THE ISLE OF WIGHT PRESS CONFERENCE
Dylan: Great, great.

Press: Do you feel that cameras are like guns?

Dylan: I don't know.

Press: Do you feel this change that has come over you and your music is due to domestic effects? Are you chiefly a family man now?

Dylan: I would think so.

Press: There is a very large crowd expected here for your performance. Any comments on that?

Dylan: I just hope it's a good show.

Press: Do you have a personal message for the kids today?

Dylan: Take it easy and do your job well.

Press: What exactly then is your position on politics and music?

Dylan: My job is to play music. I think I've answered enough questions.
