Neil Young refuses to play in coliseums, wants the "old barns"

Neil Young and Crazy Horse are planning a tour in support of their latest album 'Colorado', so they started booking some "barns". As they explain on the Neil Young Archives website - "many of the old places we used to play are gone now, replaced by new coliseums we have to book year in advance and we don’t want to go to anyway". Apart from that, "largely soulless, these new buildings cost a fortune to play in... We don’t like the new rules. So we asked for the old arenas where we used to play, and we learned [that a huge amount of them are demolished, but many are also still standing]. Among those on their list of arenas still standing: MSG, Forum, Nassau Coliseum, Long Beach Arena, Cow Palace, Chicago Arena, Nashville Municipal Auditorium".
