Having just come off one of the most successful tours of 2003 in support of his newest release Greendale, Neil Young and his long-time band Crazy Horse have extended the tour into 2004, primarily hitting theatres--complete with the elaborate stage production and live actors performing the critically acclaimed Greendale.

A brilliant songwriter, passionate singer, and unique guitarist, Neil Young has influenced an entire generation of young rock fans by exploring virtually every style and genre of music. Beginning his recording career with 60s legends Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young embarked on a wildly successful solo career with his self-titled debut album in 1968. From there he went on to record and tour with artists such as Crosby, Stills & Nash, Booker T, Pearl Jam, and perhaps the most vital and popular incarnation: Crazy Horse featuring Ralph Molina, Billy Talbot, and Frank "Poncho" Sampedro.
His latest release, the concept album Greendale, is a portrait of small town America as it struggles to come of age in the 21st century. As Neil Young narrates between songs, Greendale tackles themes such as family, crime, the media, and the environment. In addition to Greendale being performed in its entirety, Young will also perform a variety of the fan favorites that have made him a cultural rock icon.
