As nice as it is that he’s willing to answer fan questions, someone needs to take David Crosby’s Twitter handle away. Bury it, burn it, do something, because the man is making out to seem like a total curmudgeon. After tweeting some beyond-snide comments about Kanye West in response to a fan’s question back in March, Crosby went on to compliment a bunch of other people.
