Music News: Neil Young Cancels European Tour

Neil Young has cancelled his entire tour.

The 80-year-old musician has called off his UK and European tour, which was due to begin at Cornwallâs Eden Sessions on June 17 before ending in Udine, Italy on July 26, saying âthis is not the timeâ for him to be playing shows.

In a statement posted on his website Neil Young Archives, he wrote: âI have decided to take a break and will not be touring Europe this time.â âThanks to everyone who bought tickets. Iâm sorry to let you down, but this is not the time. I do love playing LIVE and being with you and the Chrome Hearts. LOVE Neil be well.â

After kicking off in Cornwall, Young was due to play Manchesterâs Heaton Park on June 19 and the headline slot at the inaugural State Fayre Festival in Chelmsford on June 27. He was scheduled to travel to Scotland for the Glasgow Summer Sessions at Bellahouston Park on June 29, before performing at Blenheim Palace Festival in Oxford on July 3 and Cardiffâs Blackweir Fields on July 5.

After that, he was due to travel to Europe for a number of shows before his final gig in Italy on July 26.

Meanwhile, Neil â who turned 80 in November â recently admitted he spent years dreading the big birthday but heâs since come to accept his age and decided it âdoesnât matter any moreâ.

Speaking to fans on a live Zoom chat in January, he explained: âI thought Iâd be scared. I was scared of getting to be 80 all the time until I was 80. And then I went: âIâm 80. What the heck? Who cares?â It doesnât matter any more. Lots of things donât matter that used to matter.â

Young went on to explain he is trying his best to stay fit and healthy, but he doesnât like going to the gym so he takes himself off for long walks instead.

He said: âI like to be healthy. I like to be physical. I like to go out and walk. I donât like to go to the gym, but I walked three miles yesterday at 8,500 feet. Thatâs what I like to do.â

In the chat, Young also dismissed the idea of having his life turned into a movie â declaring a biopic shouldnât be made until after heâs died.

When asked if he would follow in Bob Dylanâs footsteps by approving a film like A Complete Unknown, Young explained: âI donât know how you could do that while youâre still alive.

âIâve got some people that I know that are working on something, but I donât want to have anything to do with that. Iâd rather make another record.â âCan you imagine being there and having someone making a film and youâre going: âYeah, this is a good film about meâ.â
