------
Legendary musician David Crosby has been arrested on cannabis and gun possession charges in a New York hotel.
The singer, 62, founder of both The Byrds and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, returned from New Jersey after a concert to the Double Tree Suites Hotel in Times Square, Manhattan, in the early hours of Saturday, where he had been residing earlier in the week.
A hotel employee found the bag, which Crosby had left behind upon checking out, and searched it to identify the owner. The worker discovered marijuana, a .45-caliber handgun and two knives.
Upon returning to the hotel to collect his possessions, Crosby was met by police and arrested.
Now released on $3,500 bail, Crosby faces up to seven years behind bars if the gun charge is convicted.
In 1985 he was convicted of drug possession in Dallas, Texas, and spent a year in prison before his conviction was overturned on appeal.

Gee, and I thought Melissa Etheridge chose him as her sperm donor because of his good looks, not his charm school behavior.... |

A set-up?
He had dope, guns and knives in a bag he left behind in a hotel.
He sent a hotel employee back to get it!
That ain't a set up -- that's a FUCK UP! |

Good point nanker..nonetheless, with the strict gun laws in New York City, he may be looking at some time at the grey bar hotel. |
