Earlier this evening, Richie Furay reported on Facebook:
” For those of you getting excited about the Buffalo Springfield fall tour – word has just come to me that it has been moved to the first of next year. I’m not going to spend a lot time here with details as you speculate among yourselves – there’s nothing to speculate about, the tour has simply been moved. ”
So, the 30-dates tour is postponed, and of course we do not speculate…
video on the 30-days tour of the Buffalo in fall 2011:
30 dates, says Richie Furay.
“Buffalo Springfield to Launch 30-Date Tour This Fall
‘I think this is the fun we thought we were going to have back in the Sixties,’ says Richie Furay”
Rolling Stone reports that.
Richie is the most verbose one of the current tour.
” How many days did you guys rehearse?
A solid week. ”
Now that’s a solid statement.
Neil Young and Buffalo Springfield confirm 2011 fall tour plans

Buffalo Springfield alumni including Canadian legendary singer/songwriter Neil Young have confirmed they will tour in the fall after completing a handful of California gigs this month in preparation for playing Bonnaroo Music Festival.
The news was confirmed yesterday by bandmember Richie Furay who revealed the band will hit the road in September.
“There will be a fall tour — September, October, November,” Furay told Billboard.com. “We have a bunch of cities for the fall that we’re looking at right now to just logically put together.”
Surviving Springfield members Furay, Young, and Young’s Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young bandmate Stephen Stills reunited for the 1st time in 42 years to play Young’s annual Bridge School Benefit last October.
The members enjoyed it so much, they got together this again this summer, and kicked off their pre-Bonnaroo warm up appearance with 2 shows at the Fox Theatre in Oakland, CA on June 1 & 2 (6/1/11 – 6/2/11).

The “For What It’s Worth” hitmakers will play Los Angeles on June 4 & 5 as well as Santa Barbara on June 7 & 8 before performing at Bonnaroo on June 11.
Along with a full set list a Springfield songs, the band has been encoring with Young’s 1989 anthem “Rocking in the Free World.”
No word on what U.S. or Canadian stops Buffalo Springfield might make on the fall tour. A vinyl box set of the group’s 3 albums, titled “Buffalo Springfield Complete” will be released soon.
Did you know? A full Buffalo Springfield reunion is no longer a possibility due to the October 2004 death of bassist Bruce Palmer, and the January 2009 death of drummer Dewey Martin. Along with Neil Young, Palmer and Martin were Canadians.
CONFIRMED:
“Buffalo Springfield would be playing two dates at Red Rocks and could
add a night in Town Park.”
So Buffalo Springfield, 2 nights at Red Rocks, right before September 9.
In addition to confirmed Buffalo Springfield summer shows:
01.06. Oakland, Fox Theater 02.06. Oakland, Fox Theater 04.06. LA, The Wiltern 05.06. LA, The Wiltern 07.06. Santa Barbara Bowl 08.06. Santa Barbara Bowl
