I HATE FOLK MUSIC: Do you remember, back in 1965, at the Newport Folk Festival when Bob Dylan went electric to play "Mr. Tambourine Man"? Remember how everyone in the audience booed him and declared him a traitor to the folk ethos? Do you remember in the audience hearing that one guy cheer Dylan's electric guitar?

That was me.

Ha ha, well that's understandable too. I never did like Stravinsky.

I booed the premiere of Stravinsky's Rites of Spring.
