    Man, feeling a sting of anxiety today:

    Should have seen him at least once more this tour. 

    Promise of the Real has really opened everything up, it's loose - it's surprising - anything can be played.

    If he goes out with Crazy Horse next time, or someone else I bet the setlists will be more rigid and more boring.
    I don't like this idea at all. For some idiotic reason, I haven't given POTR a fair shake at all. I have viewed them as "NCH (or Not Crazy Horse)." 

    Recently, I've been more into Neil Yound than I have been for 15-20 years probably. I don't know why. Been having some of his live tracks pop up from time to time and SiriusXM has been throwing him on more often. 

    Historically, I love a lot of NY stuff, don't know a bunch more, and some of it is weird or boring to me.

    Anyhow, I've been waiting for years to see NY & CH again. It has been WAAAAYYY too long since I saw them at the most memorable concert I have ever attended. I need to see them again and they need to be their bad ass selves. 

    What would you folks recommend I listen to to open my eyes to his work with POTR? They deserve a more fair shot.
    Paradox Album is fantastic.
    Earth Album I have had on high rotation.
    The appearances at farmaid the last several years I think have been just stellar.
    Maybe this peace Trail video will do it for you good luck I love it.

    Neil, still making magic with Old Back.  It just doesn't get any better.

    The video quality is really bad/low rez on my end and the audio doesnt sync up to the video. 

    Anyone else having the same quality?

    would have prefered a stream through youtube

    Listens to it instead of watching. Works. 

    Everybody knows this is nowhere now.

    The chosen angles suck too. Kind of boring watching. Not that dynamic and a lot of profile shots or shots of Neils back. 

    Someone call Danny clinch

    Everytime they cut to the drummer it feels like it is filmed in the 70s though which I enjoy

    I forgot this was on Today. I just tuned in at Fuckin' Up.

    I agree with the camera from behind is not that great and it's out of synch. But, it is better then nothing.

    75% of Human Hughway they stayed on one weird wide shot with Neil furthest from the camera. Like they forgot to cut. 

    Its also runs like 10 frames per second for me. 

    Haha. But still great.

    Neil is really on fire at the moment. Looking forward to hearing what he's cooked up on this new album with the Horse.

    Seeing Neil and Bob share the stage for a song was an amazing piece of music history. 
    And the weather was scorching for Ireland. I felt like I was back at a summer concert in New York. That atmosphere in Kilkenny was a huge party. Neil rocked it as usual. His opener this tour has usually been Mansion on the Hill and then last night he busts out Like an Inca. He fails to disappoint.
