Neil Young continues to be outspoken against the Trump administration, and he blasts Trump’s illegal deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. in a new song, “Big Crime.” He shared recording from Wednesday’s soundcheck on his Neli Young Archives site, along with the lyrics, which include the lines:
Got to get the fascist out
got to Clean the white house out
Don’t want soldiers on our streets
There’s big crime in DC at THE White House
There’s big crime in DC at THE White House
Neil and his new-ish band The Chrome Hearts also gave the song its live debut at their Chicago show on Wednesday night at Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island. You can watch an attendee-taken video clip of that below, and see the setlist.
Neil’s current tour runs into mid-September.
