She said in a hostile way something that's absolutely true. Her hostility is her business--she knows the man, and she obviously has her reasons. It doesn't bother me one way or another. I like Bob, and I like Joni, and it makes no real difference to me if they don't like each other. As to the truth of what she said--hasn't Bob, for his whole career, been trying on poses, trying out voices, taking what he needed wherever he found it? Isn't that what he's all about in the end, whether you want to call phoniness or a kind of genius? Singer-songwriters are supposed to be a sensitive bunch, all about sharing their feelings and touching you with their sincerity. Well, Bob isn't sincere, and that's what I love about him. He isn't real; he's something better than that. And Joni is more complicated than that too, but this isn't a Joni forum.
No ONe mentioned the most obvious part of this story...and considering this is a website as other dylan websites devoted to him - because of his ability to deliver/phrase/put-on/be tongue-in-cheek/sarcastic/silly/what have you...till someone hears the TONE of her voice and phrasing to judge is ludicrous....think people think.
