Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young toured America during the first part of 2002 and I managed to attend two shows at Madison Square Garden in February, and one at the Nassau Coliseum in April. Fast forward to 2023- David Crosby is no longer with us, Stephen Stills in enjoying semi-retirement, Graham Nash is still out there performing at primarily smaller, theatre sized venues, and Neil Young is about to embark on a west coast solo tour at the end of this month. On July 1st, I will fly to Los Angelos, head to the Hollywood Hills during Fourth of July weekend, and catch two of the four Young solo concerts at the Ford Theatre located near the Hollywood Bowl (with a baseball game at Angels Stadium thrown in for good measure). I struggled with the decision to go on this Neil adventure, or roll the dice and hope for a northeastern swing, but I decided to see all the stars as I walk along Hollywood Boulevard (thank you Ray Davies) in a little less than two weeks for what is advertised to be 80% rarely played tunes, with some familiar favorites thrown in. It’s been 3 1/2 years since Neil and the Promise of the Real played Indy, and 90 plus Young performances attended by me since 1978; the road has returned and goes on forever!
