You gotta respect a Lynyrd Skynryd quote. Didn't old Neil record the flight 93 song "Let's Roll" or something like that? I guess his recent anti-Bush album puts him in the doghouse around here. I still have vivid memories of his "Out of the Blue and into the Black" from my first laserium show as a young teenager so maybe I just harbor a soft spot for the guy.

(It's your password today, Silence!)

I can handle anti-Bush stuff pretty well. My larger complaint against Young, Neil is his representation of "the 60's." I'm pretty tired of the generation that is so proud of its role in ending the Vietnam War (who cares about the killing fields of Cambodia or the boat people -- we got our way and my Sociology professor said we care).

I'm also a dedicated non-fan or Young, Neil's music. I'm glad you have happy memories, I think of long-haired college kids singing his songs badly on the Pearl Street Mall.

['Course, when I was a kid we didn't have no "Laserium" we drank beer and took No-Doz and somebody moved a flashlight across the ceiling -- and we liked it!]
