Fresh off a three-month European tour, where he paid visits to 14 cities, Neil Young [ tickets ] has lined up a North American trek starting this fall.

The eight-week, 19-city outing kicks off Oct. 14 in St. Paul, MN, and includes several dates in Young's Canadian homeland, as well as stops in the Los Angeles area (10/30), Montreal (12/1) and New York City (12/15). All dates are included below.

The shows will feature the same band that backed Young on his recent overseas trek: Ben Keith, Rick Rosas, Chad Cromwell, Anthony Crawford and Pegi Young. Death Cab for Cutie and Everest will provide support from the tour's launch date to the Nov. 5 show in Omaha, NE; Wilco and Everest will open the remainder of the schedule, except for the Dec. 9 date in Chicago, which will not feature Wilco. Details are below.

Young continues to support last year's "Chrome Dreams II." Clocking in at more than an hour, the set includes among its 10 tracks two epics: one 18 minutes long and another 13 minutes. Young and his "The Volume Dealers" partner Niko Bolas produced.

The original "Chrome Dreams" album was scheduled for release in 1977, but was shelved. "Unfortunately, all original documentation and art for this album was lost in a fire that destroyed Neil's Malibu home in early 1978," according to Young's website.

Young announced earlier this year that he was hooking up with Sun Microsystems to produce a series of career music/video hybrid anthologies on Blu-ray Discs. The first set, which will cover Young's career from 1963-1972, reportedly will be available later this year.
