Neil Young
by Lkoutmama on 11/23/25Hayden Homes Amphitheater - BendRating: 5 out of 5I should start this off by saying i've been a neil young fan since buffalo springfield and this was my 75th Neil Young show, so this is probably not exactly objective. I was going to rate it a 10 out of 10 until seeing the concert two nights later at Shoreline, so this one I will have to give a seven. A solid mix of "greatest hits"and deep cuts. For me, the addition of two songs from Greendale was fabulous (Sun Green/Be the Rain) since they are barely played as standalone songs. And a wonderfully nice version of Cortez. Very solid band that backs him up in the Chrome Hearts. Spooner, who was injured on the tour and has been with neil since harvest days (and is a lovely person), along with Micah Nelson, Tato and Corey (all of Promise of the Real and all wonderful people) play like old souls - solid backing and they lift Neil up. All in all a great show. Even at 80 Neil's still got it!
