    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

    I'm so excited for tomorrow night to finally see Neil and The Horse. I never thought I'd get to see him let alone with Crazy Horse and in my hometown. Gonna be an awesome night!

    Holy crap, the NY & CH show last night was insanely good! Fuckin' Up stole the show, while songs like Walk Like a Giant, Born in Ontario and Hey, Hey, My, My simply blew me away. The set just flew by!

    Great show last night, I really wanted to hear Cortez The Killer. Hopefully they play it in Ottawa.

    I thought the crowd was pathetic!!! Everyone was sitting the entire show, the seniors behind us tapped me and my buddy on the shoulder during the first song and asked us to sit down because they couldn't see. Large amounts of people left early and even more were walking out during the encore. The floor was dead too, the worst crowd at any concert I've been to by far!!! Anyone know what the Toronto crowd was like?

    They are old farts who just want to hear Heart of Gold and Harvest. Very few people realize that Neil Young has made any new music since 1972. Most can't get over that he "left" CSNY (umm it was like just a one album thing, get over it). It's really sad.

    Damn!! Was really really hoping to get it in Kitchener. The Kitchener show was awesome and I was totally blown away but yes the crowd sucked! I was the only one in my section standing the entire show and actually singing along with the new stuff. Can't believe how out of touch most people are... its sad.

    I'm glad I went to the Ottawa show as well, it was so much better then Kitchener. They jammed forever on Fuckin Up, it was fantastic!!

    Looking forward to the Borgata show, tickets were actually reasonable for a change with Neil. But judging from all the reviews on this tour; sounds like he might be one of the only older acts that is worth it.
