Bob Dylan concert

I got out to see Dylan at his concert in Murray, KY on April 27.

Now, I knew that he was not going to be singing "The times they are a changin' ".  After all, like Joan Baez said, "The sixties are over so set him free."

 The first song lasted for about an hour.  At least the same beat went on for that long.  I'm not sure about the words which he sort of spit out so that I only understood about 5-7% of them.  I assumed that this was his current genre and there clearly was an audience for it.

They played for an hour and a half and then, mercifully, quit.

But it was Bob Dylan.

George Jones, Sept 12, 1931 - April 26, 2013

"He stopped loving her today." - his most famous song.

I have listened to and liked the music of George Jones for over half a century.
Most of that time it was good and simple country music.

 A sample line:
"Oh the ways of the world and wants of a woman,
If I figured them all out, would take many yeeaaars."

My opinion of him went up dramatically a few years ago when he parted company with all of those wallow in blaming other people for their troubles.  His response to his drinking problem, which almost killed him on more than one occasion, was one of acceptance of responsibility.

and he sang it:

Choices  listen to it here

"I've had choices, since the day that I was born.
There were voices, that told me right from wrong.
If I had listened, no I wouldn't be here today.
Living and dying with the choices I've made."

I always thought that law was meant to be interpreted in a lenient manner,
and that's what I try to do.
Sometimes I lean to one side of it,
sometimes I lean to the other.
