Deadpool 2023

Sorry - didn't have any anecdotes about seeing DC once in the 70s :Smile:
In Birmingham.
Actually I saw him (along with Graham Nash) much more recently than in the 70's.Not in Brum either but at the Palau de La Musica back in 2005.Remember GN going on how about how lucky we were in Barna to have such a venue!
 
Saw CSN in Bournemouth around 2010/11, great concert. I am amazed Crosby lived to be 81 considering his life style, but some of his recent solo work is well worth hearing. Just McGuinn and Hillman left of the original Byrds.
 
I am not sure if it is urban legend but I head David Crosby was quoted as saying something along the lines of "I was sent to jail for something I didn't do. I didn't hide the drugs and guns"

I think he was a bit peeved about being sent down for five years after being found in possession of "only a quarter of a gram of coke" at a nightclub. It was about a couple of years after John Lennon was shot and he was also carrying a gun - he never used to before JL's murder. He didn't do the whole stretch, I think he was paroled about after a few months - but he said that time helped him to kick the coke.

His autobiography 'Long Time Gone' (1989) gives a full account of all this and is well worth reading.
