NEW DATES: Neil Young & "Crazy Flyers" + Fresno & Bakersfield
New dates have been added for Neil Young & "Crazy Flyers" in Fresno on May 3 and Bakersfield on May 5 & 6.
With the big news that Neil Young & Crazy Horse will perform two concerts in Fresno, CA in May and Nils Lofgren confirming the gig, see Neil Young Archives for details.
Bakersfield May 5/6, pre-sale now: pw: nyarchives
Is the band "Horse of a Different Color", per Neil? Or "Santa Monica Horses"? Or "Crazy Flyers"?
It's all one band as rustie fans from around the world are planning trips to experience these unprecedented "raw, open rehearsal" sessions.
Also, see Neil Young & Crazy Horse will perform two concerts in Fresno, CA in May.

Doh! I just pulled the trigger on 5/1 in Fresno on Wednesday night. Excited to go, but Bakersfield on a Saturday would have been way easier on the schedule. Well, happy that more people get to see these shows.
ReplyDeletegoing Thurs 5/3. at least by then Ill be guaranteed that the band rehearsed the 2 previous shows :) 2nd row balcony center is good enough for me
ReplyDeleteI have a bad feeling this is Crazy Horse's last ride. Still hoping they can make it to the East coast before they are done. It's hard to believe it has been 15 years since my last show (9/13/03 in Atlantic City). If it has to be my last, it was a wonderful performance of them at their best.
ReplyDeleteYou are lucky in the states, hope they make it to Europe.
ReplyDeleteEddy
The Crazy Trans Band
ReplyDeleteI really want them to make it to Australia too!
ReplyDeleteOne unintended circumstance of the Big Divorce that has happened: warm-up gigs with The Horse now take place in Fresno and Bakersfield instead of Santa Cruz and Half Moon Bay. Can't say that I'm too thrilled about this turn of events, but that's life.
ReplyDeleteAny chance Neil brings the boys up here to the Bay Area??? Pretty please???
Right...you're what, 3.5 hours drive away? Spare a thought for the Down Under fans...
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that this is a mini-promotion tour for the new "Live at the Roxy".In other Words the "Tonights the night" album performed live some 30 years later! What a threat if that's the case! Sitting in Europe and "kinda wonda" I hope there will be shot an official Live-DVD of the event.
ReplyDeleteThat would be over 40 years later....but you can’t have the Flyers without Ben Keith.
ReplyDeleteAny news about Poncho? Is he gonna be there or it is Nils replacing him?
ReplyDeletegood point Dom. stop yer bitching Richie. lol
ReplyDeleteHa, I'll cut down on my whining. You got to understand though, I've actually walked home after a Neil Young show. A guy can get spoiled living that way!
ReplyDeleteOh piss off, now you’re just rubbing it in.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Dominic Here! You Should be ashamed arguing Wether your About too witness a re-performance of "Tonights the night""The :Change your mind"album or "Mirrorball 30th anniversery" W. Or without Eddie Vedder...your lucky a-holes just to See the Horse "One last time around"!
ReplyDeleteHey, living in Santa Cruz ain't easy, or cheap, trust me. I've been scrounging paycheck to paycheck for over 20 years, and I've had to skip Neil shows cuz I didn't have the funds. The increasingly higher rents are probably gonna drive me out of here.
ReplyDeleteBut then again, I've also had a conversation with Neil once, also saw him and Pegi at a supermarket another time. So I got that going for me.....
With Nils in the lineup, what are the chances of Vocoders & tunes from Trans album, aka Transformer Man? I thin it would be great.
ReplyDeleteRichard Siciliano, I love what Neil's doing here - forcing fans to have skin in the game ... the combo of CH, tiny venues, great seats ... to me its a can't miss set-up ... as time ticks away this all gets more precious and urgent ... that's why I'm throwing caution to the wind and jumping on a plane
