Rock legend Graham Nash will present "Wild Tales" in Puyallup

In "Wild Tales," Graham Nash tells a few stories about the supergroup constantly at each other’s throats in drug-fueled rages while the world grooved to the harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash and sometimes Young.

I always get uneasy when musicians attempt to cross over to stage and screen. John Bon Jovi on Ally McBeal? No amount of chest waxing could make him tolerable. Britney Spears in Crossroads? No longer a girl, not yet an actress. Madonna in ... anything. Run for the aisles!

Graham Nash of Crosby, Stills & Nash demonstrated his inner Andy Warhol in his photography exhibits and books. His fiercely intimate self-portraits made me wonder if I've intruded on a private moment. There has been tenderness, a reverence about his stunning images.

Nash has written another book, this time his autobiography, Wild Tales: A Rock and Roll Life. Puyallup Public Library will host Nash for a book signing at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 13. No, seriously.

According to pre-visit hype, "Graham Nash - legendary singer-songwriter and founding member of the iconic bands Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Hollies - delivers an engrossing, no-holds-barred look back at his remarkable career and the music that defined a generation."

The Puyallup Library folks warn the author will only sign copies of Wild Tales and the CSNY 1974 box set, "that only guests with at least one copy of the book will be allowed in the signing line and there will be no posed photos with the author.  King's Books of Tacoma will be in hand with copies of Wild Tales for purchase and signing." 

This is a free event; no registration is required. Doors will open for the limited-seating event at noon and you're out the door by 2 p.m.
