For those that did not attend Neil Young's one man acoustic shows at the Acamedy of Music, here is the set list (same show both nights).

PHILADELPHIA FLYERS: The team sponsored a name-the-team contest after Ed Snider, then-vice president of the Philadelphia Eagles, brought hockey back to the City of Brotherly Love in 1966. Snider's sister, Phyllis, reportedly suggested the name Flyers, which sounds good when paired with Philadelphia but doesn't have any real meaning.
