Anyone seen him in concert..?

 

 

Any good..? I got screwed into going tonight.. must "mingle" with work contacts. :rolly

My Mom saw him back in '76, and she thought it was friggin' awesome!

The only advice I can give you is that "Saving Silverman" is hilarious. Other than that, I dont know much about Neil.

LOL.. yea it is.

 

I know a few of his songs. I really didn't want to go tonight because we're gonna see him in Boston next week but I got veto'd..

My parents would take those tix off your hands...other than that I know nothing :P

The djs on 93.9 went last night and said they had a blast, but I guess they are paid to do that lol.

 

My mom went way back when and had a good time as well.

I think you'll find you recognize more of his songs than you think you will. I don't know what you consider a good concert but I could sit and listen to Diamond if he was just sitting on a stool on stage and singing. No "show" necessary to entertain me.

I probably know the words to 7 or 8.. I know I'll recognize a lot more than that. I've heard he's a good show so I'm sure it'll be fun.. I'd rather be at the Sox game though.

Neil rocks, seriously. You'll have a heck of a good time. Just enjoy the songs for what they are, brilliantly written Pop. Not for what other people will try and make them, silly nostalgia.

Me too.

Enjoy the Jewish Elvis.

I'm sure you'l, have a great time, Steff.

Steff - I get a lot of grief for being a Neil Diamond fan, especially from my friends. I've seen him in concert 5 times, never been disappointed. You will have a good time, no doubt. Let me know how the show is, I can't make it this time around.

I have never seen him in concert.

 

But I like his music pre-'You Dont Send Me Flowers Anymore'

He's popular with older ladies, I know that.

Who decided to take clients there? Interesting choice.

The son-in-law did... they are great seats so at least that's good. I guess we'll be able to see his sweat dripping.. oh joy. :rolly

My mom went last night and said it was awesome.

Take it for what's worth, she's kinda strange.

 

She said he did a lot of his older stuff, which was a good thing in her opinion.

LOL.. "strange". Is that code for "old".. :lol:

 

 

I think I know more of his old stuff than the new.

 

I'm sitting here trying like hell to get MLB.TV to work on this phone.. with any luck I'll be able to watch Neil and the Sox.. :pray

On his last tour, I worked the show at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. He actually puts on a pretty good show for an old timer. :lol:

Neil and the Sox.

 

Good band name.

There is no song I'd rather sing along to with a large group of people that "Sweet Caroline." Have an awesome time.

Terrible, terrible, terrible...

 

That's all I can say.

 

The seats were great, 4th row center, which meant not only could we see his sweat.. we could see his wrinkles. :puke

 

The play list was horrible.. Jim didn't know half the songs he sang. And he mixed up Sweet Caroline so bad that people only knew the chorus.

 

And R&W.. sorry but Paino Man is the best song to sing with a group, hands down.

 

I would have been seriously pissed if I had paid for the tickets.

Piano Man was incredible, but Hey Jude>Piano Man in concert.

 

You will love the Paul McCartney show.
