Neil Young random trivia

Raised in Omemee, Ontario. Scott Young Public School in Omemee is named after his father. When filming the motion-picture The Last Waltz, Young appeared on stage with one nostril clearly filled with cocaine. Band leader Robbie Robertson later had to pay several thousand dollars for the cocaine to be rotoscoped out of the film, lest rock audiences be "offended." Robertson called it "the most expensive cocaine I've ever bought." When asked about the incident many years later, Young replied, "I'm not proud of that." Refused a million dollar offer to appear at "Woodstock '94" on the basis of its over-emphasis on commercialism.
