À propos de cet audio
Neil Young, at 79, is proving there is no pause on reinvention or bold commentary. Over the past few days, he has dominated music headlines and social feeds thanks to a blend of personal milestones, tour spectacle, and a move that’s vintage Neil. On August 15 in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Neil Young reunited with his original Squires Gretsch 6120 guitar for the first time in 60 years, debuting a new song titled Silver Eagle during the show. According to Relix, it was a mid-set surprise during the Blossom Music Center stop of his ongoing Love Earth Tour with his new band The Chrome Hearts, which features the likes of Micah Nelson and Spooner Oldham. The setlist was a powerful roll through old favorites, including Mr. Soul, revived for the first time since 2023, and Tumbleweed, not played since 2024. The band’s chemistry, a new backing group after years with Crazy Horse, is notable and adds another layer to Young’s already dense career tapestry. Two days later, in Toronto’s Budweiser Stage, Young made headlines again by resurrecting his anti-corporate anthem, This Note’s For You, a protest song last played live in 1997 and originally aimed at Budweiser’s sponsorship of music. Jambase reports that Young couldn’t resist performing the track at a venue sponsored by Budweiser, renaming the stage as the Freshwater Amphitheater for the night, and receiving thunderous approval as he sang lyrics pointedly targeting big brands. Social media buzz picked up quickly as Instagram posts from Budweiser Stage documented night two with Neil Young, celebrating timeless songs and the electric energy of his performance—fans and reviewers alike noting full-body goosebumps as classics and rarities like Ambulance Blues opened each show. Salon highlighted the shifts in setlist focus this summer, with a blend of hits and deep cuts, and emphasized Young’s return as a testament to the enduring supremacy of live music. Meanwhile, Jones Beach prepares for his August 23 show, billing the run as the Love Earth world tour and putting environmental causes on the menu with Young’s Homegrown Concessions food initiative. Offstage, while there is no evidence of new controversy, business deal, or non-music headline for Young these past days, a Neil Young tribute act is set for August 22 at the Strand Theatre, underscoring the continued reach of his legacy into grassroots music culture. Through every note and public move this week, Young is not just reliving his past but rigorously adding to it, and the music press is following every chord change.
