Neil Young Performs 1983 Deep Cut ‘My Boy’ for First Time in 42 Years
Neil Young revisited one of the most personal songs in his extensive catalog during a special benefit concert.
Neil Young revisited one of the most personal songs in his extensive catalog during a special benefit concert on Friday night (May 23), delivering the first live performance of “My Boy” in more than four decades. The show, a solo acoustic set held on the grounds of Ontario’s Lakefield College School, marked Young’s first full performance of 2025 and supported restoration efforts for a historic 116-year-old cottage nearby. He closed the show with “Old Man,” although a printed setlist hinted at two intended encore tracks — “Throw Your Hatred Down” and “Rockin’ in the Free World” — that were likely scrapped due to inclement weather.
