The rock legend performed his 1990 album Ragged Glory in full\u2014only the second time he has ever done this live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With just 200 guests in attendance, the atmosphere was electric. Fans from Neil Young\u2019s website, Thrasher\u2019s Wheat, confirmed that he played nearly every song from the album, except Mother Earth. He closed the show with classics like Cinnamon Girl and Rockin\u2019 In The Free World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The night also featured rare live performances of White Line, Over and Over, and Farmer John\u2014songs he hadn\u2019t played since 1976 and 2012. Canadian rock band the Arkells also performed, with Young taking the stage before them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This wasn\u2019t Young\u2019s first private concert\u2014he previously played a private event in Paris for a finance executive. Interestingly, his song This Note\u2019s For You criticizes corporate influence in music, a stance he has mostly maintained even after selling 50% of his song catalog in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Neil Young & Crazy Horse : Toronto May 20 2024 (Love Earth Tour) : #neilyoung\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/79E-mtffwg0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event also sparked some discussion due to Canada Goose\u2019s past controversy with PETA over its use of coyote fur, a practice the company ended in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, Young is preparing for his Love Earth tour after a three-year break from touring.
