Like most 67-year-old dudes, Neil Young is keeping busy doing this and that: releasing a pair of albums with Crazy Horse ( Americana and Psychedelic Pill ); publishing his memoirs ( Waging Heavy Peace ). Neil stopped by The Daily Show last night to discuss with Jon Stewart the latter project, but the two of them riffed for 12-plus minutes, roughly the length of a quality Crazy Horse jam. Watch it.

Neil Young famously quit Buffalo Springfield rather than make an appearance on The Night Show with Johnny Carson back in the '60s, but ol' Neil has come around on his distaste for TV. On the occasion of Jon Stewart's 50th birthday, Neil Young stopped by The Daily Show to mainly talk about his new book - Waging Heavy Peace, but that was only the start of an interesting conversation. [Screenshot via CoS ] Stewart has shown an ability to put his guests at ease so [...]

Neil Young stopped by The Daily Show last night to hang out with Jon Stewart on the late night host's 50th birthday. What started out as a discussion on Young's latest autobiography, Waging Heavy Peace , turned into something with a little more depth. As usual, the Crazy Horse frontman broke out of his rough, thick shell and yanked out a couple of yucks. "You know, behind the scenes, I'm really nice," Young contended, pointing to the book's cover. "You see, this guy, right here, he's not very happy looking. I don't know why they always [...]

Last week we told you about Neil Young and Crazy Horse dusting off the electric version of Helpless for the first time in decades. Well last night they did it again as an encore at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, a fitting place considering some of the local references within the song. The video we showed off of the Helpless bust out in Calgary wasn't great, but there's a fabulous clip of yesterday's take thanks to YouTuber carsoni4 . We couldn't [...]

Watch The Civil Wars, Dwight Yoakam, Cowboy Junkies, John C. Reilly and more perform covers live at the annual San Francisco festival.

As a prelude to some sporadic activity in 2012 - including a month-long residency in Vegas and a three-city tour in India - Guns N' Roses performed this past Saturday and Sunday nights at the Bridge School Benefit in Mountain View, CA. For Sunday night's performance, they brought none other than Neil Young himself to the stage for a version of "Don't Let It Bring You Down," from 19702s After The Gold Rush . Axl and Neil trade off on vocals but it's not exactly an even pairing: Axl's vocal sounds especially strained; Neil's actually sounds kinda robust. I'm [...]

While we pointed you towards video of Guns N' Roses' Bridge School Benefit debut on Saturday at Shoreline, the band had a major change in their set for the second day of the two-day event.

Axl and Neil shared vocals on Don't Let It Bring You Down. At [...]

Que Foo Fighters y The Black Keys son de los dos grupos de rock más importantes de la actualidad es algo que pocos se atreverían a discutir. Por una parte tenemos a los de Dave Grohl, que en 2011 arrasaron con el espectacular Wasting Light , y por otra a The Black Keys, que hicieron lo propio con El Camino , aunque se trate de un álbum que tiene mucho de 2012 ya que fue lanzado a finales. [...]
