I think there's a typo there - you obviously meant No. 6 to be 2000 but your finger hit the 5 key by mistake. Otherwise spot on!

Thanks – though there's no typo – what with Scorsese's No Direction Home, and accompanying Bootleg Series Vol. 7, Chronicles Vol. 1, Live at the Gaslight CD released through Starbucks, the Dylan Scrapbook (and was there an exhibition too?) and yet another Best of, 2005 gave him a very high profile. There were some great concerts in 2000 (such as Portsmouth) but in 2005 I think his general popularity and exposure was rising higher.
