"Rusties are Insane": An Eyewitness report from Winnipeg

winnipeg-10-16-08-neil-young-laing.jpg


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!

    I was at the show last night and it was fantastic. I've seen Neil once before in the early nineties and I was amazed to hear that he sounded as good yesterday as he did
    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,

    Great to hear the passion in your review. To get Cortez and Cowgirl in one show is my hope for when he comes to Sydney in January 09. And if I get Down By The River as well then thats heaven.

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

    Long live Neil and the rustList

    Fantastic interview Bill. Your coherent thoughts described your early Neil reactions so well. You helped the non-Rustie audience understand why so many are so passionate about Neil.
