Neil Young Tour Dates (Pre-sale Info)
Got word from ryantheduke that Neil Young is touring with Wilco. And he’s right! From CBC Radio 3:
The tour starts in St. Paul, Minnesota on October 14 and ends at Madison Square Garden in New York on December 15.
Canadian dates include Winnipeg (Oct. 16), Regina (Oct. 18), Calgary (Oct. 19), Vancouver (Oct. 22), Halifax (Nov. 29), Montreal (Dec. 1), Ottawa (Dec. 2) and Toronto (Dec. 4).
Death Cab For Cutie and Everest will open for the first half of the tour; then, starting in Halifax on November 29, Wilco and Everest will take over the opening duties. (Of the announcement, Everest said “It’s a dream come true.”)
According to Live Nation, fans of the veteran rocker can expect an eclectic mix of newer material, as well as classic hits.
