Which means his opinion has more weight than yours on this subject. It's obvious you haven't read the book, because if you did, you'd know that he wasn't speaking for himself, but for the band. If you'd read the book before spouting off, you'd also know the reason why the Stones CAME TO DISLIKE the Beatles. <br /><br />Stop trolling. Learn how to critically think.

Is that right? Were they formed around the same time, and if so how does that relate to the start of Dylan (which I believe was around '63) and The Who? "<br /><br />Sorta. The Beatles predated The Stones, Kinks, Who, etc. Basically they started the tidal wave. The Beatles had their roots going back to 1957 and started becoming known in 1961. The Stones started a bit later, but didn't hit their stride until the late 60s/early 70s when The Beatles were basically done. <br /><br />Dylan started in the late 50s, but didn't really go anywhere until 1960, and at that point he did strictly folk acoustic music. He "went electric" in the mid 60s. The Beatles were great admirers of Dylan. "I've always been under the assumption that TRS created Ultamont to combat the fact they weren't invited to Woodstock. Is that true? Also, why weren't the Beatles invited? Different genre? Slightly different generation? Too mainstream?"<br /><br />Never heard that before, and I kinda doubt it. I believe The Beatles were invited to Woodstock, but they hadn't toured for years, and were barely functioning if not disbanded at that point. I'm sure they laughed off whatever invite they got. I hardly think it was because they were "too mainstream," though. Woodstock was not planned as a counter-culture event - it became that later. There were lots of "mainstream" artists that performed there; they're just not talked about much.<br /><br />P.S.

Isn't that just as discriminitory?"<br /><br />This is not a form of discrimination. It is a matter of aesthetics and taste. Jake isn't told that he can no longer broadcast or be a part of the Ticket because of his dislike of the Stones. If that were the case, then yes, it would be a form of discrimination.
