Bob Dylan Marks 60-Year Anniversary of First Hit With Clip of 'Greatest Moment in Music Ever'
Bob Dylan's career is a timeline of iconic moments. The 84-year-old star has been a part of all parts of American music, whether in influence or in person. Being one of the most important artists of the last 70 years, so many moments have been mythologized into the music canon. However, no moment stands as iconic as the May 17th 1966 Free Trade Hall concert.
Better known as the "Judas" show, the concert served as the breaking point of a cultural powder keg that had been filling since Dylan's set at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, where he decided to "go electric" with a more rock inspired sound.
The audience he cultivated as a folk singer felt betrayed by the change in his sound, feeling he sold out and betrayed the grass roots activism he had built his career on. This all led to the Free Trade Hall performance, where a fan shouted "Judas" during the show, and this followed:
The video was posted by Dylan to commemorate 60 years of "Like a Rolling Stone," arguably the most important song Dylan has ever released. It has topped many lists as the greatest song ever, and completely changed popular music as we know it. Fans flocked to the comments to react to both the song, and the iconic performance.
"Best live performance of this song!!"
"Coldest moment in music history 🔥"
"Greatest moment in music EVER!!"
"What a masterpiece!👏👏"
It's one of the most iconic songs in all of music, accompanied by one of the most legendary moments in music history, and it will remain that way for another 60 years to come.🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬

The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays. Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you'll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives. Here are extra hints and the official NYT Mini Crossword clues and answers for Wednesday, August 6: Spoilers lie ahead, so remember to scroll slowly: NYT Mini Crossword Hints 1 Across: Joint that can be replaced 4 Across: Withering aside, in modern parlance 6 Across: Sci-fi series The _____ Limits 7 Across: Late-night coffee, perhaps 8 Across: The original protagonist of either The Evil Dead or the Pokémon anime 1 Down: Come up with a plan 2 Down: What a work of fiction or home improvement project starts with 3 Down: Spot on, in slang 4 Down: It follows 'baking' or 'cream' 5 Down: Seen on swatches NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers 1 Across: Stylish – HIP 4 Across: Something a beach umbrella provides – SHADE 6 Across: ___ Banks, North Carolina – OUTER 7 Across: Unlikely to keep you up at night, in a way – DECAF 8 Across: The eruption of Mount St. Helens released 520 million tons of it – ASH NYT Mini Down Answers 1 Down: Come out of one's shell – HATCH 2 Down: Bright ___ – IDEA 3 Down: "Fab!" – PERF 4 Down: Starry or Squirt – SODA 5 Down: Color tones – HUES It took me 1:38 to complete today's NYT Mini. Can't say I'm overly happy with that time, but I made a couple of mistakes that really slowed me down, so it's entirely on me. I can't explain why I was so confident that HIP would be 'fly.' I also got 7 Across very wrong at first, to the point where I'd be embarrassed to share what my initial guess was. Thanks to those mistakes, it took me an age to figure out HATCH and PERF, even though I got the rest of the Down answers without a hitch. I'm sure I'll get a better time tomorrow!

Portland Pickles, Disney reach settlement in ‘David vs. Goliath' trademark lawsuit
PORTLAND, Ore. () — Walt Disney Company has settled a lawsuit with a Portland team that accused the entertainment giant of trademark infringement. The Portland Pickles reached a settlement with the company on July 31, according to a notice filed with the U.S. District Court for the District Of Oregon's Portland Division last week. While court documents do not reveal the terms of the agreement, and the team hasn't yet responded to KOIN 6's request for comment, records show it will be finalized within 30 days. Portland's speed cameras have disappeared. Here's why The collegiate baseball team originally in early May.

When the Portland sports organization about the show earlier this year, leadership revealed that mascot Dillon T. Pickle had received 'not a call, not an email, not even a half-hearted fax' from the entertainment company. According to the ensuing complaint, the similar branding from both entities is a 'classic case of David vs. Goliath.' Plaintiffs also alleged the — and the online merchandise sold along with it — has caused some confusion for fans of the local team. 'Defendants have never been authorized or licensed by Plaintiff to use the Pickles Marks or anything confusingly like them,' the lawsuit reads. 'Yet they have moved forward with full knowledge that the Pickles brand already exists — and is protected. On information and belief, Disney's actions were not only intentional but brazen, leveraging their outsized market power to appropriate a brand identity with a decade of goodwill and fan devotion behind it.' Portland City Council to review Vision Zero effect The settlement comes a week after another Oregon brand, Columbia Sportswear, against Columbia University. The apparel company alleged the Ivy League institution violated their contract by selling merchandise that dons the 'Columbia' name, but neglects to feature any insignia that is specific to the New York school.
