Hah, no, he's just notorious for being an asshole. Regularly berates his crowds, clearly he beefs with other musicians... there's a line between crotchety and unacceptable, and he's known for constantly strolling past it. Funny, given how heartfelt and delicate so many of his songs are.

I do believe though that distinctions can be made between artist and art. I don't think the art is particularly diminished due to the shortcomings of the artist. Good songs are good songs.
