More Cowbell
April 15th, 2008 | Posted in » Entertainment
Just now I was reading Power Line (it’s a daily read). There was a post up that linked to the famous SNL skit with Christopher Walken calling for more cowbell. Good humor.
This reminds me of a story Graham Nash shared about Neil Young.
I once went down to Neil Young’s ranch and he rowed me out into the middle of a lake - putting my life in his hands once again. He waved at someone invisible and music started to play in
the countryside. I realized Neil had his house wired as the left speaker and his barn wired as the right speaker.And Elliot Mazer, his engineer said, ‘How is it?’
And Neil shouted back ‘More barn!”
I used to have the T-shirt documenting that event.
Anyhow, let’s hear more cowbell!
