Neil Young & Crazy Horse – August 6th – Red Rocks

Estimated read time 7 min read

If there is one aging rocker whose legendary status is truly deserved, it’s Neil Young. He has excelled as part of the quartet Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, as a solo artist writing folk leaning acoustic tunes and epic electric rocks, and as the leader of music’s first Grunge band, Crazy Horse. He’s done it all and, despite a brain aneurysm that nearly killed him back in 2005, he’s still doing it and, if several of the new tunes he showcased on Monday night are any indication, doing it very, very well.

Stephen Stills – November 13th – The Ogden Theatre

Estimated read time 5 min read

From his beginnings in Cambridge and Greenwich Village to his Manassas days on a British Estate he touched on just about everything. Stills brought not only a great sense of nostalgia, but helped connect past with present with songs penned in days of revolution and love. Despite losing a step or two vocally, Stephen Stills is going strong and strongly going ahead into his wiser years.
