Neil Young

[hatfieldpdx]

The two times I saw NY had Social Distortion (Ragged Glory tour) and James (solo Harvest Moon tour), both were phenomenal (although I would have preferred to see Sonic Youth over Social D)

When I saw Neil on the Ragged Glory tour, it was Social Distortion AND Sonic Youth opening. Epic!

The only time I saw Neil, Bert Jansch opened.

The only time I saw Neil, Bert Jansch opened.

Well, they all can’t be winners.

I saw a living legend not too long before he died. He was awesome

neil young is one of maybe 5 artists with 15 or more records in my collection. the others are miles davis, john coltrane, ahmad jamal, stereolab... and bert jansch.

The 1991 openers were almost as scorching as NY&CH. What a show.

I saw Neil twice in 1983 about 8 months apart.

First show was solo Trans Tour - acoustic numbers mixed with recorded backup loops and vocoder and synths and hosted by Dan Clear.

Second show was more Neil Trans solo but this time he was the opener. The headliner...

Spoiler

The Shocking Pinks so I guess Neil technically opened for himself.

This is a couple years old but such a great conversation...

I hope he included Will to Love on that with the crackling fireplace sounds.

A number of shows were posted on the Archives for all subscriber levels under the playlists section. Listening to the Cork show w/ Crazy Horse, its a scorcher.
