Language

There seems to be an issue on the language button. I‘m not able to switch to German and from German I‘m not able to switch back to English. Roooooon (talk) 17:59, 13 April 2019 (UTC)

Roooooon - the problem would likely be with your browser, the links are working OK. SilkTork (talk) 13:09, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Tours section

It is useful to have a tours section, and this section has collected together some data. The section now needs to be built on - at the moment it is notes toward an informative section, though doesn't allow the reader to understand the significance of the tours or to adequately differentiate them as the section simply contains (in two different formats, duplicating the information) a list of (mostly non-notable) backing musicians. It takes up a lot of space while saying very little. I have flagged the section for attention as I don't know if I'll have the time to work on it myself. SilkTork (talk) 18:04, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

History section

The group's Auditorium appearance in Chicago on Aug 16, 1969, is widely stated as having been their first concert, with Woodstock -- the next day -- being their second. But the site cited below, which appears authoritative, shows many club appearances in New York City and Ottawa in the fall and winter of 1968-69. That was before the release of CS&N's first album and well before Chicago and Woodstock. (It is unclear to me whether these are confused with the article's reference to rehearsals at Cafe au Go Go, and the article's exact timeline is unclear, so I am ignoring that.) The archive also indicates an appearance at the Fillmore East on July 25, 1969. I have therefore added the words "major public" in describing Chicago and Woodstock. https://www.concertarchives.org/bands/crosby-stills-nash-young?page=11#concert-table Eplater (talk) 00:37, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Soundtrack music for Easy Rider

In the course watching the "documentary" Shaking the Cage which is a bonus DVD feature to Easy Rider, it was mentioned that the group (sans Young if I am remembering accurately) was considered for providing the soundtrack music for the movie according to Peter Fonda. After viewing the rough cut with the temp music in place, the group declined with the "admission" that they could not improve on what was already there. Is this something worth including in this article? I'm up for doing so (with a re-watch of the feature to verify the info) if folks feel it would be beneficial to the article.

There are other articles that give decidedly different reasons for them not being part of the soundtrack. I would not include this in the CSNY article. It might be relevant to the Easy Rider article if contrary reasons are also included Bob Caldwell CSL (talk) 17:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
