Why?

Because there are very few new topics on here to discuss daily...

Neil Young: Cinnamon Girl

Young started with the band Buffalo Springfield which included himself, Stephen Stills (later to join Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young) & Jim Messina (later to be in the group Logins & Messina). Young has performed in FIVE decades & is still a headliner band with his group, Crazy Horse...

Looking forward to this show. Saw him a couple of years ago at Bass Hall and I thought the show was a little ... odd. Hoping the festival environment and a big crowd bring on a great performance.



SOOO...Are You Talking About The Show Were He Was Sitting

In A Chair - In The Middle Of The Stage - With A Horseshoe Of

Instruments Around Him Ending With The Hammond Organ?



If SO... THAT WAS AN AMAZING SHOW!!!!!

I Had EXCELLENT SEATS LIKE 5th Row Center!!!

I was not too hot on the ACL line-up this year so I passed. Neil Young is the only one I really wanted to see. Several others that I would have enjoyed seeing but just didn't think it was worth the price. Certainly hope you and others enjoy the 3 days. Weather should be better than in the past -- at least temperature-wise. I just love the atmosphere of ACL.

Have tickets to Crosby, Stills, and Nash at ACL Live.

BTW, loved Buffalo Springfield.

Toyz ACL Countdown: The Black Lips, song of the day "Bad Kids"

Hard not to sing along with this one...

Lilly: That was the show. Maybe it was me, but that show didn't do it for me. I'll give it another whirl at ACL.

Looking forward to Black Keys, Weezer, Old 97s, jack white, and RHCP for sure.

Also looking forward to 3 days in the sun with some cold drinks. A flask full of Tito's + Sweet Leaf Tea = good times.
