Tin Soldiers and Nixon Coming


May 4, 2020, 1:51 PM

We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drumming
4 dead in Ohio

A favorite song of mine - remember when it was released.....

but is dated now. Young people probably don't understand what the reference to Nixon is all about.

It happened on today's date 50 years ago.

I was in Nam at the time - lots of mixed feelings

about the demonstrations back home. Could understand why they wanted to, but felt like it made no difference in getting us back home.

If I ever wrote a book about my time there it would be titled "Make Believe Soldiers". It mostly felt like there was little effort to take actions that would actually win the war.

I remember one of CSNY saying "Someone said we've written over 400 songs."

Then another one of them said "Yeah, Neil probably wrote about 390 of them."

Too bad all four of those guys couldn't coexist in the same group at the same time for very long.

Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her


May 4, 2020, 11:47 PM

Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around, anyhow

Those guys are clowns compared to Neil

. 100 years from now, nobody will know who they even were, while people still sing Old Man.

And my taxes still pay for those deadbeats in Alabama, for f*ck’s sake.
