Bob Dylan Look-Alikes, Hippies Turn Out for Mark Ronson Video Shoot

Yesterday, the video for Mark Ronson’s remix of Bob Dylan’s “Most Likely You’ll Go Your Way (And I’ll Go Mine)” was filmed at Williamsburg, Brooklyn’s Art and Historical Center. Casting agents had placed an ad on Craigslist last week asking for willing extras, and those who showed up weren’t disappointed: The elaborate shoot involved a few Bob Dylan look-alikes, a crashed motorcycle, a hoard of camped out hippies, the Dap-Kings, a Seventies-disco club (and according to some reports, breakdancers and a gospel choir). The clip is being directed by Rupert Jones, who’s helmed videos for the Streets and Gomez in the past, written storylines for an Indian soap opera and made a few short films, including last year’s The Sickie. Ronson wasn’t able to attend the Brooklyn part of the shoot (his segments are being filmed later this week in London), but Wyclef Jean was expected last night on the Brooklyn set to shoot his cameo.

Who’s the Bob look-a-like? I can’t figure it out. Must be the black dude!

Yeah, there’s really shitty band playing outside my apartment window and I can’t get any fuckin’ sleep!

The Bob look-a-like seems to be the drummer (to my eyes).
Sorry that you had to bear this noise. It’s part of NYC’s annoyance factor.

God bless

Hey dumbasses – first of all, the shoot wasn’t taking place at 5:10AM so get your ears cleaned out. Second of all, that’s the featured band, The Dap Kings, none of whom are the Bob doubles. I love smart people!

Hey “Genuius” get a fuckin’ sense of humor! These are what are known as “jokes.” Boy, some of you wouldn’t know if something was funny if it crawled up your fuckin’ kneecap! If you love smart people, you must really hate yourself, Genius!

Yeah, I know. It’s spelled “Genius,” okay?
