Last night, Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California hosted the first night of this year’s Bridge School Benefit concerts. Organized by rocker Neil Young and his wife Pegi, the concert has been a Bay Area staple since 1986. Neil and Crazy Horse headlined yesterday’s festivities and offered a set similar to those played on this tour, with a big hitch – the band performed unplugged. For the Rockin’ In The Free World finale, Young welcomed many of those on the bill to lend a hand.
