No Upcoming Concerts
We're sorry, but we couldn't find any upcoming concerts for Neil Young & Crazy Horse. Please check back soon.
NEIL YOUNG AND CRAZY HORSE IN CONCERT:
Legendary singer-songwriter Neil Young continues to thrill fans with perennial outings alongside his collaborative band Crazy Horse. Whether they're bringing down the house at Carnegie Hall or sharing the stage with luminaries like Diana Krall, the band always puts on a stellar, wide-ranging show that keeps fans on their toes. Playing marathon sets that include classics like "Old Man" and "Heart of Gold" alongside creative covers of fellow giants like Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan, the band's unparalleled musicianship and Young's familiar voice are sure to bring back plenty of memories.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Since the late '60s, Neil Young and Crazy Horse have released more than 10 albums, exploring such diverse genres as country-folk, pop, and psychedelic rock. The band is best known, however, for Neil Young's iconic folk rock songwriting, popularized by hugely successful songs like "Cinammon Girl." Never content to rest on their laurels, Young and company have remained musically prolific and sonically experimental, earning rave reviews for their 2012 double-LP release Psychedelic Pill.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
“Neil Young and Crazy Horse play like the rock and roll legends that they are. Truly a great show reminiscent of the classics from the early days.”
“They weren't going through the motions, they were making them. Improvising, jamming, messing up, laughing, only in the way Neil and the Horse can. They were so tightly tuned in to one another and sounded great, but the best part was that they seemed happy to be there, happy to perform.”
“Neil is a genius! After all these years, he still rocks and puts on a great show!”
It was good to finally see Neil Young live. He played a good long set. I think it was a bit big of a venue for this type of show though.
Not performing old man or rocking in the free world are crimes against music lovers, this wasn’t acceptable, play them early while your band members are still awake. Get younger, or at least one younger musician to help you out. The opening band was horrendous, TO has so much talent, a street performance would have been better. The venue: so disappointed in the Amex lounge and their new plus one policy, if I buy 4 tics with my Amex, I want to bring in 4 guest. Other than that the venue is still my favourite in the city!!! And I look forward to coming back three more times this season!!!
Doors opened late due to bad weather warning. Besides that, show was amazing…keep on rock n in the free world!
Neil wanted us to experience the old concert vibe and save energy by not using the screens. I find this very disingenuous/disrespectful to the grass fans. To save energy cancel Rev. Billy and give us a screen! He travels better than he did in 1960. We deserve the use of new technology just like he does. Other than that GREAT concert.
TV screens did not work and the speakers for the lawns were also off.was not happy !
Incredible performance, but getting in and out of the venue really needs better logistics - there were no transit options in or out of the venue & getting 16,000 people into a massive space like that shouldn’t be as difficult as it was.
78 years old I’m still has a great voice! Two hours of rock and get out on stage with some of it with his band and some of it a cappella. Was really hoping to hear some of his hits such as southern man, rocking in the free world, old man, The needle and the damage done, harvest moon. Only played three or four of older hits, and the rest was newer stuff that I don’t really know.
Neil and Crazy Horse rocked the night away. A joy to watch! Was an amazing night ! Thank you
Spectacular performance by Neil Young and Crazy Horse! The severe weather warning in Toronto didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits! Fantastic night!
Neil's set list was perfect. He played nearly all the tunes I had hoped he would, and just when I thought there would be no acoustic guitar and harmonica, he treated us to a few gems. He is as relevant today as he ever was. It was really great to witness not just my generation enjoying the concert, but lots of younger fans rocking out too, and singing along. The venue is fantastic, and the staff handled the extreme weather alert really well. Thank the weather gods for clearing the threat from Toronto skies and allowing the show to go on!
