Our hero and fellow Pipeline Fighter Neil Young is coming to Lincoln on Saturday, July 11th to perform a concert at Pinnacle Arena with the band Promise of the Real — which includes Lukas and Micah Nelson. For anyone who attended the “Harvest the Hope” concert last fall, Promise of the Real stood out as a force. Rock legend Neil Young teaming up with the Nelson boys is a show that cannot be missed!

POLITICS & PINTS:

Bold Nebraska will host a pre-concert Politics and Pints event at Vega (a 2-minute walk from Pinnacle Arena) that will feature speakers, Special Guests, and musical performances from local artists who appeared on the “Stopping the Pipeline Rocks” #NOKXL tribute album, including The Bottle Tops. Neil’s new album is called “The Monsanto Years” (listen via NPR), and Politics & Pints will focus on the risks that corporation brings to farms and our food system, and other threats to our land and water.

WHAT: Bold Nebraska “Politics + Pints” Event (RSVP BELOW)
WHERE: VEGA: 350 Canopy Street #220, Lincoln, NE 68501
WHEN: Saturday, July 11 3:30 – 5:30 p.m.

MUSIC: The Bottle Tops with Jim Pipher, Jack Hotel, Michael Murphy

SPEAKERS: Jane Kleeb (Bold Nebraska); Shane Davis (founder Fractivist.org); Greg Grey Cloud (Wica Agli); Art Tanderup (farmer and host of Harvest the Hope); more to be announced soon
