Neil Young News: Greendale Songbook Winner

Greendale Songbook Winner

Congratulations to Steve Cross for his winning entry in the Greendale Songbook Contest.

Steve has a great story about chasing Neil Young and Crazy Horse for their autograph on a "Feedback is Back" poster.

The tale takes place on the Greendale tour at the Starlight Amphitheatre in Kansas City, KS on August 9th, 2003.

While not all of our heroes fare well in this saga, Steve and his brother will not be denied!

More on the Don't Spook The Horse Quest.

Again, congratulations Steve. And thanks to all the other submissions. A tough choice. More on runner-ups shortly.

It shows CSN really is a bunch of old guys who don't give a %^&* about the fans. Even if Neil is a grump, it doesn't matter because he is still making better music than CSN have ever done.
