00:00You're trapped all the way from Minnesota.
00:07Why's that?
00:09I wanted to catch a spark.
00:11If you're traveling in the North Country Fair
00:16I see no one wants to hear what a kid wrote last month.
00:19Well, I like your songs.
00:21Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
00:26Who wrote this?
00:29How about that Joan Baez, folks?
00:32She's pretty.
00:34Sings pretty.
00:36Maybe a little too pretty.
00:39Your songs are like an oil painting at the dentist's office.
00:42You're kind of an asshole, Bob.
00:45If you go with snowflake storm
00:51When the river's freezing some rims
00:56If anyone is going to hold your attention on a stage,
00:58you have to kind of be a freak.
01:00You can be beautiful or you can be ugly,
01:02but you can't be plain.
01:04To keep her from the howling winds
01:08When's the new album out?
01:10Soon.
01:11200 people in that room,
01:12and each one wants me to be somebody else.
01:14They should just let me be.
01:16Let you be what?
01:18Whatever it is they don't want me to be.
01:23I hear Bob is playing electric.
01:25Not on our stage, he isn't.
01:34They just want me singing, blowing in the wind,
01:36for the rest of my goddamn life.
01:39Well, this is going to piss some people off.
01:42You came here with nothing but a guitar.
01:44You never talk about your family, your past.
01:46People make up their past, Sylvie.
01:48They remember what they want.
01:49They forget the rest.
01:52I want to know which side he's on.
01:54I'm not sure they want to hear where I want to play, Johnny.
01:59I want to hear it.
02:05Turn it down!
02:06They laugh.
02:07Make some noise, B.D.
