Like many Americans, Neil Young is spending a great deal of time at home to avoid coronavirus.
That being said, the legendary singer-songwriter still has the itch to perform, so he will be serving up a series of “Fireside Sessions” to stay in touch with fans.
“Because we are all at home and not venturing out, we will try to do a stream from my fireplace with my lovely wife [Daryl Hannah] filming. It will be a down-home production, a few songs, a little time together,” wrote the songwriting legend.
You can stay up to date with Young’s Fireside Sessions by visiting his Neil Young Archives fan site or keeping an eye on his Twitter page.
Watch Young’s first session – showcasing “Heart of Gold” and pulling double-duty as a rally for presidential candidate Bernie Sanders – below.

March 18, 2020 at 11:47 amWe got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man ‘-Nope not really, a sarcastic point from Neil re: senior Bush’
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand ‘-More sarcasm, truer than ever. Gun sales soaring during COVID-19.’
We got department stores
and toilet paper ‘-You sure do, although closing soon, Walmart stock at all-time high, what a joke, nice society you got. Toilette Paper: idiot ignorant Americans hoarding and clearing the shelves of it inexplicably.’
Got styrofoam boxes
for the ozone layer ‘-Humpty et alii deny this in full, as standard.’
Got a man of the people, ‘-Nope, a spoiled rich kid, who pissed his inheritance away,now owing Russian Oligarchs $billions from previous personal bankruptcies and personal bailouts. One who cheated and lied throughout his entire life right up to the current minute.’
says keep hope alive ‘-Whatever, LMFAO.’
Got fuel to burn, ‘- You sure do, now soon to be about a $BUCK-a-GALLON.’
got roads to drive. ‘-But nowhere to go.’

That little rat Flynn, his poor finklestein lawyer, the nut job white-hair-dyed-plugs/hair-pieced Roger Stone, Manafort, you know, ……. all of his merry bidding-doers. What a living atrocity is that man. Rock on Neil ! ohhhh, hooooo, ALABAMA, four dead in O-HI-YO…….

March 18, 2020 at 10:54 amI’m not political at all but I love me some Neil Young and if you know anything about Neil is he loves Mother Earth and Bernie Sanders is the only candidate talking about climate change and ways to start changing that.That is why Neil is backing Bernie.Just because you might have different beliefs don’t give you the right to belittle someone just because they don’t believe like you.Next thing you will be saying is Lock Him Up! or some other stupid saying.Be kind and put others before yourself .Much Love to y’all and stay healthy as good as you can.

March 18, 2020 at 9:24 amMe and Moondog, only ones here with some common sense. Others: truly frightening, especially in this time we’re in. Also, the sad and tired response to these fools on a jam band site: “You don’t like Neil, you don’t want to hear a nice six song mini-set from his home?”,…. the DON’T FUCKIN” watch. Simple as pie.

March 18, 2020 at 5:10 amI’m a 64 year old hippie. I’ve considered myself a hippie since I smoked my first joint in 1969 while watching Easy Rider at the local Drive-Inn. I’m also a true believer & supporter of Bernie. No one has ever stood by his idea’s as much as him & fought the good for all mankind, with that said…. If Bernie sadly doesn’t get the Dem nomination you can bet your ass I will vote for Joe. Honestly…. If any of you younger people that support Bernie decide to stay home or vote against the Democratic nominee, I seriously believe you really need your head’s examined! If you think that’s gonna make your future better in the long run & you are just plainly wrong! Please just do the right thing & get Trump out of office for the good of the planet as well as the good of you & your children’s future. After I’m long dead & gone you’ll be happy you did it & I’ll also be smiling from beyond knowing you did the right then. Peace.

Trump is the best thing to happen to this country
We are so blessed Just to have somebody who is competent and intelligent handling this situation.
Neil Young should be sticking to his music and not politics.

March 17, 2020 at 10:43 pmHoly shit, please tell me Louis ck is making his comeback here. Anyone who is still a delusional Trump supporter should be made to drink the spit of coronavirus victims, and if Bernie bros are saying bernie or burn the country, you may actually be dumber than the remaining Trump clueless crowd! Generally speaking, though you can clearly tell I am not voting for either of those two, I really am happy if you vote at all… but, PLEASE, just use your brain rather than gobbling the hype of the far left/right blindly! Trump has fucked everything up but the economy… whoops, wait… his moronic handling of the “Chinese virus” cost him that too! And if you think Bernie is going to pay for everything for you, please understand that will create a world of begging lazy people. Get up, deal with your situation, better yourself and help your neighbor if they need a hand. Call me a boomer, I dont give a shit because my old ass will be dead whether you get so freaking lazy you lose your country, or not. That will be a harder lesson than if you were president of the US and completely fucked up your chance at protecting your country from a pandemic, no matter how great you are, or how beautiful your late to the party test kits might be. Biden isn’t perfect either but he has one thing the other two lack… common sense!
