[edit] Appearances

Main Page 6 — When "Email" is rolled over, Strong Bad is seen singing Dylan's song "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" before falling through the clouds.
Email personal favorites — "Forever Young" in Zebbadee's Easter egg email is a reference to the 1973 Bob Dylan song that became a hit for Rod Stewart in 1988.
Email long pants — While singing the intro song, Strong Bad flings away cue cards in the manner of a promotional video for "Subterranean Homesick Blues".
Weclome Back — The Freewheelin' Eh! Steve album cover is a reference to Bob Dylan's early album, The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. In addition, the track names "Eh! Steve's Dream" and "Talkin' Trying to Catch a Worm Blues" reference songs from the album.
