Counting a short break, Crosby, Stills & Nash delivered almost three hours of great tunes and great memories at the Chateau Ste. Michelle winery in Woodinville, WA on September 13th. The show was packed, but the venue was well managed and the winery's products were perfectly matched to the warm, late summer evening.
After so many years, CS&N have a huge catalog of old and new material, which they blended almost perfectly. Unlike some concerts,where 'the star' mails it in, these guys did a great job of storytelling around some of their most memorable hits. Of the three, David Nash has best maintained his voice and playing; David Crosby's vocals got stronger as the evening progressed; Stephen Stills couldn't carry a tune in a paper bag, but his guitar playing was absolutely fantastic. A great evening under the stars!
