Neil Young Shames Concert Promoters for Hosting Live Shows: Money Motives ‘Super Spreader Events’
Breitbart ^ | 8-28-21 | ALANA MASTRANGELO

Left-wing rocker Neil Young, who has an estimated net worth of $200 million, attacked concert promoters for doing business as coronavirus case spikes continue to grip parts of the U.S. “Stop these shows” and “forget about making money for a while” Young said.

“The big promoters, if they had the awareness, could stop these shows. Without that, everyone just keeps going like everything is OK. It’s not,” Young said of concerts being held in the coronavirus era, according to a report by Stereogum. “Live Nation, AEG and the other big promoters could shut this down if they could just forget about making money for a while.”

“They hold the power to stop shows where thousands congregate and spread. It’s money that keeps it going. Money that motivates the spreading. The big promoters are responsible for super spreaders,” Young said. He insisted that concert promoters are adding to pandemic era problems by making people “think it must be OK to go and mingle.”

Neil Young is a coward. Always has been a coward. Treated Carrie like garbage a left her alone to care for his disabled child.

You are a coward Neil. An old fool and a sickening coward.

Aside from his brief support of Reagan in the ‘80s, always been as ignorantly leftist as his three equally insufferable, equally ignorant, singers in csn&y. I was done with him years ago.Even if he is the most talented member of that loathsome foursome, they’re still 4 peas from the same leftist pod.

Don’t want to be a Canadian idiot
Don’t want to be some beer swillin’ hockey nut
And do I look like some frost bitten hosehead
I never learned my alphabet from A to zed
They all live on donuts and moose meat
And they leave the house without packin’ heat
Never even bring their guns to the mall
And you know what else is too funny
Their stupid monopoly money
Can’t take ‘em seriously at all
Well maple syrup and snow’s what they export
They treat curling just like it’s a real sport
They think their silly accent is so cute
Can’t understand a thing they’re talking aboot
Sure they got their national health care
Cheaper meds, low crime rates and clean air
Then again well they got Celine Dion
Eat their weight in Kraft macaroni
And dream of driving a Zamboni
All over Saskatchewan
Don’t want to be a Canadian idiot
We’ll figure out their temperature in Celsius
See the map they’re hovering right over us
Tell you the truth it makes me kinda nervous
Always hear the same kind of story
Break your nose and they’ll just say sorry
Tell me what kind of freaks are that polite
It’s gotta mean they’re all up to something
So quick before they see it coming
Time for a pre-emptive strike

-Weird Al Yankovic

How long has it been since Neil has put out a great record? Can’t blame that on concert promoters or covid. Even Dylan still writes songs that resonate.

Fortunately we seldom see him around here. He went Hollywood or California at least way back.
