Rocker Neil Young was treated for a “dangerous brain aneurysm” this week but is expected to make a full recovery, his agent said Friday.
Young underwent “minimally invasive neuroradiology” treatment Tuesday at a New York hospital and remains hospitalized.
“The procedure corrected the problem and has been characterized as a complete success with a total recovery. And resumption of normal activities by the 59-year-old rock legend is predicted for the near future,” agent Bob Merlis said in a statement.

There was a big club we used to play at in a very “touristy” town. The stage was VERY big and had black curtains all around it.
This particular night there was a big stack of risers to the right and ON the stage.
Apparently a female patron of the bar and one of the bar tenders climbed to the top of this stack of risers and “got it on” while the band was playing in front of 900 people.
