Neil Young's 1959 'Thinkin Lincoln' A Hit At Salesforce Gathering

 Young has equipped the nearly 20-foot long 1959 Lincoln with electronics that capture its operational data, display it on a screen below the dash, and transmit it to the Internet. He stopped by Salesforce (NYSE: CRM).com's user group meeting in San Francisco yesterday to talk about his beloved, 5,000-pound convertible, one of several vintage cars he owns, to describe how he's trying to convert it into a model of ingenuity and efficiency.

Ronnie Wood claims bandmates have forgotten how to play

Ronnie Wood claims bandmates have forgotten how to play: "Ronnie Wood claims his Rolling Stones bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have forgotten how to play their greatest hits. The 60-year-old bassist has to remind the rockers which notes to play on classic tracks such as 'Satisfaction' and 'Brown Sugar' - even though they wrote them."
This is why the Elderly Brothers keep a big book with all of our tunes on stage, in a very large, easy-to-read font.

Of course, the journalist for this Bang Showbiz article has his/her own issues: since when is Ron Wood the bassist?
