Uncle Neil's Coastal Tour
I haven't seen this discussed here, so apologies if it has already been covered. Neil Young is doing a tour of venues up and down the west coast, and he has said he'll be playing songs he hasn't played often live. So far, he has opened every show with "I'm the Ocean," and he has played either "Song X" or "Throw Your Hatred Down" (including both of them once) at every show but one.
Obscurities are in the eye of the beholder. As a person whose favorite bands are Pearl Jam and Wilco, I feel like he's playing the hits. (In addition to the Mirror Ball songs, he's playing Buffalo Springfield's "Burned," which Wilco covered a long time ago.)
Anyway, I'm seeing him tomorrow night at the Greek in L.A. and will say hello from everyone.

The sets are substantially the same, but I'd love to hear I'm the Ocean, again.
I enjoyed the intimate nature of this show (esp from my 3rd rw spot). Watching the organic expression of the music flowing through Neil's entire being - it doesn't get more authentic than that. I was glad I did not miss this.
