Neil Young & Crazy Horse Bust Out ‘Danger Bird’ & ‘Wonderin’’ In Winnipeg

Neil Young & Crazy Horse played the second of two shows in Winnipeg on Monday night, moving to Centennial Concert Hall following Sunday’s concert at Burton Cummings Theatre For The Performing Arts. Night two featured Young’s first live performances of “Wonderin’” since 1996 and “Danger Bird” since 2013.

Young once again started the show solo, selecting “Out On The Weekend” as the opener. Busted out the night before, “Distant Camera” came next, followed by “War Of Man,” “Old King,” “Green Is Blue,” “Don’t Let It Bring You Down” and “Journey Through The Past.”

The second half featured Young accompanied by bassist Billy Talbot, drummer Ralph Molina and guitarist Nils Lofgren, with “Rockin’ In The Free World” starting the full band portion of the night. The unlikely Zuma track “Danger Bird” was then brought out, followed by the equally unexpected rarity “Wonderin’” that first appeared on Young’s album Everybody’s Rockin’. The set was filled in by such classics as “The Losing End,” “Roll Another Number,” “Winterlong,” “Cortez The Killer” and “F*!#in’ Up.” Young and Crazy Horse ended the night with an encore consisting of “Like A Hurricane” and “Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black).”

My immigration anthem….Anybody who has gone through the process of emigration/ immigration will relate. The whole process of making the decision, to leave everything you know, behind, for a chance at a better life in another country. Then there is the waiting game while you go through the process of your new country’s immigration processes, the feeling of angst as you wait, to see if you made the cut. Waiting to see if your decision to literally put all your eggs in one basket, will be the correct one. During our first visit to Canada and specifically Manitoba in 2012, I knew, this was where I want to come and live. For us, the process had however only begun. Markus Chambers invited #MyMostBeautiful to apply for PR status through the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program for Skilled Workers. That was step one…..All through the following years, this song of #NeilYoung, was my anthem of hope, that we will make it to Canada…And we did. Tonight, as a proud Canadian Citizen, I watched a fellow Canadian, a legend, perform my immigration anthem live, in his hometown, #Winnipeg, which is my hometown too.. It was pretty incredible…..Thank you @neilyoung for a most memorable evening.
