In the week that the musical legend that is Neil Young turns 69, in his 50th year as a touring artist, the folks who run the popular quarterly Retrospectacular night have decided to branch out and organise a special show to celebrate the music of their favourite rock icon.
You're Only Young Once is an event taking place at The Windmill in Brixton, London on Saturday November 15th 2014, where YOU can sign up to be Neil Young on stage, performing vocals with a live band. In addition to this live karaoke set, ex-members of the critically acclaimed 4 or 5 Magicians and Stagecoach have formed their very own Crazy Horse style tribute act "Bastards Of Young" (named after the famous Replacements anthem), who will be performing a 90 minute set encompassing 18 vintage Shakey tunes from 10 different records. We also have three of the very best London based Americana acts around performing split sets of their own songs and Neil classics - Dead Flowers, Lowpines and Uncle Luc.
Tickets are available from musicglue.com/retrospectacular for just £6 + £1 booking fee. Email joinmyfreakinband[at]hotmail[dot]co[dot]uk for more information and to sign up to sing a song!
