I don't understand why you would think that. When I finally saw Dylan for the first time in 1999, my wife, who is anything but a Dylan fan but bought the tickets for my birthday, exclaimed, "Wow! He's great!" And he was. Having lots of fun onstage, responding to the crowd's enthusiasm, playing and singing with total commitment. Last year's "Love and Theft" is an amazing piece of work, and his tours these days are triumphs. So whaddaya mean? Dylan's voice? stage presence? choice of songs? musicianship? looks? Enquiring minds want to know. Gil
