Bob Dylan the DJ does electronica

Great to see so many people upset with Bob Dylan and his recent DJ sets. Even better to see that Bob is playing electronica! According to this article posted today in the Guardian bob played "an electronica set composed of atonal drones, hyperactive drumbeats".    http://www.theonion.com/article/rock-fans-outraged-as-bob-dylan-goes-electronica-17699 Those who apparently came to see the  "authentic Dylan", the one with the Stratocaster guitar and signature wild blues-rock band where somehow short changed? They didnt see him, mmh! My argument would be, we are talking about Bob Dylan, being courageous, how many decades has Bob been doing this?  Isnt he known for his transformation? Didnt Bob Dylan make leaps with electronic instrumentation? Isnt Bob Dylan a man of progress? I´d say, those who were upset might want to think about progress while asking the question of how many roads must a man walk down? Respect to Bob,
