Chicago show – night one “restless energy”

Written by Shar on 22 April 2014

Review of first Chicago show. Neil plays again tonight, Tuesday April 22. More reviews from Human Highway roving reporter to come.

Chicago Tribune review of the Monday, April 21 Neil Young solo acoustic show starts:

“His eyes shaded by a black fedora, Neil Young strapped on a guitar that once belonged to Hank Williams Sr. and leaned in, as if ready to whisper in someone’s ear.

‘Come a little bit closer, hear what I have to say,’ he sang near the end of his sold-out concert Monday at the Chicago Theatre.”
