Our hero and fellow Pipeline Fighter Neil Young is coming to Lincoln on Saturday, July 11th to perform a concert at Pinnacle Arena with the band Promise of the Real — which includes Lukas and Micah Nelson. For anyone who attended the “Harvest the Hope” concert last fall, Promise of the Real stood out as a force. Rock legend Neil Young teaming up with the Nelson boys is a show that cannot be missed!

POLITICS & PINTS:

Bold Nebraska will host a pre-concert Politics and Pints event at Vega (a 2-minute walk from Pinnacle Arena) that will feature speakers and musical performances from local artists who appeared on the “Stopping the Pipeline Rocks” #NOKXL tribute album, including The Bottle Tops. Neil’s new album is called “The Monsanto Years” (listen via NPR), and Politics & Pints will focus on the risks that corporation brings to farms and our food system, and other threats to our land and water.
