Has a new album called Barn.

I thought he recorded the album at his farm near Kincardine, I was disappointed it was made in Colorado. In the early 70's he invited Graham Nash to hear Harvest before it's release. He was the only member of the Woodstock Quartet no to take part in the recording.

Well. He seems really excited about his stuff.
Kind of like listening to Randy Bachman being interviewed. Also really excited about his stuff.
So that makes two of them.

Neil WAS with Crosby, Stills & Nash at Woodstock, 1969, (the band's second gig), but he's not in the movie because he didn't want to be filmed.

Neil Young doesn't drink or smoke, he's addicted to cafe. He sent birthday greetings to Howard Stern while making a macchiato.

Brad Pitt made a commercial for De Longhi...I don't know, I can't see him drinking a latte in real life.

Neil Young last played Massey Hall in 2014, he says he won't tour again unless the pandemic passes. Can't blame him for that, he's 76 now.

Other artists who performed at Woodstock but who refused to be in the movie included The Band, The Grateful Dead, Mountain and Creedence Clearwater Revival.

It was Jimi Hendrix who got Sha Na Na included, they were a big hit with the crowd.

There's a bootleg DVD of that show, filmed from the second row of the balcony. I finished downloading an Xvid/ .avi compressed video of the 2 disks while writing this post.

I promised to post a link where you folks can see the May, 2011 Neil Young concert from Massey Hall. I hope to be able to do that soon. I have the show on DVD/ .VOB file type on a computer with Windows XP operating system. I use a program named auto gordion knot to convert .VOB to Xvid. For some reason, that computer keeps shutting down after not enough time to compress .VOB to .Xvid. There's nothing wrong with the computer, the problem is with the screen saver/ power management settings; even though you computer is plugged in to an AC outlet, for some reason it keeps running on battery power. As soon as I figure out the correct settings, I'll be able to do the conversion in about 2.5 hours.

Stephen Stills was part of The Trio, he thought they were a great folk band but he wanted a beefier sound. So he wooed his Buffalo Springfield mate like a hot date and they became The Quartet in the spring of 1969. Graham Nash was dating Joni Mitchell at the time, she wrote Woodstock.

I got my information all wrong, I believed Neil wrote Ohio in the shitter.

Neil's longevity is based on never discriminating, he appealed to everyone.

I attended the Ragged Glory Tour.

Darryl Hannah recorded the Barn sessions including Neil's time outs to tinkle. As Hedley Lamarr would say, "kinky".

Darryl is a better woman than I ever expected, she knows how to make Neil's life easy...she no Rose McGowan.

Genesis should not have gone out on tour, Phil Collins has lost his timbre. Neil is six years older, has all the coffee he drinks preserved his voice?
