NEIL YOUNG, after three decades still one of the most acclaimed and influential figures in rock 'n' roll, will bring his longtime supporting band Crazy Horse to the Virginia Beach Amphitheater on Aug. 15.
Tickets are $32.75 (Gold Circle), $24.75 (reserved) and $17.75 (festival lawn), plus parking and service charges, and go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. Order at 671-8100.
Always a prolific artist, Young has stayed especially busy lately. ``Sleeps With Angels,'' inspired by the death of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain, was released 1994. Last year's ``Mirror Ball,'' recorded with Pearl Jam, finished on many Top 10 lists. His new album, ``Broken Arrow,'' will be released July 2.
Opening for Young will be Gin Blossoms and Ben Folds Five. by CNB
