FULL VIDEO: Neil Young & Crazy Horse Set from Global Citizen Festival, September 29, 2012
Here's the full video of Neil Young with Crazy Horse at Global Citizen Festival, September 29, 2012 on YouTube.
A comment by Kimball who left a new comment on Photo of the Moment: Dave Grohl & Neil Young & Crazy Horse":
Neil said: "We're joinin' forces for you up here."Thanks Kimball! Loved that full circle observation.
I loved at the beginning of RITFW how Neil walked up to his wedge (guitar pedal system) and started to weave up an effect loop like he was throwing a pizza crust in the air or making some kind of rock and roll cacoon or something. It sounded awesome, then when Grohl brought in some heavily distorted power guitar riffs as the song spooled up to speed, man that was the most powerful start to that song I've ever heard. Unbeleiveable, I hope they put the full resolution video on youtube.
There was generally a good vibe on stage during the song with all the people up there singing and playing. I know that Neil was giving it his all, and I know that he felt the load of all those people wanting their socks knocked off. I think he did a great job leading the mob through the song.
I don't know if Neil has ever jammed with Grohl before, but I can say that I was getting some pretty heavy feelings back to Change Your Mind and Kurt Cobain and Nirvana. I think both Neil and Grohl were experiencing one of those rare connections through time back to where major waves changed them forever. Full circle type stuff. Anyway, I thought the Neil and Crazy Horse performance was top notch.
