    Longest show in Pinnacle Bank Arena's admittedly short history.

    Can't say enough about last night. So much energy. If you've ever wondered if an aging mediocre band (RIP Rick) like Crazy Horse might be slowing a guy like Neil down a bit (I have), last night provided strong support for the affirmative. Crazy Horse has its place in Neil Young lore, but there is now something to be said for Neil with a younger, arguably tighter backing band. I have no idea if PotR can hold their own without Neil, but they certainly injected some octane into his songs. I'll go out on a limb as say that Down By The River and Love and Only Love were as hard as anything PJ has done live in recent years.

    Such a good show...

    Sounds like a great show- thanks for the update.

    I almost ended up skipping work to drive to Cincinnati tonight.
    I think if I would have checked this thread sooner, I probably would've.
    Sounds like Neil is at the top of his game!!!!

    So pumped for tonight! Who else will be there?

    My cousin, who is on business from Israel, will be with us, and it's his first Neil show, so that will be super exciting! I love going to shows with him when he's here, as not too many artists (sadly) play there. Brought him to PJ Brooklyn 2 in 2013, and we saw Springsteen in VA last year, so we do pretty pretty well when it comes to shows together :)

    We have lawn tickets, so hoping the weather gets better :prayer:

    What a terrific show last night in Detroit! Spotted a PJ Detroit shirt and a blue 10c shirt, plus a sweet Y1ELD license plate with a PJ sticker in the parking lot--was that anyone here?

    I love it when I'm looking forward to the opener just as much as the main act, which was the case last night. BoH were fantastic, per usual. I could not stop laughing after Ben was like "this one's a sensitive one about how I feel inside, yall" before going straight into No One's Gonna Love You :lol:

    But Neil. Neil F'in Young. He is as good as ever. I love how every time I see him, it's a completely different experience. I've seen him 3 times since 2011, and it's been solo acoustic, with Crazy Horse, and now with Promise of the Real. Who, by the way, seriously, seriously impressed me. They gelled together so seamlessly, and it looked like Neil was having a blast playing with them. I liked the format of Neil solo acoustic, then acoustic guitar with the band, then electric with the band. I think my highlight from last night was an amazing Cowgirl in the Sand.

    Hope everyone that went on here had as great of a time as I did!

    I'm guessing it was a curfew issue...
    They played right up to11pm!!!
    It was still a REALLY good show,
    but was kind of surprised to only get "Cinnamon Girl" as the encore!!
    There was also some severe weather moving in...
    we had just gotten back to the car and before we could leave the parking lot...
    it started raining!! :rock_on:
