Most overrated bands

Gwar!

Yes, artists should just stand there and do nothing. That is the sure sign of an real artist. And Dylan never even wore makeup, costumes or weird hairdos. I was always fond of the rock star “photo album” that showed Dylan as a hobo roasting wieners over the fire out in the woods somewhere.

You wrote,
“The "song" he performed was terrible, with a pedestrian chord progression, no melody, and clich’ed lyrics. There were at least ten other people on stage, including a bunch of background singers. Pure showbiz bs.”

Are you referring to Beck or Dylan there? Help me out.😛 I hate it when artists try to be entertaining. 

The most influential post war blues guitarist, T-Bone Walker, danced.  The most influential R&B performer ever, James Brown, danced.  And even Mick Jagger got moves like Jagger.  Micheal Jackson, Prince, Beyonce, Elvis, etc., I guess none of them are artists?

Sheesh, tough crowd. When I say Beck was dancing around the stage, I don’t mean just moving. Did you see him last night? It was vapid, in every way. IMO. Feel free to watch the clip and form your own opinion. If you like the song, his singing, the band and gratuitous choir, his showbiz outfit and stage moves, I won't fault you.
