I can't really see the point of this thread. Some musicians have become "iconic" for a reason. But not one of them would claim to be able to maintain the same drive / forward thinkingness / vocal or musical agility decades after their rise to fame. Not to mention that every artist can have a bad night. Dylan;s name was mentioned early in the thread. Ive seen him in sparkling form one night, but totally non connected on another. I'd still pay money to see him again and thank him for his contributions to the music I love.
