At last night’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, this is what Neil Young said about the war:
“One thing is on my mind before I get to Mo,” he said. “War sucks the big one, it just sucks. We’re having a good time tonight, but we’re gonna kill a lot of people next week. Let’s not forget about that. I didn’t want to ruin this, but it’s too real to not mention it. And music used to be about this, and it still is about this. This is a human thing, and these are human beings over there. And we’re making a huge mistake. I feel like I’m in a giant, gas-guzzling SUV and the driver’s drunk as a fuckin’ skunk.” (full story)
