Crosby, Stills and Nash MSG 7/22/78

The past two years have been a banner time for me with Crosby, Stills, and Nash. In 2014 I had the good fortune to see David Crosby at City Winery supporting his album “Croz”.
In September, 2013 Stephen Stills was on tour with The Rides (with the phenomenal Beth Hart opening) at the former Westbury Music Fair and Graham Nash was on a solo tour that also stopped in Westbury. Then this past 4th of July weekend my wife and I had the pleasure to see Crosby, Stills, Nash at Bethel Woods near Woodstock.

CSN have an extraordinary catalog of songs and a passion for the music that is unsurpassed.
These legendary musicians are obviously not kids any more; Stephen’s voice, in particular, is a bit raggedy and rough at times but he fights through the vocal limitations like a prideful prizefighter and to be able to see the band deliver the music and persevere live in concert is still a thrill.

Neil Young has said that he will never play with CSN again (apparently from some disparaging quotes Crosby made in the press regarding Darryl Hannah). I actually witnessed Neil say CSNY would not reunite during a solo acoustic show at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia and he said it again on the Howard Stern show.

Crosby, Stills, and Nash are back on tour again this spring and summer.
The road goes on forever for these rock and roll icons.

CSNY drummer Dallas Taylor passed away on 1/18/2015.
RIP

Carry On
