Rave: Neil Diamond

[tothebeach08]

I've never been to a concert where they played the same song more than once much less three times, even when it was the biggest hit the person had. Maybe he forgot he already played it, and then forgot again.

In Elvis' '68 Comeback Concert, Elvis broke into "Baby What You Want Me To Do" at least 3 or 4 times. It was actually pretty cool.

Neil's no Elvis.

Neil's no Elvis.

True true.

Sadly no panties were thrown on stage, but the old couple kept farting in front of us...so that was fun.

If you'd brought a lighter, you could have had a free fireworks display.

Is there such a thing as a Neil Diamond afterglow?

Yeah, that is a bit unusual. I did see it once. I saw the Sundays very first American concert and they played their whole album. Then when the crowd kept cheering for an encore, they came out and said "we don't have any other songs to play" so they just repeated the hit.

I would definitely go see Neil Diamond. I love seeing live music, and I've even enjoyed concerts by artists that I don't like. Neil Diamond isn't my favorite by any stretch but he ain't Barry Manilow either.

I like some of his songs, great pop songs...but mostly I went for the cheese and boy did he deliver the cheddar!

If so, I'm sure JL21 would have loved it.

My ex wife got free tickets. This morning I asked her how it was and she [expletive], "I was sooo pissed!" and I was like why? and she was like "He played Sweet Caroline 3 times but he didn't play hardly any of his hits, what a waste" and I'm like, well, he does consider himself a still functioning artist who does have new work he wants to play and she was like " I asked the couple behind us how much they paid and they said $130 each!! Holy [expletive] I would have been pissed to pay that and not hear Cracklin Rose"

And I said, Oh.




lol at hipster douchebag irony. like the a holes that kept playing We Built This City at the kickball game the other day.

I was pissed that there was no Cracklin' Rose.

And Sweet Caroline was ok once...not twice. I must have passed out for the 3rd time around.

I am totally creeped out by Sweet Caroline ever since he came out and said he wrote it about Caroline Kennedy---uh she was like 8 years old when it came out. EUWWWW!
