    Don't hitchhike from the arena after the show.

    I saw him at the rodeo a few years ago.

    He actually puts on a good show and is quite the ladies man. He got off stage and was walking around and into the crowd while singing and all the women were about to faint.

    Never new that dude had so much machismo with the ladies.

    If chest hair could sing, it would sound like Neil Diamond.

    You'll love it Max. I'm actually jealous. :)

    The first song I ever sang was Red Red Wine. I very nearly got over my fear of karaoke on the cruise to sing Forever in Blue Jeans. He was also my first concert.

    He's a Brill Building legend....a great songwriter in his time.

    If you are sitting close enough, yell out for "Dry Your Eyes".

    Enjoy....I'm sure he will put on a great show.

    It sounds like his upcoming CD may be pretty good.

    Of the three "Neils", I can see myself most definitely going to a Neil Young concert and *probably* to a Neil Sedaka concert. But Neil Diamond?? Ooh, that one would be a tough sell but if I had seen Young and Sedaka already, why not finish out the triple crown of Neils. Yea, don't say it - I am weird and I know it. :p ;)

    Hes also a bit of a perv if you ask me.

    When he was "mingling" in the crowd, he saw this young girl, probably 12 or 13, and he says to her "youre beautiful ...come look me up in 6 years".

    you failed to mention that all the ladies swooning had to be in their 50's as well! That blonde was a plant just to make him feel better hahaha.

    But the show was definitely entertaining. I was singing along and i barely knew the words hahaha.

    I'm headed to the concert myself..going with my parents and my fiance. Probably going to try to get a buzz before I go so I can get in the sing-a-long mood. Neil is the man!

    I've seen Neil Young several times, and would consider seeing Neil Diamond, but there is no way in hell you will ever catch me at a Neil Sedaka concert!!!!
