Thread Name: The Man Who Yelled 'Judas!' to Bob Dylan
Subject: RE: The Man Who Yelled 'Judas!' to Bob
I had always thought of the Newport Folk Festival where Bob appeared with members of The Butterfield Blues Band and was booed and where Pete Seeger got so upset with him as the true turning point. The "Judas" concert was one of many to follow, but not the true turning point in Bob's career nor in the history of Rock & Roll. How can one heckler among hundreds, yelling one word, be such a big deal.
