Can anyone understand that I somehow just dont´t like Bob Dylan? I always have to switch to some other source of music if I hear him on RP...
Dunno, maybe he is ingenious. But I just can´t stand listening to him. The lyrics may be great or even outstanding, but I just can´t stand it, even if I would like to... I kinda get aggressive when I hear his voice and tone. Somebody help me! ;)
I really like RP, it´s the only radiostation on the net so far which I don´t have to mute or switch after several hours (or even minutes) of listening cause it´s wrecking my nerves.
But Bob Dylan and maybe Peter Gabriel, too, really do.
All the other stuff is really great and well picked, just my opinion...

Dylan's album Street Legal was one of the first albums I owned. I got it for my 15th birthday, in the year of its release (1978). The opening track: Changing of the Guards.
How disappointing. Who the fuck, Mr. Dylan, do you think you were singing about in Masters Of War anyway ? Maybe you need to reread your lyrics to Neighborhood Bully again, sellout !
In honor of Bob Dylan's 70th birthday, and to celebrate his upcoming concert in Israel, writers and musicians choose the Dylan song that means the most to them. A (concise) tribute.
This is quite funny. Someone doing a Bob dylan impression put up that awful song 'Friday By Rebecca Black' that is becoming an internet hit and the video is just an old Columbia 7" with 'Friday - Bob Dylan' on it. Already has over 2 million hits alone, people are actually commenting saying 'back in 68, my dad used to play this song all the time! etc. Blatant lies basically, the comments are as funny as the song itself.
For die-hard Dylan fans. Interesting history of bygone days when America had SPIRIT & people were ALIVE & you can feel it just by reading the essay. August 16, 2010

Well you gotta give them extra credit for not playing that up at all. Nowhere on their website or in any bio info that I found. You'd think there might be a *tiny* mention let slip thru. That would jack up ticket sales. The audience would suck but hey. I'm thinking like the Wallflowers. We all knew Dylan's kid was the frontman before we heard the song... even tho they didn't really play it up, everyone knew.
Either way, the Dough Rollers got my "go see 'em" before I knew any of this so anybody out there who wants to see a cool set of music should look them up.
Yup, they've got my endorsement as well. Granted, I'm a sucker for that sort of music, anyhoo, but they really do have talent and played with feeling. The Byrne kid isn't virtuoso, but he's got a very firm grasp of old blues style, and he plays a mean slide. Malcom Ford's vocals were, as you mentioned, kind of an affectation, but he's got pipes.
I also wanted to mention that Mellencamp started his set with the whole "We're gonna teach you how to count" bit again last night. The drummer came in on 4, but I think you have your answer as to why he did what he did in Billings.
...and the lead guitarist is Jack Byrne, son of Gabriel Byrne and Ellen Barkin.

I knew I could count on you!
