Neil Young & Crazy Horse brought the Rusted Garage Tour to New Jersey’s Meadowlands, on a Saturday night in September of 1986. The tour harkened back to the Rust Never Sleeps tour of 1978 with the larger than life stage props as a backdrop to the Crazy Horse rock and roll musical experience. Neil has recently been working with the reconfigured Crazy Horse during the pandemic years with Nils Lofgren replacing Frank “Poncho” Sampedro after a freak accident caused him to retire from playing guitar with the band; original member Ralph Molina is still playing drums with Billy Talbot holding down the base in Young’s distortion friendly ensemble. One memorable moment for me was Neil Young & Crazy Horse playing “ “Walk Like a Giant” in Central Park for the Global Citizen concert at such a volume that reportedly the ground shook and windows rattled throughout Manhattan during rehearsals.
The last time I saw the band was two nights in Winnipeg in 20 below weather in February a couple of years ago; an incredible experience I will never forget.

Don’t Spook the Horse

Rock on!
