    Do "the chrome hearts" play the same setlist every night or do they let loose with the setlist like Promise of the Real did ?
    They’ve only played 2 shows (3 if you include Farm Aid) so you can’t really tell.

    Looks promising enough

    It’d be brutal if the only UK date is Glastonbury. 
    Announcement says UK and we already know about Glastonbury so hopefully that's not the only 1 despite the rumoured dates

    Last time he played Aberdeen, not sure if that was a distance thing or all that was available, think it was added late

    $250 for 15 songs? Yeah Neil and Gilmour can take flying leap. Sorry, I love his music, but Neil has just disappointed me too many times.

    Yep. I think was actually $278 after TM fees for the Cap shows. I have said this before, but the thing with Neil is that you just do not know what you are going to get. You could get a great show or a dud. More often it is a dud in my experience (8 times). That does not mean I do not appreciate his music. I love it. But he is one of those artists that does his own thing live.

    I actually really liked the Greendale tour. I’ve never seen a dud either, and have been lucky enough to see solo, Crazy Horse, and other Neil band incarnations. 

    Prices are going up, but same can be said for most artists of Neil’s generation, and younger groups too. A friend just paid $400 CAD for not great Paul Simon tickets. I don’t blame the artists if that’s what the market will tolerate, but does price some out of attendance.

    Does anyone know how tickets through NYA work? For the NYCH tour last year, I didn't even know about a NYCH tour until I read it here after tickets were already on sale. Ultimately with all the postponements it ended up not mattering. But I'd prefer to not have to pick through the leftovers this time around if I can help it.

    I believe last tour there was a presale through NYA, not well publicized but if you logged in you saw it. My recollection was that I went through NYA got a unique password to my log in, but then got the tickets via TM. I was able to get GA Toronto tickets through NYA. Good luck.

    Thanks @ST66483 - how was the GA experience for that? I sense it would vibe much more calm and spaced than PJ. Pre show GA line as bad?

    I was a member of NYA for the presale last year and it made no difference for the shows I had tickets for. I would have gotten the exact same tickets on the regular on sale. His prices are so high that casual fans will probably pass on the best seats. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Had GA, but the show was cancelled so I can’t comment @darwinstheory. Had tickets to that and Ohana so was disappointed to miss Neil twice.

    It was definitely disappointing. It took me YEARS to get my better half to give NY/NYCH a fair shake. By then, there wasn't much any touring. I was so excited to take her to a show last year...but, things are what they are.

    Maybe a tour where worse seats aren't the worst thing?

    Assuming tickets go on sale right when the announcement hits, what time do his announcements generally get posted?
