Neil Young invites Trump to one of his shows amid feud

The Advertiser05-06-2025
Neil Young has invited Donald Trump to attend one of his concerts after showing his support for Bruce Springsteen amid his feud with the US president.
Trump, 78, was left furious after Springsteen hit out at the "corruption" and "incompetence" of the president's administration during a recent concert in Manchester.
Trump blasted Springsteen as a "pushy, obnoxious JERK" via his social media platform Truth Social.
Young spoke out in support of Springsteen, who insisted he wasn't "scared" of Trump.
He penned on his Neil Young Archives site: "Bruce and thousands of musicians think you are ruining America. You worry about that instead of the dyin' kids in Gaza. That's your problem. I am not scared of you. Neither are the rest of us. You shut down FEMA when we needed it most. That's your problem Trump. STOP THINKING ABOUT WHAT ROCKERS ARE SAYING. Think about saving America from the mess you made."
In his latest blog entry, Young said: "When I tour the USA this summer, if there is not martial law by then which would make it impossible, let's all come together and stand for American values.
"We will not be doing a political show. We will be playing the music we love for all of us to enjoy together.
"President Trump, you are invited. Come and hear our music just as you did for decades."
Young recently admitted he's worried Trump will stop him entering the US as he's been so critical of the president.
Young became a dual Canadian-US citizen in 2020.

Could Albanese and Trump's long-awaited meeting happen in Brisbane?

Your web browser is no longer supported. To improve your experience update it here The prime minister has backed a bid to host Donald Trump alongside other world leaders at the 2026 Quad summit in Brisbane . Queensland Premier David Crisafulli described it as a "golden opportunity" to bring the US president to Australia. It would also provide a chance for Anthony Albanese and the US president to finally have a formal sitdown. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has thrown his support behind hosting the 2026 Quad summit in Brisbane. (Alex Ellinghausen) The PM said he has spoken to Crisafulli and supports the pitch to have the annual foreign leaders' meeting in the Sunshine State. Albanese vowed to work with the premier to "make sure that happens". "I want to showcase this great state of Queensland to the world, particularly in the lead-up to Brisbane 2032," he said. Crisafulli told Today that his Quad bid is not just about bringing Trump and his team to Australia. "It's not about a president, it's about an economic opportunity across four nations," the premier said. "If we want things, we can't sit back, we've got to go out and get them. "I feel the way things are happening at the moment, this state is on the verge of going to the next level, and we're going to reach out and grab it." Queensland Premier David Crisafulli said he wanted to "grab" the opportunity to host the meeting. (Jamila Filippone) The diplomatic meeting, which India is scheduled to host next month, brings leaders from the US, Australia, India and Japan to discuss security and prosperity for the Indo-Pacific region. However, ongoing trade tensions could threaten to derail the four-nation sitdown after Trump threatened to double tariffs on Indian exports to the US. There are concerns Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi may pull the plug on the meeting, further delaying any meeting between Albanese and Trump. The PM had flagged the meeting, which was expected to take place in New Delhi, as a potential backdrop for his first in-person conversation with Trump. US President Donald Trump and Anthony Albanese are yet to meet following the PM's re-election. (Getty) No date has been confirmed for the Quad meeting this year or next. Albanese yesterday said he was not ruling out the chance of a Trump meeting at a UN summit in New York next month. "I'm available for a meeting with President Trump at very short notice, at any time," the PM told the media. "We'll continue to engage. We engaged with our American colleagues on a ministerial level, and I've been engaged in constructive discussions with President Trump."
