Music and transcendance

I have a confession. The only time I've seen Neil Young live was when he walked by me on Haight Street while I was busking one of my tunes about a year ago. (I'm still trying to have it not mean anything that my performance was not enough to interrupt his march to wherever he was going.) In fact, the first time I remember seeing a Neil Young *performance* was just a few minutes ago, when I watched the "Like A Hurricane" video above, and I'm just floored.

There's something transcendent about his performance. The music flows with a most powerful and eloquent grace. I feel embarrassed by admitting I've never seen Neil Young live and feel like a neophyte annoyingly spouting the obvious. But I wanted to share. Neil Young rocks.
