Very cool on a number of levels.
- Neil has finally allowed his videos on YouTube (Although, we'll see how long that lasts.)
- That song kicks all kinds of ass.
- That video is phenomenal. Love those Complex Sessions takes on the Sleeps With Angels material.
- It it further evidence that this fragile reconnection with The Horse may actually happen.

One of my favorite Neil "videos" of all time. Just put up on youtube on Neil's official page. From the "Complex Sessions" (http://thrasherswheat.org/ttn/complex-sessions.htm) film made by Jonathan Demme in the mid-90's. Jesus Christ I am excited about seeing Crazy Horse again... I was getting pretty worried it wasn't going to happen. Enjoy.

Local artist, Jake Early, created this poster a few years back. He's also done some cool posters for MMJ, he's a total fanatic over MMJ.

Dare I say that this project might be for only the hardest-core Neil fans among us.

The trailer for Jonathan Demme's upcoming film, Journeys:



Description from YouTube:

A look at Neil Young's 2011 solo tour to Toronto's Massey Hall, an iconic venue in the city of his birth. At sixty-five, Young retains a youthful vitality and musical curiosity. Concert footage of the Massey Hall performances is interspersed with scenes from a road trip through Ontario. Driving a 1956 Ford Crown Victoria, Young visits the rural town of Omemee, where he spent a key part of his formative years, and reminisces about his former neighbors. As he drives past the dramatically changed landscape, Young fondly embraces his memories of the past.
