Hurricane at Hill Winery or There's A Hole In The Roof.

It’s been a long time since I was this wet and cold. Before Neil and The Horse took the stage, I was already shivering, my fingers were refusing to work and looked as though I’d just finished a swim from Melbourne to Tassie.
However, scoring a front rail position, a few metres to the left of centre stage made any physical discomforts fade from my mind. Already I knew that the ticket price was worth every cent and that this evening would leave me with memories I’d treasure for the rest of my life!
Tonight's performance of Like A Hurricane I would rank as the greatest single highlight of ANY concert that I have seen. By now the rain had made the decision to stay and really test the resolve of the band and the 10,000 saturated fans.
Poncho’s keyboard seemed to be stuck above the stage and couldn’t be lowered. Neil was standing in the middle of all this just pointing towards the stage roof, waiting. Finally the battered keyboard was lowered but by this stage hurricane-like winds were swirling, causing it to swing wildly around the stage like a crazy, uncontrollable pendulum. Poncho couldn’t steady it enough to begin playing the intro so Neil went it alone.
Then the rain was turned up to ”11”.
Poncho momentarily gave up, the stage was inundated with water and part of the roof gave way to the weight of the rain, tipping its load directly onto Neil!
At this point I expected that the show was going to be cancelled as the crew frantically tried to protect equipment from damage.
I suppose Neil has seen everything over the decades and he never once flinched or lost his composure. Some of his guitar work might sound unusual throughout Like A Hurricane as he was drying Old Black with his shirt as he played!
Amazing. The crowd went nuts with enthusiasm and revelled in this insane, yet wonderful situation.
An absolutely incredible moment from an unforgettable show. A band of true professionals and passionate performers. Thanks to Neil Young and Crazy Horse for coming to my home, Geelong!


Enjoy. Hopefully your computer doesn't get water damage from this recording (haha)!

Agujero en el cielo

Hola!
The first show of the Australian leg of the Alchemy tour in Perth was fantastic. The spirit of the shows of 2012 has continued.
The show started with usual intro of A Day In The Life and followed by the Australian anthem.
Set list was similar to the US shows except for a new song about the hole in the sky and solar energy.
One of the highlights was a very animated Fuckin' Up.
Encore was Roll Another Number.
A day sightseeing tomorrow and then Off to Adelaide.
Adios

Gracias a Robert Sampimon, ya tenemos una pequeña crónica del primer concierto de Neil Young en Australia. Nos ha sabido a poco, pero ya sabéis que Australia está muy lejos y que los envíos son caros.

Lo mejor de todo es el anuncio de esa nueva canción, A Hole In THe Sky, que hará las delicias de los rusties del mundo entero (y a alguno de Oviedo, en particular). Eso demuestra que a sus 65 tacos, el Tío Neil sigue componiendo y sorprendiendo al personal con la misma ilusión del primer día. Este Neil…

Y la transcripción de la letra…

Hole in the sky

There's a hole in the sky
There's a hole in the sky
There's a hole in the sky
Don't forget it now
There's a hole in the sky

Hey pretty baby won't you take a ride with me
I love the sun
Make my engine run, be my destiny
I love the sun
Come on baby take a long ride with me
I love the sun

There is a hole in the sky
There is a hole in the sky
There is a hole in the sky
Don't forget it now
There is a hole in the sky

Keep on working on the poisoned pipeline
I love the sun
Rake that money in and cross the border line
I love the sun
Keep on working you're running out of time
I love the sun

There's a hole in the sky
Don't forget it now
There's a hole in the sky
Don't forget it now
There's a hole in the sky

I'll never burn again that dying energy
I love the sun
For when I tap the sun i feel so free
I love the sun
It's good for growing trees so why not you and me
I love the sun

I love the sun
I love the sun

There's a hole in the sky

Don't you forget it now
Don't forget it now

There is a hole in the sky
Don't forget it now
There's hole in the sky
There's a hole in the sky
There's a hole in the sky

Gracias Robert (y gracias a Rusted Moon y a Roel por su emisora neiladicta) por esta primicia. Ahora, a disfrutar un poco mientras llega el verano.
