Bob Dylan: Cranky Old Bastard

I wouldn't mind seeing Bob Dylan and Harry Crews try to out-crank each other. Heck, they'd probably get along great. Dylan has always been a poor elder statesman, feeling threatened by younger talent like Bruce Springsteen and the such. As for fans downloading copies of music for free? What's the big deal, he asks Rolling Stone?

"Well, why not? It ain't worth nothing anyway. You listen to these modern records, they're atrocious, they have sound all over them," he added. "There's no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like ... static."
