About 6 months ago, my father went to a Bob Dylan concert. He's been a fan since the beginning (my father will be 57 this year) and was elated that he was going to preform in our city.

Dylan never faced the audience, slurred and mumbled through the lyrics. My father, being under the influence of alcohol and disappointment of the behavior on stage, stood up and yelled "C'mon Zimmerman, you can do better than that! Get off the stage Zimmerman if you're gonna be an ass!" (Zimmerman is Bob Dylan's real last name).

This almost got him kicked out (and I mean, it was warranted); he was told that if he wanted to stay he would have to sit by security for the rest of the concert.

My father just left in disgust. He wasn't going to just let the "awe of legend" be the determining factor for him to stay.
