I think Conor certainly has the potential to be a legend (and i think he will be) but i think some time still needs to pass before we can say that about him. As far as comparing him to Dylan, Lennon, etc, I'd say he could be a legend in his own right, but not exactly like them or anyone else. That said, in my opinion, I don't think he could ever pass Dylan in terms of anything. I think he could be right at his footheels, but the man has is just too much; don't think anyone will pass him.
I was am disapointed that western Canada is usually forgotten in his tours. His music is more full and deep than anything I have heard in a long time.
I'm going to have to disagree and say Conor is a legend. He's definitely not pop like Dylan, Marley or Lennon, but he's a legend in his own rights, and lyrically, any of the three aforementioned couldn't compare with him. I'm sure i'll hear something about what i just said, but if people stopped comparing what Rolling Stones considers legends to real legends like Conor, then there would be some validity in their statements.
Those you just named are so idolized in your mind that regardless if anyone actually has as much or more talent than them you would be too bias to reconsider. Its like Michael Jordan always being the greatest bball player. It is written in stone. Regardless if anyone is actually is better than him. You are blind. I don't even listen to indie. But Conor is my fav artist right before 2pac. He is slowly but surely a legend. At least he will be considered so down the line. In my eyes now.
Beautiful vid!!...thanks so much for posting!!! i loved seeing him at such a small intimate venue...he WAS great....and so cute talking about his 'uncle By'....
i love how boesel's just chillin in the back.

Yeah, as much as I love Conor, I gotta agree with Wonderloo on the whole legend part.
He's great, love his stuff, it's wonderful, brilliant...but legend?
No, not even close.
Dylan, Marley, Lennon...you get the picture, those are legends.
But there's no need to be arguing on one of his videos here...just listen to the tunes and enjoy.
