I'm sure word has gotten out but i'm too lazy to search for the thread. NEIL YOUNG is coming to Winnipeg! WOOT! :jump :thumb: :jump [/b]

[tigerthelion]

Yeah, I heard.

Did you guys read this? <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Artists/Y/Young_Neil/2006/04/15/1535212.html">http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Artists/Y/You ... 35212.html</a><!-- m -->

Released in 6 to 8 weeks? New Neil Young protest cd? hock: hock:

[PortlandCarbo]

I'll buy the CD in a second. To be honest though, it still blows me away that people actually voted Bush into office let alone actually kept him there for a second term. What a bunch of idiots...

[tommygunn]

I've heard they will be touring but I haven't heard/seen any dates yet. Is there a tour schedule out?

[nutsac78]

All i've heard is that Winnipeg will be their only Western Canada stop, sometime in July. I'm not sure if Neil is making the whole tour or just Winnipeg.

[tommygunn]

I recall reading that Neil will be with them for 35 or so dates in North America but he won't be accompanying the band to Europe.

Ask yourself who the real "bunch of idiots" is:

The people voting for Bush, a leader who is loathed by liberals and a president with whom Republicans themselves aren't too keen,

-or-

The Democrats, who couldn't stop babbling, stumbling, and drooling long enough to nominate a candidate who could win an election that was virtually handed to them,

-AND-

Their constituency, who can bitch and moan all the livelong day, but don't have enough sense to sieze an opportunity to affect a change and exercise the privilege to do so afforded them by the Constitution of the United States.

I don't suppose good ol' Neil will be protesting voter apathy and lack of socio-political conviction?

[skippy the wonder dog]

Uh, I'm sorry ... electing the Democrats would actually effect a change?

[The Horrible Esthete]

Good point skippy.

[bauer]

[nutsac78]

Heard it on the radio, AM & FM. Then i read this article....
