    They elect a new one after he dies.

      When the sweet smelling smoke rises above the crowd, the new Dylan is selected

      I think it’s more like a Dalai Lama situation. Joan Baez and the ghost of Woody Guthrie secretly raise the child at Big Pink until he’s ready to be unleashed upon the world.

      He was asking about the Pope, not Dylan.

        I think they were explaining how a new Dylan is picked.

          It’s been a long time since we picked a new Dylan, people have forgotten how we do it.

          Is this the one where everyone chooses a piece of paper, and the one with the black dot gets stoned to death? Wait, no, that’s that other thing.

            No, I think a big group of musicians get together and then there’s something about releasing a large cloud of white smoke. Or is that for a new Willie Nelson?

          Fun fact: Bob Dylan is the only democratically-elected, non-hereditary monarch.

            What about the artist formerly known as co-Prince of Andorra?

          sorry for the confusion but forreal this is touching on the ceremony whereas a new Dylan is consecrated
