When David Crosby & Friends performed at The Regent Theatre in Arlington, Massachusetts on Monday, the show featured more than just his famous hits.
The singer spoke out against President Donald Trump during the show. Following the concert, an attendee reached out to the founding member of Crosby, Stills & Nash on Twitter, asking Crosby to stick to music.
"Don't you realize that you will piss off 1/2 of your audience or at least 1/3 in liberal areas when you do that?" the fan wrote in a tweet mentioning the singer.
In response, Crosby said:
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
In a following tweet, Crosby shared that he will do what he wishes during his performances.
Crosby has spoken against Trump for some time. In an interview with the IndyStar earlier this fall, he spoke of performing Neil Young's "Let's Impeach the President" while touring and compared Trump to previous presidents.
"We thought we had it bad with Bush, but now we have a guy who's 10 times worse than Bush," Crosby told the IndyStar. "I've been trying to write a song about Trump, man, but he's so egregiously bad that I haven't managed it, yet."
18 large plus half the gate? That’s not exactly Beatles territory, but many would cut off their right arm to get it.
Boorish ingrate. I wouldn’t go see him if the tickets were free.
True but his poignant voice did fit on some songs like their biggest song
LTG
i saw csny and csn a few times early 70s
Long Time Gone was the. Son folks screamed for the whole show with Almost Cut Amy Hair
Both Crosbys high voice which fit those songs his dadtness notwithstanding
It was so bad with LTG that Stills in his southern accent then went to the Mike and said
We are going to play Long Time Gone....long pause......Last.
“Now relax”
It was funny actually
Stills and Young is a toss up for most talented
I prefer Stills but mostly for Manassas
It’s ok considering only people over 50 even know who he is or was
He has to pay his crew likely unless he’s just a drop in

It's not the drugs, it's the stupidity. Ya can't fix stupid.
David Crosby ... fat, balding, maybe back on drugs, aged hippie who hates all Vietnam Vets, now tells the audience to kiss off.
Did that years ago, boyo.
Vote with your feet, I got a refund on tickets for a Pink Floyd show when I heard it was 50% anti-Trump BS, I won’t pay for that.
Ok Dave, but I’d have to been to any of your concert, before I can stop going. Of cours, to go to any of your crappy shows, I would give money to you, but I don’t support liberal morons...

I’ve heard this too. They should have used the other end of the horse in the picture. :>
He's not bankrupt anymore, but he's not wealthy. When he was recording with his son he basically begged the audience to buy his album. I think it was home made.
From what I've heard, his newest stuff is very good. I was never a fan, but musically, he has aged well.
Crosby stuff is so bad, it does not get hardly any covers. It’s all simpleton politics and irrelevant now in this time frame. Hey man, did you hear they shot Vietnam protesters ? Would be funny to take Crosby into some Vietnamese coffee bars in Cali.
Libs: “Reagan is Hitler....er...Bush Sr. is Hitler.....er...Bush Jr. is Hitler....Romney is Hitler....seriously this time, Trump is Hitler!!!”
And Keith Richards, like cockroaches seem to last forever.
I hope the younger Trump supporters start disrupting these clowns, just like the left does all the time. The left gets away with their arrogant crap. Time to end that.
Yeah - but stupid + drugs is a very bad combination!
Back at you. Insanity is running rampant!
Don’t sully that song by tying it to Crosby. He didn’t appear on the track. :)
