2006 Events: Positively Bloom St/ Positively Unplugged/ Bloom St Revisited
Posters for SSDylan events designed and produced by RIC GIBBS.

On May 31 2006, The King's Arms rocked to the rafters as a stream of Bob Dylan tributes hit the scene. A great night, enjoyed by all: and by popular demand two more Salford Salues Dylan events were put on during the course of the year that marked the 40th anniversray of that now famous Bob Dylan FreeTrade Hall concert.
We decided to raise money for the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital Research Equipment Fund. and £1,350 was raised at these three events.
And where better to host this event than the award-winning King's Arms, a mecca for real ale drinkers and the base for Studio Salford, in Bloom Street, at the forefront of Salford's blossoming cultural scene.
