He could just sit back and enjoy his well-earned retirement. He's been doing this for sixty years, after all. But I suppose it's fundamentally, who he is, what his life's been about, writing songs and performing them.

I wish there were more people like him in the arts and entertainment. It's a bit odd. I was wondering if freedom of speech has now become something linked to legendary status, artist talent and huge wealth? If one is a public figure? His tours have, over the last few years, grossed in excess of a thousand million dollars.
