    I haven't seen NY w/POTR.

     I would love to see them one more time with Crazy Horse. But, like Brian pointed out(Boys are getting up ther in age),if it were to happen it needs to happen..........NOW, pretty much.

    Though, would that band called Pearl Jam, ever go out with him again?
    That would be great! Even just for a song or two.  I can see at least that much happening again.

    Will Harvest Moon ever get a re-issue on vinyl?

    This will fill a nice gap in my Neil collection.

    This is a terrific album to have on vinyl.  The original sounds great- no reason to expect anything less with the re-issue.  A fine album all the way through and "Natural Beauty" is a stunning closer.

    One of my all-time favorite music moments:  Poncho kicking Neil in the butt (4:45)!

    During the Hitchhiker promotion Neil said, "Some have noted after hearing this (Hitchhiker), that this recording may be a high water mark for me, hard to match, yet he we are 40 years later and the Visitor will arrive soon with his own ideas."

    Turns out ‘The Visitor’ is Neil’s new record with POTR and it’s out on December 1st :)



    The Visitor:
    01 Already Great
    02 Fly By Night Deal
    03 Almost Always
    04 Stand Tall
    05 Change of Heart
    06 Carnival
    07 Diggin’ a Hole
    08 Children of Destiny
    09 When Bad Got Good
    10 Forever

    Me, too. They played Mansfield locally last time, and at this point in my life, no band is worth the stress of getting out of that parking lot. If they do the same next year, I might just have to travel to see them.
    I SAW PEARL JAM

    Dan,

    you can head on down to NC and catch the show with me and Becca.

    he hasn't played here in almost 7 years excluding Farm Aid.

    we are overdue

    So... another new album from NY + Promise of the Real coming. Single out. I have to say I really wish Neil and Promise of the Real would part ways now. I enjoyed The Monsanto Years - it was kind of different and enjoyable. They were also excellent on that tour. However, at this point their sound is getting really stale and stilted IMO. I'm even starting to wonder if NY isn't holding those guys back at this point rather than giving them a step up like he did at first.
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    Couldn't disagree more... LOVE the new song, I think it's fucking badass... can't wait to hear the new album... really can't wait to hear it all live hopefully in 2018 with Promise of the Real, they are great

    Great! I envy you :)

    Listening to this song after the Hitchiker-release is jarring :)
