They Booed Bob Dylan for 15 Minutes Straight — Johnny Cash's Response Silenced Them All

July 25th, 1965. Newport Folk Festival. Bob Dylan walked on stage with an electric guitar and 17,000 folk purists wanted him gone. The boos were deafening. Pete Seeger tried to cut the power cables with an axe. But backstage, one man in black stood alone, clapping, refusing to let the crowd destroy a 24-year-old kid who dared to be different. This is the untold story of the night Johnny Cash made a promise to Bob Dylan in a hotel room — and kept it when the whole world turned against him.
