I have no idea what you are talking about. That's OK. It happens to me all the time.
Oh hobbit! When I heard the news on this HONOR, I was so very comforted to finally hear something nice on the news here.
I'll take SIR Bob Dylan over anybody right now.
The hurricane caused it? *giggles*

It's a 1965 thang. Pete Seeger wanted to cut the power cord with an axe. Some have never forgotten. I'm pissed 'cause he didn't hire me to play dulcimer on HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED. The scoundrel!

After all the Grammys, the Oscar, and the Pulitzer, who does he have to blow to get a Tony and an Emmy? And he's probably not up for a Man Booker. No Hugos or Nebulas, either. Oy. What an underachiever.
ObTopic: Trying blowing the King of Sweden. Couldn't hurt.

Folk can be electric like rap does not need sampling. Dylan's lyrics are every bit as good as poetry. Hurricane was legally found to have been wrongfully convicted and the charges dismissed, end of story. If Rod can be a real Sir, Bob can be an honorary one.

It has been an exceedingly long time, since Sir Dylan caused the Newport festival to boil over with anger.
Sparks were flying over my young girl head.
The "folk singer supporters," were very upset.
Pete Seeger even commented that he wanted to cut Dylan’s cables with an axe. Speaking on his disillusionment, Dylan has since said, “I expected something negative from the crowd, but hearing Pete was so mad hurt me worst of all.”
The hostility was palpable from “Maggie’s Farm,” the set’s opening song, continued building through “Like a Rolling Stone” and finally reached the boiling point during “It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry,” causing Dylan and his band to abandon the stage. After an uncomfortable interlude, Dylan was lured back, handed an acoustic guitar and, with the crowd now urging him on, performed “Mr. Tambourine Man” and, in what proved to be his kiss-off to Newport, “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue.”
