Crosby Stills & Nash

Just want to say that if anyone is into classic rock I STRONGLY suggest that you go and see CSN. 2 1/2 hours of just fantastic rock n roll. Blew the roof off the Kings theatre in Brooklyn tonight with a great mix of classics and some very good new material. Just an excellent show and I have been going to see them for over forty years some I am not easily impressed but tonight all I can say is WOW!!!!!!!! They truly were great

 

No Young?

Bill

 

No Young...... Crosby and Young are feuding and according to Young he will never play with Crosby again......

 

Yea, that's a shame! Some of the best music ever made was the four of them in harmony.

 

They should have gotten Jimmy Fallon to do Young.

 

Good one! Lol

 

That is true . But even without Young CSN are a group that has unparalleled talent which was on full display last night. First time I saw them was way back in ' 74 ( concert before they announced that Nixon resigned) and probably seen them in various combinations close to 100 times so my opinion may be biased but I can truly state that in my opinion Stills has never been better on guitar ( voice has noticeably diminished though) but Nash and Crosbys voices are still strong, sound great and the 3 of them put on a great show with a lot of interaction with the audience. It is not a just get the paycheck musicianship. Well worth the admission price

 

Amazing

Amazing show!
There all master Musicians.


Saw C.S.N &Y, circa 2002 Austin Tx. Simply Brilliant!

About the no Y, Neil Young stole the show!

His "Harvest Moon", was Beautiful in person.

 

Film

No doubt Young brings a certain something to the table. Saw them in 1999 @MSG ( That was my daughters first concert at the ripe old age of 8. The following month was at a Britney Spears show now that's a culture shock!) again in 2000 the CSNY 2 k tour. He and Stills really push each other to reach plateaus they normally wouldn't reach when playing apart. That's what really makes it special . It becomes evident that when the 4 are together Crosby & Nash take a back seat and are content to watch what happens( well maybe not content accept it maybe a better phrase)

 

I read Nash's book ....came out last year ?
Can't remember the title ?
*
He writes a bit about how bad a drug habit Crosby had.
His story about a kid's mother - trying to get her young son's
songs heard - by any of The Hollies - is a CLASSIC !!
That kid became "10cc."

 

Joe. The book by Nash was titled Wild Tales......

 

Tony,

what did you think of the venue?-haven't been there yet did they do a nice renovation?

 

Grund. Renovation was fantastic....... In conversation with one of the ushers I believe he said they sunk about 95 million into the place. Crosby even commented at the start of the show and I quote " the place is fuking gorgeous". Which it truly was.

 

cool. I'm out on the Island but will probably end up going to something there soon

 

I would love to see that! When I lived in the area the theater was getting very seedy. I'm glad they put some TLC into it.

I also remember the Albemarle down the street. (Has to be the most misspelled and mispronounced theater, and street, in the world!)

But back to the subject, too bad C and Y are spatting! I always enjoyed most all of their music, from all of them, individually or collectively.

 

Grund

Jackson Browne and Ringo Starr are playing there.......... Not together but on 2 separate dates.......... and I also saw that Stills is playing @ the City Winery down on Varick street In July
