Oh wait

Guess his ranch needs a new wing

wait, what now?

he's just shilling for amazon's move into hi-res streaming

Pono 2.0?

I bet big Bezos had to call Neil personally for this to happen. Imagine the fawning

Guess his ranch needs a new wing

it burned down in the wildfires

i think his place in malibu burned down — iirc he lost the ranch in the divorce.

who knows if it'll happen, but neil is saying crazy horse is going to tour in 2020.

So how is Poncho doing? Is he retired?

Seems to be fine, just didn’t want to crank the whole thing up again. Lucky that Lofgren is around and willing — I dont think there could be any other replacement.

Well, no one with Crazy Horse history, at least.

Poncho: “I'm 70 and I'm retired now and want to stay home,” Sampedro recently told Uncut.

I still think that The Visitor is better than Peace Trail.
Am now almost through my first Colorado listen and I'm really digging it.
So it seems that I'm not in line at all on recent NY with, as it seems, everybody else posting here...

more "lost" Neil on the way!!! https://thequietus.com/articles/27497-neil-young-homegrown-1975-first-release

hell yes

if this schedule keeps up, by my calculations we should finally hear toast in 2061

"Toast is done" apparently https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/beyond-hitchhiker-15-archival-neil-young-albums-wed-like-to-hear-120523/toast-2001-121371/

you’ll forgive my skepticism

some chatter on this in one of the other neil threads:

NEIL YOUNG ARCHIVES BOX: IT'S REALLY HAPPENING

Fifty-four years after illegally crossing the U.S. border in a Pontiac hearse, Neil Young has become an American citizen.

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/54-years-after-moving-to-america-neil-young-is-now-a-u-s-citizen-942035/

not the time i would've picked but congratulations Neil

Congrats Neil!

So it's looking increasingly like Homegrown will definitely come out in 2020.

pre-loaded in a repro LincVolt—just $239/mo over 19 years!

No better time than an election year.

bye Neil </3

think he's got dual citizenship, don't fret, canucks!

At least now it makes sense (retroactively) that he was part of the "American Masters" PBS series.

Great... and another American guitar player/electric car designer likely loses their job due to uncontrolled Pontiac hearse-based immigration :’(

sorry Shakey, I draw the line at your assertion that "even Richard Nixon has got soul"

Neil's going to be doing some "Fireside Sessions" with Darryl filming on NYA...also for some reason I can't C&P from that site but the Hearse Theater schedule is pretty cool including Journey Through the Past on March 21 & 22, March 19 "Leave the Driving" from Return to Greendale and "Dead Man Session" (dir. Jarmusch)

also March 29 - Big Island Transmission (?) - tyler?

Big Island Transmission is like a half-hour of Neil + Friends rehearsing in Hawaii in 2000. I think Neil wears a backwards baseball cap and shorts for the duration.

sounds v v chill

Neil's going to be doing some "Fireside Sessions" with Darryl filming on NYA

a good opportunity to revisit my favorite song with fire crackle noises, 'will to love'

a hearse theater thing yesterday was a killer "crime in the city" video from the Weld tour — Neil says he's planning on putting out the entire Buffalo 91 show (with less crowd reaction shots than on the Weld video apparently, haha). once again, it'd be great if neil just hunkered down and focused — he's got the makings of an incredible Ragged Glory/Weld/Arc boxed set:

- Ragged Glory Rehearsals / Ragged Glory II outtakes
- Rust Bucket Santa Cruz Show
- Buffalo Show

More Arc please

cosign

and def title it More Arc

I don't understand why he doesn't just ... release this shit. What is there to work on, really?

optimize for PONO

Isn't the Weld VHS mix supposed to be better than the album? Like it is the actual Briggs mix? Or something, I mean it is Neil of course the VHS mix of a live concert is the best vers of it

Sometimes, as a fan of bootlegs, I get so used to something one way that just hearing a different mix is enough to make me think it is better, or at least preferable. There's a Cure boot I've longed loved, for example, that I greatly prefer to the officially released live album, just because for whatever reason it draws my ears to aspects I like more. Which is to say I can totally imagine a mix for VHS besting the official album

lol i think it's the laser disc that has the briggs mix.

hahaha of course

Laserdisc! The ultimate format!

I almost weeped reading how Weld was mixed.

(In "Shakey" of course)

this is so good

yeah that fireside session was very nice ... first "little wing" since 1977! On piano!
he should do that every night.

these are giving me some serious feels tbh

acoustic Love and Only Love!
