  1. I've met a few VCers the past four years at shows around the NYC and New England area. All nice folks. Wouldn't mind meeting "old man Louie" some day. We probably have a lot more in common that not despite our differing views on the 2012 election.

  3. If they could cut it to three minutes and stick it in the middle of two other songs as you mentioned I could deal with it being played in concert. It is way too long and takes up too much concert time for my taste for a song that is so repetitive and kind of boring after that three minute mark. I know people love it but I don't really get the same thrill on this one.
  4. Fed up and disillusioned, not bored. Posting here is so exciting. Agree on the same old powers http://www.globalres...eight-families/ They are still there and more powerful than ever. We are far from being intensely capitalistic. If you mean fascistic I might agree with you there.

  7. The Federal Reserve is as federal as Federal Express. It is a private banking cartel that is answerable to no one. And that is the fault of both political parties who have failed to exercise their constitutional duties of over-site as well as surrendering their power to run our monetary system. Long live the IRS. Stealing the fruits of American labor through direct taxation, which is prohibited under the Constitution, for the last 100 years. Look, you don't have top agree with every argument made in the introduction, but facts are facts. They are both leading us down the same path and we give

  9. Neil Young and the stray Gators, Time Fades Away tour, the New Haven Coliseum, Jan. 25, 1973. A day or two after Tricky Dick announced the agreement to end US involvement in Vietnam War and the night Jean Dixon predicted the Coliseum would collapse. No better way to die as I recall my thinking at the time. Have a self made bootleg of this show on a cassette somewhere in a box in the basement. Great show. I remember an encore featuring a blistering Southern Man and a bouncy Are You Ready for the Country? My first concert was supposed to be Badfinger at the Shakespeare Theater in Stratford, CT i
