    How did you go? I got 2 for the Sydney show pretty easily. (I'm always nervous when tickets go on sale though, no matter how big a show it is)

    I can't wait for March! :)

  • i am thoroughly blown away from the sunday show i saw with Neil and the Horse.


    can someone please point me in the right directions for bootlegs, i must hear the show again.

    you guys should hear this show too....Neil went OFF during fuckin up.....then the jam got REALLY weird....

    Walk Like a Giant was stupendous. one of the best things ive heard/seen at a show. cant get it out of my head.

    I need this boot. Where do i get Neil boots?


    Here is my review of the show, if you are up to the task: (includes powderfinger, needle and fuckin up clips)

    Does anyone have any experience of hanging around after Neil's shows & meeting him? Like, does he do the meet, greet, shake hands, say hello, take a pic thing or does he just bail, or does he even bail straight after he finishes so he's gone before fans come out? Anyone know? Anyone? TIA. :)

    All your reviews of the album is making me want to go buy it today.

    Is this a good new Neil album for a beginner to listen to?

    it has some really LONG jams but is pretty much true to the crazy horse of the 70's and 80's..

    Awesome. I'm well aware of Neil and CH's long jams. I like that you added it's true to the Crazy Horse of the 70s and 80s.

    I really need to listen to my dad's Neil albums that he has. I've only listened to "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere."

    RG is the reason I became a big neil fan in the first place. It rocket's along.. it's a good companion piece to the new album actually.

    Tuesday the 20th Neil is bringing the Horses to our barn here in Kitchener ON and I will be on the floor to cheer him on! Can't wait to hear that dirty guitar ringing in my ear the next morning :D

    Hard to believe he is playing the ACC in Toronto the night before (about 18,000 capacitiy) then coming to our beloved Memorial Auditorium (about 8,000 capacity) the next night. I am not complaining one bit, just strange to see the venues/ markets that he is playing on this current trek across our great country.

    Hey Hey My My
    The last PJ show I went to was the best PJ show ever, that is until they come around again of course

  • I got an early Christmas present last night. A ticket to see Neil Young in Sydney in March. I can't wait :D:D
