what i did hear sounded dylan esk so it would be nice to be able to hear the vocal side of things, the guitars came through no worries but drowned out the vocals unfortunately.
