THE TWELVE TRIBES BOOKLETS
These strange booklets were handled
at some Dylan concerts, in the USA and Europe;
the publisher is a new religious movement, -some would call it a sect- called
The Twelve
Tribes.
Somebody there must be a Dylan fan, as over the years, the group has followed a number of Dylan tours, travelling in what they call their 'Peacemaker' bus. The object of the exercise is to recruit Dylan concert goers and convert them to their way of thinking. The group say that they are attracted to Dylan's messages, especially those in his old songs. They have produced several Dylan papers over the years.
