I think this is Joni's song of regrets about James Taylor (but possibly Nash). I don't think Joni is just another one of the groupies in the song, but rather the girlfriend who can't deal with the groupies any longer. It's Joni who can't count on her plans, compete with the fans, the girls and the band and the rock and roll man.
In the JT bio that came out a couple years ago there is quite a bit about the relationship with Joni. It said that Taylor was a bit of a devil-may-care womanizer back then who cheated on her and that she couldn't take it after a point. This was the first I'd heard of him cheating on her with others besides Carly. The bios I've read about CSNY have Nash saying only that his absences on the road contributed to the break-up and that he regretted not being more sensitive to her feeling a bit left out. Somehow I cannot see Nash cheating on her but who knows. Kakki
