"Rusties are Insane": An Eyewitness report from Winnipeg

Regular readers know how much this site is dedicated to the post-show review euphoria. The kind of review that makes you feel like you were almost there.

Well our good buddy up in Manitoba Bill Laing (who we've feautured before as a passionate Neil fan) has come through with a wonderful experience.

Bill was interviewed by the CBC shortly after the show and we think this pretty well captures the natural high we all feel from a great Neil concert.

Have a listen.

Thanks Bill!

then. Neil really wowed his hometown last night. I assure that everyone in the MTS centre was more than happy to see Neil put on such a spectacular performance.

Enjoy your site,

Regards,

Good work Bill and I concur with your views on finding neil so long ago - so unique.

Long live Neil and the rustList
