IF only it was that easy haha. I have never seen Steve Earl....don't think I have heard of him either. Have you seen Laura Marling? I saw her ...4 o 5 years ago in Toronto. I was blown away by the soul that tiny little girl had. I still think her blue series is my favourite. It doesn't hurt that she did a hell of a NY cover Not many people can take an incredible classic like that and do it justice, but she did...Alabama Woody wrote:NY, LM, Ireland !
No brainer
Steve Earl is opening in Nashville. I've seen him many times. Wish LM was opening here !
Tough decision for sure [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]
I say go but I'm an enabler

Re: Neil Young
I've never seen LM
Steve Earl is most famous fur a song called Copperhead Road, but he is much more than that one song. He's put out an LP almost every year. He's cool !
Enjoy the show

Ahh yeah! I do know that song.
I just found out that Dropkick Murphy's are playing in Cork, the city I live in, the day before the Neil and LM show..
Game changer...

Re: Neil Young
Neil was supposed to do one of his Treaties shows here in Edmonton but it got "Postponed" for no reason, that was like a year ago. I think it's likely cancelled forever and was due to poor ticket sales as most people here don't agree with his cause.
Anyways, I saw him in Calgary a couple of years ago on his original Treaties tour and it was fantastic, Only the old songs and only Neil. I also snagged a guitar pick and got him to sign a copy of Harvest!

Re: Neil Young
I saw him at the Toronto show on that same HTT tour. It was at Massey Hall...a pretty iconic venue in Toronto...the sound is incredible. That was hands down the best show I have ever seen.higherlimits wrote:Neil was supposed to do one of his Treaties shows here in Edmonton but it got "Postponed" for no reason, that was like a year ago.

I miss the days when it was just Neil and his old hits. Now it is the Nelson boys on tour with him and they are playing all their garbage from that album they put out together. haha
For the show in Calgary, did he have a bunch of acoustic guitars that he told stories about? Stephen Stills and Hank Williams and stuff..
Very cool about the pick and signing!! I have a couple picks from when I saw him with Crazy Horse. Are yours just plain gold?? No logo or anything?

Neil is playing Dublin 3 weeks after I leave Ireland. Laura Marling is opening.....
It will probably cost me about $600 to change my flight, get a ticket to the show and get a hotel in Dublin for the night.....do I stay an extra 3 weeks to see my favourite artist in Ireland?
...yes? Right? Right! I need some of you other crazy people to talk me into this..because I am poor and think I am crazy for doing such a thing... I am paying for my apartment until the 3rd of June anyways and can live with friends for a few days until the show..
I'm seeing him this Thursday in Nashville, I can report back and let you know what he's playing, etc.
How was the show??? The setlist looks REALLY good. They even played Down by the River... He never seems to play it when I see him!

Started out just Neil and a guitar,piano, and organ with harmonica - five or six songs then the band joined him. The band is real good. Yep he did DBTR. It was really good. Several jams mixed in.
Played over two hours and did a Merle Haggard song.
He and these young guys in the band were jelling really well. Cool to see him perform just as good if not better now than ever !

When I went to farm aid two years ago, I saw Neil and the Nelson boys perform together. It was apparently their first time ever performing together and is what inspired their first album. I thought it was alright. They are good. Willie also came out to perform with them. It was neat to see so much talent together. I've also seen Neil with crazy horse but in my opinion, there is nothing better than just solo Neil.
When I saw him solo at Massey Hall a few years ago he did some Phil Ochs covers and a couple other songs that ended up on the Letter Home album. It was great. Looking over the set lists as of recent, it's nice to see they are doing a lot more of Neil's older tunes. They used to play a lot of their new songs off the Monsanto Years album.
I wish I had been able to see Neil perform with Stephen Stills. Could still happen...but doubtful..

Re: Neil Young
why would you think that? Because Stills is basically deaf now? Neil will (probably) never play with Crosby again. But I think, as long as Stills is willing to get onstage, the possibility exists. In fact Neil was on the bill at Stills' Light Up The Blues benefit 3 weeks ago.arewhyehen wrote:I wish I had been able to see Neil perform with Stephen Stills. Could still happen...but doubtful..
I saw Neil last Fall with this band and it was excellent - some acoustic; some rock; some old; some new; some theatrics; some politics and some weird WTF has Neil lost his mind. just exactly perfect Neil.
btw, I say skip Dublin and plan a trip to SF in October for the Bridge School Benefit. It should be on every Neil fan list.

Re: Neil Young
I really hope that Crosby and Neil rekindle that friendship. I would have loved to have seen CSNY. I think Buffalo Springfield played a one off show a few years back, which would have been a chance to see Stills and Neil together, but they are always one off shows that I need to travel a great distance for. That is why I think if Stephen and Neil did anything, I would probably need to go to California...G-squared wrote:why would you think that? Because Stills is basically deaf now?

I did Farm Aid a few years ago. Bridge School is on my bucket list. That is going to take a lot more money and traveling, so it will need to wait a bit longer. Hopefully in the next few years I can make it down, now that I have this travel fever..
I think Dublin is probably going to happen just because I am here and paying for a place to live right up to the show anyways. Unless something gets in the way between then and now, i will probably go see Neil in Dublin. With the new album coming out, hopefully we get a few Canadian shows this year when they get back from Europe...

Re: Neil Young
I prefer solo Neil as well !
First time I saw him was in the 90's at the Opry House, just him and a stage full of instruments.
I saw the Lenoise Tour at The Ryman where it was just Neil and electric guitars. Great !
I saw him with Crazy Horse at Red Rocks. Very Good !
I saw him Thursday at an amphitheater in down town Nashville with his new band. Loved it !
His new album, Earth, is supposed to be full of sounds from the outdoors.
Should be interesting
