I think it means he's not being "authentic" or maybe he's being too "self indulgent." :shifty:

It means you're just going to have to deal with that fact that not everyone likes him.

Sure. But saying he "can't sing" is about the same level of artistic critique as the other two things.

Addendum: Saying "I don't like his voice" would be a less meaningless statement.

I'm fine with "I don't like Bob Dylan." "Bob Dylan can't sing" on the other hand is a different kind of proposition.

An observation: This Fat Wrecktrospective is fun listening, although it doesn't inspire me to check out too many of the bands. It does remind me that I should pick up some Mad Caddies, tho. And maybe some Tilt.

EDIT: Bobby One Note has a terrible singing voice. Although he can sing, it doesn't sound very good.

But he writes a better song than Dylan. :shifty:

Seriously, you Dylan fans get so humorless about him.

Probably because we have to take a constant stream of shit about him on this board since forever?
