Neil Young telling an appropriate story.

Unlike many left wing artists who actually have considerable musical talent, Neil Young mostly sucks. There’s probably only one song of his that I won’t immediately turn off if I have control over the source, and I have never had any of his songs in any playlist of mine and of course have never paid money for anything he’s ever done.

So when I heard him years ago telling a story about how right after some show he did, some guys told him he sucked, I was greatly amused that he actually told the story, and found the “you suck” to be spot on. His comeback to the guys was pathetic and just added to the whole effect.

Like so many things though, search engines are pathetic when it comes to finding anything obscure. I tried Metager search first, and then tried a Google search where I put in a date range from 1980 to 2012. If you search for anything Neil Young now you’re going to get stories about his attempts to censor Rogan on Spotify. Even with my date range filter, I could not find the story I was looking for.

So, a bonus prize to anyone who can find a link to the story I am talking about. It needs to go viral about now.
