The Photo of the Moment is from this weekend's Bridge School Benefit Concert 2012.

At the end of the Saturday concert, all performers were invited onstage for the encore of "Rockin' in the Free World". At some point, (possibly because of Lukas Nelson's enthusiasm?) Neil Young handed is guitar over to Lukas Nelson to finish off the song.

Lukas Nelson (Willie's son) took to Neil's guitar with wild abandon -- at Neil's joyous encouragement -- to finish out the night with the ensemble musicians spread across the stage including Eddie Vedder, Wayne Coyne, Gary Clark Jr., Foster the People, members of Jack White band, Reggie Watts, Pegi Young and many more.

A dramatic conclusion to a special day of music.

All for a good cause. More on Bridge School Benefit Concert 2012.

  4. Neil Young is one of the reason why I paid my music tuition. I wanted to learn so bad because I want to be as awesome as he was.
