I wonder if after this run of solo dates he will head out with POTR like he did in 2019. Didn’t Micah mention something about “maybe going out Neil” a while back in some interview?
This sounds very similar to how I saw him a few years ago, despite the fact that it wasn't deep cuts. I'd say they were old standbys, so not Heart Of Gold, but your "Only Love Will Break My Heart", "The Loner", etc, that was just a joy to hear back to back to back. But after 40 minutes of sitting there switching up acoustic guitars and songs, he then just picks up an electric and launches into Ohio. The way you said it was perfect, it was a thunderstorm of a reaction. I'd really never heard anything like its, and its something only someone like Neil can conjure. It was beautiful and not that I thought he couldn't, but I'm glad to hear he can still do that to a crowd.Quote

Neil was fantastic. Crowd was really into it, despite deep-cuts nature of the tour. Then when Neil would play a rare hit "Heart of Gold" or "Ohio" the crowd would become a thunder storm.

These look like great shows. If I was on the west coast, I'd definitely have tried. Gotta love these guys while we still can. I mean, @#$%&, he's out there doing Vampire Blues at 77 years old, what's cooler than that?!
Sorry for all your troubles getting there, but glad it all paid off.

Good stuff BeastyBurdeny - aside from the car problems of course!

Saw Neil last night in Napa. Musically he was great but his rambling between songs was a bit concerning. He seem a bit confused and sounded as coherent as Bob Weir. I hope I am wrong.

Seems like "Ragged Glory - Smell the Horse" is now finally released - at least digitally:

Registered for Neil Young + Crazy Horse at the Roxy but didn't get picked to purchase tickets. Anyone get lucky? Don't worry, not fishing for a spare ticket--just curious if anyone is going.

Pretty tough pill to swallow, at a thousand + a ticket. Service fees will be 200-300 per ticket too. Was hoping they'd be $500 tops, but the demand would be even higher at that price. Anyway, hope someone gets some good recordings/videos

Micah Nelson is going to fill in for Nils Lofgren at the Roxy shows & possibly more. It looks like Springsteen is going to tour summer of 2024. The recent postponed Bruce shows in Philly have been rescheduled for next summer.
