    My first rock concert. Age 14. 1968, at the local HS Auditorium. You would have thought the frikkin Beatles themselves were on stage, what with all the screaming. I was hooked on R&R from that moment on. I still go see Roger McGuinn any time he's around.

    One of my favorites of Bob Dylan's goofy songs.  And even better, is that when "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere" appeared on Dylan's Greatest Hits, Volume 2, instead of actually including the original he remade it with parody lyrics of himself ("Ghengis Khan and his brother, Don, could not keep on keeping on ..." etc.).  Thanks, Jerri.
