Back in 2010, MusiCares Honored Neil Young with a tribute which included Elvis Costello, Crosby Stills & Nash, Sheryl Crow, Josh Groban, Ben Harper, Elton John, Norah Jones, Lady Antebellum, Dave Matthews, James Taylor, Keith Urban, and many others.

Not the least of which was Tony Bennett, who Neil cited as an inspiration that night.

To say it was an amazing night, would be a vast understatement.

"Live Music Is Better": Cowboy Junkies @ The Birchmere — 4/10/22

As you know, last year, we had a rather life changing event occur where we can truly say that "The Music Saved Our Lives" -- both seriously and literally.

And -- as we discussed throughout 2020 & 2021 ... everybody knows "Live Music Is Better", of course. (Or, another example, "Live Music Is Better" - Mid-Summer 2021 Edition #2 or  -- most recently -- "Live Music Is Better": Son Volt @ The Birchmere — 3/2/22.)

Last night ( 4/10/22), we caught  Cowboy Junkies at The Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia and it was fab.  Fab not just because we  were simply enjoying live music with our friends but because we got something we always consider  treat ... a Neil Young cover. 

Cowboy Junkies covered Neil Young's "Don't Let It Bring You Down" off their latest album of covers "Songs of the Recollection". (Album also includes cover of Neil's "Love In Mind", also.  More details here.) Lead singer Margo Timmins introduced the previous cover by Gordon Lightfoot as the "King of Canadian Folk Music".  The intro for Neil's DLIBYD was in a similar laudatory vein for the Canadian singer songwriter.

So we're just glad, fortunate and blessed to be able to go a few miles down the road to a splendid music venue that respects both the artists and the audiences  and enjoy live music with our dear friends.

So let the music continue to flow unrestricted and freely to all across the lands in the summer of 2022!!!

After all, isn't it all about the "Ordinary People of RUST"?

More on our efforts to keep the live music flowing by supporting concerts @   Yes, Everybody Knows "Live Music Is Better" - Spring  2021 Edition and again in our Early Summer 2021 Edition & Mid-Summer 2021 Edition, "Live Music Is Better" - Mid-Summer 2021 Edition #2 or  -- most recently -- "Live Music Is Better": Son Volt @ The Birchmere — 3/2/22.)
