I am so new here but I am a very big fan of Neil Young and any info you can give me ASAP would be great. Like anywhere you go, New School, or meet new people. Well, that is how I feel here. So, as a die hard Neil Young Fan. I would like to be kept updated on this concert. I cant miss this one. I live in LINY but i will travel to the moon to see him. And also, I have been a fan of his since I was 11, yes, i love Rock and Roll then, and i still haven't changed, and my ultimate singer has always been Neil Young. Thanks, Tia

I can't believe it's been 32 years since I saw Neil Young on the "Time Fades Away" Tour in St. Pete.(I was just 15) I live in Jacksonville but will gladly drive to Nashville to see him. He's a living legend. Any info on tickets to his August shows will be very much appreciated. Peace and Love, TerryDavid

As I understand, Neil has rented a rehearsal hall for the week preceeding the Ryman shows.They are keeping a tight lid on this one and I've been trying to get information for the past 3 weeks, without success.

Guilt got the best of him when a second child from pegi also has celebral Palsy, and Carrie Snodgrass has zeke and his is mild. That is the reason i really gotten to him. there is notihing more sexier that a man who really love his kids and who "taking care of the invoroment" is so important. He can look at situation, like one he done a guy came up to the kid who wanted to shake his hands and the the security became abusive when he saw it. I mean i dont blame the security because he could have a gun, knife etc. but it was the way he treated a fan of Neil. The fact the his concentration is to have a better world for his kids, and one day their kids.
peace, Tia
