Opinions are like *ssholes, right? We are all entitled to feel however we want about the man and his music, but as a member of a younger generation, I'm just sick to death of having to hear about how SIGNIFICANT and IMPORTANT Dylan, the Beatles, Woodstock etc. were. Did anyone read David Brooks' column yesterday? My God! I'm a musician myself, and I don't need some weiner from the E Street band telling me I don't know the history of popular music any more than I need to see yet another film about how Mr. Zimmerman was actually Jesus Folkie Christ.
One thing I appreciate about my parents (who are boomers) is that they actually follow and enjoy all kinds of contemporary music.
Also, I have to agree with the earlier poster who mentioned the apparently unmentionable (and highly embarrassing) "Christian" phase.
