You've fucking lost it man. Off the deep end, you are.

the newport incident was historic for the wrong reasons. the crowd were sheep who thought dylan's music could only be played on acoustic because they'd only heard it played acoustic. not because it was oh-so-profound for dylan to try playing an electric instead, which i'm sure countless other songwriters had done before him. in fact, yeah that probably was the biggest performance innovation he ever made, but he only conceded to the crowd's whining and went and got his acoustic for them instead. talk about sticking to your guns.
