On Dylan
You either love him or hate him. I love Bobby, personally.
Lookit: Bob put out Masters of War in 1963. Two years before Gulf of Tonkin. Pissed off the folkies at Newport when he went electric. Subjugated his Jewishness when he picked up the Jesus mantle in the '70's. Made the misguided attempt at championing Hurricane Carter. Bob Dylan kicks ass, though. I've seen him over the years, and he puts on a great show, every time. Bob rocks.
Yep, dylan's the man!

My mom tells me that my once-hippie Dad insisted that when I was a baby, I'd calm down and go to sleep so long as he had some Dylan on.
It still works for me.

Posted by: Queenie at January 30, 2005 1:06 PMWho cares what kind of show he puts on when he sounds like a human sized nose? Jesus H. Christ sodomizing me with a shovel, please never let me hear that hideous voice again!
