OK,
So maybe its a Canadian thing, and admittedly the theory was formed after a lot of h*sh in a dorm room, but about 20 years ago, my buddy and I came to the rock and roll conclusion that Neil Young is "God".
I'm expecting to have another religious experience at Massey Hall in Toronto tomorrow night. 10th row centre floors at the greatest venue in Canada!
Neil is 65 years old and has survived a brain injury to return as powerful as ever.
When he starts tearing thru riffs it is unlike anything else in Rock and Roll today. His guitar fills the room and tears right thru you.
I've seen a lot of aging rock icons in the last few years and no one has the kind of commitment that Neil still has.
He is one of those love him or hate him artists. 99% of women say he is ugly and they hate his music. 75% of guys I know say he sucks. Its that last 25% of true music lovers who recognize the musical genius who come to see Neil and experience the master at his craft.
Come tomorrow night, I plan to light one up, loosen up my air guitar limbs, stretch my neck and get ready for ecstasy!
