from the beginning notes of "when you dance i can really love" and then the opening riffs of " Hey Hey , My My ( into the black)".....we knew we were gonna get a concert of a lifetime in saint john from legend Neil Young and his Band..which consisted of Ben Keith, Chad Cromwell, Rick Rosas, Anthony Crawford and neil's wife Pegi singing backing vocals. Song after song we were treated to superbly performed classics , old gems and some new tracks from his latest album called " fork in the road". I must say the new tracks fitted right in with the older material....
starting the concert with an electric set , neil slowed things down in the middle with an acoustic
break....which included the well known classics....sung by the crowd as well...the needle and the damage done and heart of gold....then it was back to full power for the remaining of the show which was warmly appreciated by the crowd ....but the finale of "Rockin' in the free world" sent the crowd into a frenzy with a great light show to end things in style.....neil proved again that he still had that musical drive in him throughout the show....a first class concert by a legend who can still rock out with the best of them. 4 / 4 stars
