When Bob Dylan hits the road this summer, he won't be playing any dates in New York City proper, which means if you want to see the iconic folk hero, you'll have to go to Jones Beach or New Jersey. And the latter option just got way more intriguing—someone amazing named Andreas is offering to set you up with his FLY BOARD to use during the concert, which is being performed at a venue on the Hudson River. Here is the Craigslisting (here's a screenshot):
"My name is Andreas and I am renting out my fly board for the duration of the Bob Dylan show at Pier A in Hoboken. I will take 1 person via jet ski from Jersey City over to the show along with the apparatus. If you've never fly boarded before I will give a free 1 hour lesson prior to the show. It is a lot of fun and a unique experience. The fly board I have can hover at approx 28' feet above the water if used properly. It will be the coolest way to watch Bob play and everyone will see you and think you're the coolest guy in the world for watching in such a unique way."
On the one hand, it costs $400, on the other hand:
