Canadian music legend Neil Young made a surprise appearance Saturday at an old-growth logging protest rally at the British Columbia legislature.
Young played acoustic guitar and harmonica, and sang two songs: "Comes A Time," which has a chorus about tall trees, and his hit "Heart of Gold."
"That's something I hope our Canadian government and business section will recognize that this has to do with Canada," he said. "It has to do with the ages, if we are lucky enough to have ages. These trees have lasted so long they deserve Canada's respect." Young was introduced by his wife, actress Daryl Hannah, who said the cold weather was giving her a bit of brain freeze.
