HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mr YOUNG
Published: October 22, 2023
This November 12 Neil Young will be 200 years old. He will celebrate by eating a whole cake made of marijuana heads and maple syrup, having a Jacuzzi spa with Joni Mitchell and Daryl Hannah and kicking Steve Stills in the nuts. He will then put on a party hat and punch Dave Crosby in the guts. I’m not sure how he feels about Graeme Nash; I believe there’s some sort of connection there because of the Commonwealth and Canada and all that crap so he’ll probably just call Nash a Tosser and run over his Morris Minor with a John Deere tractor.
Which sounds like a lot of fun to me and wish I was there to cheer him on, but next…
… being the oldest, toughest, meanest, angriest, gnarliest, whiniest, fight-ingest country rock singer the earth has ever produced, NASA will shove him in a rocket and send him up to orbit the earth where he will guard our planet from any alien country rock songwriter/singers who want to come over here and take our jobs, stick their own alien whiney country rock songs on Spotify and get away with probably as much as $11.58 of earth dollars, shipped back to the Andromeda constellation or wherever they come from, tax-FREE!
Mr Neil Young, the bloke who taught Bob Dylan how to whine, will kick those alien country rock singer/songwriters in the nuts, punch ‘em in the guts and probably even give them a Chinese burn on the wanking wrist to send them packing back to their alien trailer parks.
Us lesser country rock singer/songwriters will then be safe from alien country rock song invasion.
And free… to celebrate Neil Young’s birthday in the only way we know how. We won’t have a marijuana cake but we might have a carrot cake with coriander flakes and cream cheese icing with sprinkles and we’ll be spending a delightful afternoon playing beautifully crafted renditions of some of Neil’s best-loved songs — and perhaps some of those not so well-liked but, tough shit, it’s our gig — up at the Three Brothers Arms, Macclesfield on November 11.
Nah… fuk the cake idea. Pizza and beer will do the job. But Young Neil and Horse Crazy will be cranking out the best of Neil Young and his Crazy Horsies at the Three Brothers Arms November 11 so buy a ticket — buy two! — and get up there on November 11. If you haven’t got a car start — walking now.

Fuk… I think somebody swapped my meds.
