LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-NOV 21, 2018...NEIL YOUNG AND CRAZY HORSE ROCKED THE COW PALACE ON THIS DAY IN 1986. IT WAS A LIVE PPV SHOWTIME SPECIAL AND NATIONAL ROCK RADIO BROADCAST. IT WAS ALL PART OF YOUNG’S “USA TOUR 1986” AND THE CONCEPT OF THE CONCERT WAS YOUNG GATHERED HIS BAND IN A GARAGE AND INVITED A FEW THOUSAND PEOPLE TO WATCH. THE SHOW WAS VERY THEATRICAL FEATURING ELABORATE PROPS THAT TRANSFORMED THE STAGE TO LOOK LIKE AN OLD RUSTED OUT GARAGE. AT VARIOUS TIMES DURING THE CONCERT A LARGE SPIDER DROPPED FROM THE RAFTERS, BIG 2 FOOT COCKROACHES CRAWLED ACROSS THE STAGE, AND A “NEIGHBOR” EVEN DROPPED BY TO COMPLAIN HOW LOUD THE BAND IS AND ASKED THEM TO TURN DOWN THE VOLUME.
THIS IS VIDEO FROM AN EARLIER CONCERT ON THE TOUR. IT LOOKS LIKE THE ENTIRE VIDEO WAS SHOT FROM SIDE STAGE
THIS IS AUDIO ONLY FROM THE SAN FRANCISCO CONCERT (PART 1)
AND THIS IS AUDIO ONLY, PART 2
