    You are correct. Not very gracious, bordering on arrogant. He is playing at Stephen Stills autism benefit tonight. If I see him I will ask him. 😆

    I think JD’s comments suggest we should NOT assume SM will be on board next tour. I have no definite info to back this up, but hints and portents tell me Lu and Stu are semi-permanent, exclusive.

    Probably right stoger.. (hope so).

    Losing Stuart (even short-term) from Lu’s crew would be like driving with One Headlight.

    I’m going to go the other way on this. I think Lu is off the road those dates so he can do both. 8)

    To answer the question no one is asking, Jakob Dylan did 2 songs at Stephen Stills’ Autism Benefit tonight at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood.

    Stills opened with Girl From North Country, solo acoustic. Then Jakob Dylan came out and did Questions, a song by Stills, then did his big hit 10th Avenue Heartache something or other. Dylan was accompanied by the house band of Chris Stills and friends. No Wallflowers in sight. He did not stick around after the show so I did not get to pester him with inane questions.

    Stills was the next to last performer and was with his band The Rides, featuring Kenny Wayne Shepherd, for some reason. Neil Young closed with 7 songs: Heart of Gold, Thrasher, and Out on the Weekend, all solo acoustic, Human Highway with Stephen Stills and Chris Stills, then Mr. Soul, For What it’s Worth, and Rockin in the Free World, all electric and at deafening volume. The final song was performed with about 275 people on the stage.

    This was Stills 4th Autism Benefit and I must say, other than Young, this show was the least talent laden of the 4. The first one was the best and that was the one where Lu performed.
