Got to see Neil Young at the Wolstein Center last night. Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay for the whole thing because Tilly & the Wall were also performing at the Grog Shop. Some may say I'm crazy for leaving this show early… and I can appreciate that. I have mad respect for this man and his music. It's just these large venues don't resonate with me like a small club show anymore. I mean c'mon, look at this photo:
Still thought he sounded great. Not like some old school artists that I think they just wheel out on stage to make a profit. Here's a Cleveland.com review:

"The Wolstein Center was at near-capacity and the general admission crowd on the floor stood at delirious attention hanging on every ear-splitting note. The place looked like old-hippie heaven. As he proved Monday night, Neil Young contains multitudes. He is a singer/songwriter. He is a rock star. He is a proud Canadian as evidenced by his new song 'Born in Ontario.' He is an artist and trickster who never stops seeking the muse and who continues to find joy doing it. The feeling is contagious. The seven-piece East Los Angeles Latino rockers, Los Lobos, opened the program with a tight and sweat-drenched 40-minute set including hits, 'Will the Wolf Survive?' the blues number 'That Train Don't Stop Here' and the Cajun boogie classic 'Marie, Marie.'"
