Two changes from Sweden: Opened with Heart of Gold, then the same set apart from Cortez replacing RITFW. Cortez had the lost verse. Rainy evening.
Where is Woody ?
Out of respect for indigenous values and the desire of many natives not to see their representation to be used as mascots or tobacco selling figures Woody has been retired for good. It was about time.
one of the most amazing things within the Archives III Blu-ray releases are the Boarding House shows from May of 1978
the songs Neil was unveiling combined with the two wooden Indians accompanying him onstage created - and still does - an aura that defies description
and on Page 40 from the Volume III book, there's Neil staring at Woody while holding his 12-string guitar
so I guess Neil & his team weren't woke enough to remove Woody & his glorious sidekick from Volume III - but now he's gone from the stage after 40+ years
all it took were race riots throughout America in 2020 & shazaam!
virtue signaling is sad...
there may have been three Indians onstage - I'd have to go back & watch...
a nice bong hit & then Shots from '78 - sounds like a plan for a lazy Sunday afternoon
or maybe Living With War
😉
A while back I was interviewing native trappers in the Canadian north about their lives and what they were doing for a living by trapping. They answered me with a question: "How's Greenpeace doing?" I stood ashamed because a few years before I believed those Greenpeace activists to be real heros. It didn't matter then at the time of these interviews that Greenpeace and other serious environmental organzisations had taken a more differentiated position, those Cree and Dene didn't know better and the effect of these anti-fur-trade campaigns continues to this day. It's a big difference if you are making fun of Germans or Italians or Dutch who can defend themselves against being ridiculed or if you belong to a tiny society with limited outreach and bandwidth. So this is not Neil Young's virtue signaling (what a discriminatory phrase!) but how about: the result of a learning process, the effect of intercultural experience, the acknowledgement of societal process? By the way do you still beat your wife and children? (no specific living person being addressed here, but to illustrate the logic)
And that does not mean that The Boarding House documentation including the videos aren't great, but that was then and here we are now.
@Dionys: thank you for your wisdom and your instructive observations. Much appreciated.
Peace 🙏
