Neil Young 2020

Saw him in 2009 and it was epic. So good. Then saw him with the Promise of the Real at Leeds in 2017 (I think) and that was even better. He still has it in spades and would smash the pymild.

(In my humble opinion ........?)

Like A Hurricane still left on the subs bench

He has played it a few times this year, in what is a constantly changing setlist, eg:

 

I'd be made up with a headline slot next year. '09 was possibly my favourite of all time, and this time around I reckon some of my gang might actually join me :lol:.

Seeing him in Hyde Park tomorrow, where for he's kinda subbing Dylan. A shame it's Hyde Park, but still very exciting.

He is on fire this tour. Loving the changing setlists and the gems he is dropping. Gutted to not be going to any of the upcoming shows.

I'm heading to Krakow for a stag do, absolutely gutted it had to be this weekend. 

Have an amazing time! 

I've just come back from a long weekend in Krakow funnily enough! Try get some time in Kazamierz during the day/early evening if you can. Amazing place, maybe not the best for a stag do though! 

Thanks a lot, I hope you have a ball in Poland!

Very excited for tomorrow. Hope some of you will be there too.

Also going. Hope to see you there.

I'm not aware of anyone else I know attending. Even big Dylan & Young fans. Felt like half of the regular gig goers in my town were there for Roger Waters last year.

I hope not! How boring can you possibly get for a headliner.

Surely anyone under the age of 50 is not going to be up for this!

Took my twenty something daughter on Friday night to Hyde Park. She wasn't complaining. My son and daughter-in-law who live in Canada would also have loved to be there. Saw him in 2009 and would go down a storm next year. Talked to someone linked to the festival on one of my pre-festival shifts who thought there would be a concentration of heritage acts next year for the 50th, and explaining that they held back on the line up this year to carry extra money over for next year.

If there are loads of old, boring crooners performing next year I might have to sack it off.

Don't you hate the people who edit Setlist FM to say "Neil Young cover" because he happens to be playing with PoTR on this tour? Dicks.

But the concert artist is Neil Young + POTR and they are playing a song from a Neil Young album. That's how you're supposed to categorise it. :D

Me and my group of mates (22 and 23 years old) were there for Neil at Hype Park and fucking loved it. It was glorious. Shakey has more charisma and talent that 90% of recent Pyramid headliners. Not to mention a much better discography.

    • well, we might know by the end of next month if they drop the lineup early again
    • I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over. 
    • Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.
    • Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.
    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
