You should’ve gone to Hyde Park, the next night …. Day in the life,again, but this time with Sir P McC joining in, bowing to the Daddy in a “I am not worthy” kind of way!!! … I’ve seen Neil dozens of times since way back … NEVER better than that!!

Neil Youngs performance on the friday was just awsome – I do not use this word lightly he totally rocked – at the end of one song there was just silence while the crowd just looked at each other open mouthed relising they had just seen the best bit of guitar mastery they would ever witness – and then we all went mental! – the last shot of the gibson standing there with all the strings hanging off it knowing it had been played like never before and it had no more to give will stay with me always.

I’m with you on the ‘sucked’……

DrShakes92 November 18, 2009 at 5:46 pm

he didnt play “Old Man” his setlist is on the bbc website and they showed less than half his set on tv which sucked.

TheCrackerFactory November 18, 2009 at 5:59 pm

Explains alot :) Although he does have a slight bit of insanity about him!

moorendbristol777 November 18, 2009 at 6:58 pm

‘Weld’ is the album you need!

moorendbristol777 November 18, 2009 at 7:37 pm

I don’t think he lost it, more like he was losing himself in the music. The guitar was ok, it’s been with him for years! A new set of strings maybe?

I dont know much about this guy but he was amazing at Hyde Park on Sat night

TheCrackerFactory November 18, 2009 at 8:08 pm

Did he loose it at the end because his priceless les paul got fucked?

moorendbristol777 November 18, 2009 at 8:54 pm

Same, didn’t see the whole show.

I think you must be pretty hip yourself. Your site(s) are brilliant! Me I’ve missed the boat really with technology – I did my maths exam with a slide rule. Really liked the music. Ever in Bristol look me up. Have you ever read ‘Blood meridian’ by Cormac McCarthy ? I think you’d enjoy. Regards, Garth

mistertakahashi November 18, 2009 at 9:27 pm

he is one hip old guy

Kyrano November 18, 2009 at 10:08 pm

Hell yeah, he’s had that Les Paul for about 40 years. It’s certainly stood the test of time.

yousurfer2 November 19, 2009 at 12:23 am

people pay to watch this?

moorendbristol777 November 19, 2009 at 1:11 am

He’s had that guitar a while, we’re not talking about Pete or Jimi – more heavy petting!

loneboarder7 November 19, 2009 at 1:14 am

Old Black took a bit of abuse after ‘A Day In The Life’. He snapped all the strings on the GLP Goldtop and then proceeded to make noise by knocking a mic stand against the pick-ups. lol

? I’m to old to understand your tounge!
