Today i started reading through my local paper, the Asbury Park Press, and stumbled upon a disgruntled Crosby,Stills, Nash & Young fan's letter to the editor.
must have missed the bush memo Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11
Two months ago,I purchased tickets to see Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at the PNC Arts Center in Holmdel. I was waiting for the four of them to tour again, as i have always been a big Neil Young fan
So far i'm with him. I also love their music and have enjoyed their concerts over the years.
I had never seen them so I was expecting to have a wonderful time. I couldn't have been more disappointed. It was horrible.
They started off the night with a few old songs and then the stage was handed over to Young's new anti-war album. I wasn't aware that he had put one out
Where have you been? Living under a rock or something. Get that Toby Keith disc out of your cd player!
I waited until the second set. I said to my friend that maybe this set will be devoted to the old stuff.
They started off with "Immigration Man", which was really good and got my hopes up when they went into "Guinnevere" and "Our House."
I was really happy until they started singing "Find the Cost of Freedom" while tallying the bodies on the CNN screen behind them. It was very touching and made you think, but it isn't what i was there for.
Huh? That's what a concert of lyrics and music should do! MAKE YOU THINK AND TOUCH YOUR SPIRIT!
Here is the problem: I did not come to an anti-war rally. I did not pay for an anti-war rally and I did not expect to be sitting at an anti-war rally. I have been robbed of my $350.
It's a concert, where you see an artist,WHO EVER KNEW CSN&Y WERE ANTI-WAR ?, he must be braindead to spend such an amount of money and not know their history.
but my favorite, apparently he missed our fearless leader say not so long ago... that Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11
If they had balanced it out and put the Twin Towers of 9/11 on their fake CNN screen to show why we are where we are, I might have been able to tolerate it, but i doubt it.We walked out as the next song was beginning, which started with "Impeach the President."
Wow, so CSN&Y should be like Fox News, fair and balanced. It's amazing how so many people in this great country have been brainwashed and still believe IRAQ attacked us on 9-11-2001. UNFUCKING BELIEVABLE
