Jim Maclean:
I let Bob Dylan in for nothing when he first arrived at the King and Queen, in 1962. He was virtually unknown (to me and most of the audience) but he had a guitar with him. Should I have charged him? He did sing though.

I was in the King and Queen last weekend, and the impression I got from the framed copy of the press cuttings about that was that he had a paid gig. You're saying he didn't?

Either way you blew an opportunity to change history for the better by telling him to bugger off and where the local dole office was.
