Are we going to see him smoking a doobie with Joe Rogan anytime soon?
I agree. I have all of Neils 70s albums on vinyl and they don’t gather dust... also CSNY and Buffalo Springfield. I love listening to Young’s music still.
It’s a ‘love / hate’ sort of thing.. love his music, despise his politics. I have no problem listening to music made by people I disagree with.. if I did, there wouldn’t be much music left to listen to.
There’s not really any hypocrisy there. His problem with GMOs isn’t that they exist, it’s how the business is run. Monsanto puts some pretty awful clauses in their contracts.
Mental illness drives art, whatever the form.
Enjoy what they produce, but don’t expect their ideas to be cogent or be words to live by…
I’ve see the needle and the damage done.
He smokes dope every day.
Not a health guy. Brain is probably completely fried.
He truly is a horrible person. He will be easily forgotten as he should be now. Don’t cancel, just turn your back.
As much as I hate much of the anti-GMO nonsense, There’s a difference between using a prescribed GMO for a prescribed medical condition and wanting our basic food chain to be free of GMOs.

Now THERE’S your absurd hypocrisy.
Stephen Stills was the real talent in CSNY.
Winnipeg produced many good things. Things like ‘The Guess Who’, Randy Bachmann, the Jets, etc.
Unfortunately, it also produced bad things, like champagne socialist, Neil Young.
“A Southern man don’t need him around anyhow.”
Thanks, Lynnard Skynnard.
I wish I had a dollar for every time I sang it, including singing his very name. LOL
Sweet Home Alabama?
A Southern man don’t need him around, anyhow.
How do you know that he smokes weed everyday? I don’t doubt it, just wondering how you know.
Poor old guy is mired in the tar pits of hippie Gaia worship and feeding Moloch’s furnace.
Thus he is, by definition, insane. Insane by choice. Freakin’ goofy freak. He’s hasn’t lived in the real world for 60 years.
However, his best music stands apart and also the test of Time. I don’t think of him when I hear it so much as I think of me and my life while loving the song for its own self.
I don’t do Spotify but for me, it’s Rogan and Young.
Let’s go Brandon!
There's a new documentary on you tube, called something like "The Barn". Before he starts practicing with the band he walks over to the stage and says he needs a smoke and fires up a joint. That tells me he's probably a regular smoker.
Shut up and play is still pretty good advice for muscians. Starting with the album ‘Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere’ and going through ‘Live Rust’, there’s not band or artist that can match what Young did in that era IMO.
