Neil Young announces Carnegie Hall shows



Neil Young has announced a series of four shows in January at New York’s Carnegie Hall.

Young will perform January 6th, 7th, 9th & 10th.

Ticket pre-sales start at 10am ET on Friday, November 1 with general tickets on sale at 10 AM ET on Monday, November 4, both at Live Nation.

Last weekend, Young hosted his 27th annual Bridge School Benefit Concerts at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California.

Young organizes the annual acoustic-based shows, which raise funds for the Bridge School, a facility that develops and uses advanced technologies to aid in the instruction of children with disabilities; it was founded in 1986 by Pegi Young and Jim Forderer with help from Dr. Marilyn Buzolich. The first benefit concert, in 1986, raised the money necessary to start the school, which opened in ’87.

Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young headlined this year’s event, which also saw performances by Queens Of The Stone Age, Tom Waits, My Morning Jacket, Elvis Costello, The Killers, Diana Krall, fun., Heart, and Jenny Lewis.
