    Here's a poster for four concerts Neil did in early 2014.
    I'd say the man walks the walk.

    Yes, excellent! And a superb poster as well.

    Just announced with Promise of Real and Band of Horses near Detroit July 14! Hell of a line up, but have to save some $ on shows, and both my bf and I have seen both NY and BoH multiple times. Might sit this one out and wait til both bands come play a theater again...but then again we might not be able to help ourselves and end up springing for some lawn seats!

    There's a Groupon for $20 lawn seats for the MI venue, may have to take that up!

    What is a presale code and what does it buy you? No, seriously, I honestly don't know what that means, haha!

    Picked up tickets for the Cincinnati show!!
    Couldn't miss this one...I finally get to see Uncle Neil...
    AND Band Of Horses, one of my top 5 bands, are opening for him!!!
    It would be GREAT to hear Ben sing a couple of songs with Neil...
    DEFINITELY A WIN-WIN!!!

    I'm also going to to the Camden show. Should be an interesting one. Im anticipating that we are going to get a lot of the new album and a few classics to please the crowd.

    I'm thinking about that Groupon too, although $25 now. I've been wanting to see BoH, and Neil would just be gravy. But I'm leaning toward stub hubbing closer to show date

    I have heard from here and there that Neil isn't really performing well anymore. That his vocals just don't sound good anymore (heard the same about Bob Dylan). Is this not true? I had heard the same being said kind of widely about Gordon Downie of the Tragically Hip, but then I saw them and it sounded great, so I don't know what to believe anymore. But it matters to me... because if Neil Young (or Bob Dylan for that matter) sound relatively bad now live, I'd rather not see them, because I don't want that kind of memory of them.... Any opinions from people who have seen NY in the past couple of years would be appreciated. :)

    I've seen Neil 6 times, in several different band settings, the most recent being last January when he was playing solo. His voice was amazing. I've seen lots of aging rock stars struggle on stage, but have never seen Neil struggle to hit a note. I agree that Neil's prices can be astronomical, but I've never felt like I didn't get my money's worth after a Neil Young concert.
