A few attendees of the mall-store sponsored New American Music Union Festival over the weekend got it in their head that the songs Rock Band had to offer were much more interesting than the ones being performed by Bob Dylan: “As the legend, now 67, performed ‘Like a Rolling Stone’ and other ’60s classics, a handful of rude boys wailed away on [Rock Band] 50 yards from the stage so loudly that Dylan’s voice was all but drowned out.” I’m kind of sad that Dylan didn’t respond to this flouting of concert etiquette by going over there and jumping in, actually. Could you imagine the headlines about Dylan “going plastic”? [NYDN]
