The band canceled the final seven dates of their summer European tour<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/neil-young-and-crazy-horse-cancel-remaining-european-tour-dates-20130808\"> earlier this month<\/a> due to the injury.<\/p>\n<p id=\"yui_3_9_1_17_1377062705917_425\">&#8220;We  are sorry for any inconvenience this causes to our fans or the  festivals where we were scheduled to appear,&#8221; the band has said in a  statement. &#8220;As you must be, we too are disappointed at this unfortunate  turn of events.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"yui_3_9_1_17_1377062705917_385\">Neil Young and Crazy Horse have been on tour since August 2012. They were booked to play the Capitol Theater in <span id=\"lw_1376945615595_17\" class=\"yshortcuts cs4-ndcor\">Port Chester, New York<\/span> as well as the Greenbelt Harvest Picnic in Dundas, Ontario, the <span id=\"lw_1376945615595_20\" class=\"yshortcuts cs4-ndcor\">Ottawa Folk Festival<\/span> in Ottawa, Ontario and the Interlocken Folk Festival in Arrington, Virginia.<\/p>\n<p id=\"yui_3_9_1_17_1377062705917_430\">Earlier this year, Sampedro told <em>Rolling Stone<\/em> that he felt this tour might be their final outing. &#8220;I just think once  it stops, it&#8217;s going to be kind of hard to get it rolling again,&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/crazy-horse-guitarist-frank-poncho-sampedro-my-gut-tells-me-this-is-the-last-tour-20130417\">he said<\/a>.  &#8220;My gut tells me this is really the last tour. I hate saying their  ages, but I&#8217;m 64 and I&#8217;m the baby of the band. I love playing and we&#8217;re  playing as good as we ever did, but at any time, something could go down  with any one of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Neil Young and Crazy Horse&#8217;s last show was  August 7th in Oslo, Norway.
