This Minneapolis show was unbelievably rich...The amount of NY styles covered was amazing and he had an extremely versatile band composed of one stray gator, one blue note and the Crazy Horse drummer. Could you get one shot of Neil that was more varied and true? This is as close as it gets to an all encompassing live experience of Neil as an artist at work. He expresses such deep dedication to getting the music moving through him. The vocal work during the acoustic set was masterful and had wonderful moments of subtlety. The detail of care, expression and intimacy shocked me, having never seen Neil live in an acoustic setting before. Ambulance blues, No One Seems to Know, Sad Movies and Harvest especially got to me...

On the electric side it was pure mastery of guitar, oh how good the Loner and Everyone Knows this is Nowhere sounded. Didn't expect this as a rarely listen to that album, Loved the new material, Believer and No Hidden Path especially! Thats what I've been listening to at home. Never ever ever expected to here Neil play Winterlong live, so I'm glad I did. Finally, the band and guitar work on Like a Hurricane sounded so fresh and new. Sometimes its hard to hearing a old song like that that you've heard a lot before with fresh ears, not this time..it sounded brand new! Oh, if had only played one more song to help us come down from such a high. What an ending!

    I am sorry to do this here, but I am trying to sell tickets to two Boston shows and one Connecticut show. I only want what I paid for them. I would go but I will be traveling for work and will miss the shows.

    I only want to sell the tickets to fellow die-hard Neil fans. Can someone either tell me if they are interested, or tell me a more proper place to post this message?

    Thanks.
