Are you still mad Neil?
Come on.
David Crosby’s personal relationship with Neil Young appeared to fall apart late last year when Crosby commented on Young’s personal life. Now Crosby has taken to Twitter, over a period days, to both reach out to Young and to explain a complicated relationship that has been a cornerstone for the often-fractured Crosby Stills Nash and Young since the Woodstock era, according to Something Else!
“He’s pretty mad at me,” Crosby admits, before revealing: “I apologized. We’ll see.”
The article goes on to state that even in this period of reconciliation, however, David Crosby can’t hide his feelings on Neil Young’s lo-fi Letter from Home album, recorded in Jack White’s throwback phone booth. Crosby deftly avoided answering, thus making his real opinion clear. Asked whether Young can be difficult to work with, Crosby is more magnanimous. “Sometimes, yes; sometimes, no,” he says. “He’s very intelligent, can be funny.”
CNSY last toured together on 2006.

David Crosby mentions Neil Young in an interview posted on AccessAtlanta.com.
Melissa Ruggieri writes of Crosby: “There’s a different kind of love for the erstwhile Neil Young, who is currently working on another album and book as well as helping develop Pono, a high-resolution digital music download service and music player set to debut in October. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that CSNY is extinct. Or maybe it is. No one is ever quite sure, it seems.”
“It’s difficult to know. He already told us once that he was going to (be back with us) and changed his mind, and now he’s making noises that he wants to do it again,” Crosby said. “God bless Neil. I love him and I love working with him because he so completely wants to push the edge, but he’s a very mercurial guy. I can’t count on him, but I do love to play with him.”

Wembley Stadium, London, Sept. 14, 1974
David Crosby talks to Rolling Stone about his upcoming tour, a possible CSNY 1974 live package, and wonders about a CSN&Y tour, after a stint at the recent Bridge School concert turned out “so good.”
The group played their first gig since 2006 at the Bridge School Benefit in late October. Did Young bring up the possibility of a tour at any point?
According to the RS interview: “No,” says Crosby. “He was, as usual, concentrating on the music. But you know Neil, he’s got his antennas up. He is paying attention. He may not look like it, but he is. The shows felt really good, so that bodes well. We have no idea though. I stress that. I repeat that. We have no idea.”
Crosby goes on: ” It would be nice to know sometime soon, but I can’t torture myself about it . . . I would dearly love for it to happen, but it’s not up to me. I’m not in charge. I do think there is more music to be made, really good music. I love it when it’s just the four of us onstage with acoustic guitars, a piano and a pump organ. That’s because it becomes all about the songs. It really strips it all down.”
Crosby is convinced that the long-awaited box set from their 1974 reunion tour will finally come out.
“It should come out in March or April, something like that,” he says. “It got pushed back for good reason. We’re gonna put a DVD with it. We have pieces from about eight separate shows.” There is a complete film of their tour-closing marathon show at London’s Wembley Stadium, but don’t expect that to make it onto the package. “Nope,” says Crosby. “We were a little too jittery that night.”

Britain’s best music magazine “Uncut” says David Crosby has been tweeting about a forthcoming album from CSN&Y.
CSNY have long been rumoured to be working on a live album taken from their 1974 tour.
“We’re talking to Neil about the resolution he wants everything at. Because of the world Neil is in, he wants it at the highest possible – which is always advisable,” said Graham Nash.
