Few musical artists have shown as much interest in cataloging their history as Neil Young. Since RUST NEVER SLEEPS in 1979, Young has been at the center of ten concert films. Oscar-winning director Jonathan Demme has always exhibited a passion for music in his films and reset the standard for concert films with 1984’s STOP MAKING SENSE. The two men, both in their 60s, came together for the 2006 release HEART OF GOLD, which chronicled a Young concert in a historic theater as elegantly and precisely as a well-rehearsed curtain call. But Young and Demme never rest, and three years later, they are back, chronicling yet another tour. This time, the style is rough, raw and relentlessly rock ‘n’ roll. Nine cameras shooting two shows in three formats (HDCAM, HDV and Super-8mm) create the ultimate Neil Young video bootleg video. The duo plans on completing their trilogy in 2012.
