Kat, the article you link to says it all. I think the audience was mostly booing things that Peter Yarrow said (such as that Bob didn't have much available time to play), not booing Bob Dylan. They mostly wanted to hear a whole lot more of Bob Dylan.

Then all the myths started getting repeated after that, and people began acting them out at future shows. Much ado about nothing!

I've got most of that show here on film on the DVD that just came out, and it's wonderful to watch and listen to.

The song "Diamonds and Rust" is a beautiful song, probably the finest piece of writing that Joan ever did.
