 === Annual Bob Dylan birthday celebrations===
 Telegraph India: You are referred to as the Dylan of India. Your reaction to that?
@@ Line 31: / Line 31: @@
 Bob Dylan may not be as gung-ho about his birthday as the residents of Shillong, often referred to as the capital of rock music in India. For, in this serene hill town, Dylan’s birthday means festival time. Yes, concerts abound and Dylan songs rent the air. And one man who takes centre stage and leads the festivities is blues folk musician Lou Majaw.
 ===Early life===
 Majaw, a Khasi (a tribe in Meghalaya, India and parts of Bangladesh), has often been described as one of the biggest fans of Bob Dylan in the North-East, and is the driving force behind the annual Bob Dylan birthday celebrations.
@@ Line 46: / Line 49: @@
 He started his professional career as a performing artiste in music and he recalled his first professional performance in association with Oracle Bones at Moulin Rouge (Calcutta) in 1965, after he moved on with the Fentones, Blood and Thunder, Supersound Factory and many others.
 Lou Majaw is one of the most respected musicians from the North-East. However, his journey was not a cakewalk. An old lady from his village remembers him thus, “We used to be scared of him. Long hair and dark teeth and so tall! Also he was the first man we ever saw who had a guitar!” But today, Majaw’s influence is best described by a young girl, “We have discovered the genius of Bob Dylan thanks to Majaw.”
@@ Line 58: / Line 65: @@
 At age 66 he can still outplay any young gun, and a concert with Lou for up to four hours at a stretch is not uncommon. This is not a man who sings at his crowd – he is singing with them, he is one with them. Lou lives with his son Christopher Dylan Majaw (“Christopher for God, Dylan for music and Majaw for man” the proud father says) in Shillong. And yet he is like all those travelling blues musicians and folk singers who so inspired Bob Dylan.
