   To be clear folks, I have no issue with political lyrics, but instead with soap box ranting in-between songs with no off-stage activism.

     @jonobacon Oh, I totally agree with you there. I really respect !Bruce for giving millions to food kitchens in many states.

     @jonobacon You gotta back off-stage what you sing about, everything else makes you a fraud.

     @jonobacon Either that, or you're just a cynical, excentric fucker who doesn't care about anybody. Like Dylan. :)
