What album is Neil Young touring?

The Love Earth world tour showcases not one singular album, but hits and deep cuts from Neil Young’s illustrious career. The lineup includes solo classics like "Harvest Moon" and songs he performed with Crazy Horse and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young (like "Name of Love" and "Looking Forward.") Many of the songs are ones Young hasn't performed live for years.

Where in NYC is Neil Young performing?

Neil Young will be performing at Northwell Health's Jones Beach Theater on Long Island, accessible from NYC by car or the Long Island Railroad. As the name suggests, the venue is beachside and outdoors.

The venue allows clear plastic or vinyl tote bags no larger than 12” x 6” x 12” and/or small clutch bags (6” x 9”) that do not need to be clear. Lawn chairs, alcohol, glass containers, selfie sticks, and drones are forbidden, and if you want to bring a camera, it has to be “nonprofessional only, no detachable lenses.”

The venue also permits one factory-sealed bottle of water (at max 1 liter) per guest. The venue supplies water refill stations if you bring an empty reusable bottle — a choice true to Young’s “Love Earth” mission for sustainability.

What is the runtime of Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts' Love Earth tour?

The running time of the Love Earth tour concert is approximately 2 hours with no intermission.

What is Neil Young’s music genre?

Neil Young has been acclaimed for his folk-rock songwriting. His music has also incorporated country-folk, pop, noise, punk, and electronica sounds.

Many of his lyrics act as wistful elegies to a better Earth now gone: “The sky was blue and the air so clean, the water crystal clear.”

What can I expect at a Neil Young show?

Expect a mix of Neil Young classics like “Heart of Gold” along with songs he released with previous collaborators, including deep cuts. When Young played Love Earth in Groningen, Netherlands, he reportedly revived the rarely performed "My Boy."
