I saw Neil for the first time when I was 15 during the Hot August Night tour. I fell in love with him that night and fell in love all over again Oct 10. I have waited 38 years to see him again. He was fantastic!!! I loved every selection and never wanted it to end!!! I truly enjoy Neil as you can see on his face and his actions how much he loved performing and how much he loved the crowd. I wish I could have sat closer, but just being under the same roof with him was wonderful. My boyfriend had never seen him before, and told me over and over how wonderful the show was and how much he enjoyed it. Neil please never stop!!! The minute I saw home before dark was out I bought a copy and love every single song. You still have it goin' my man and I will love you forever. Thanks for 40 years of ear sex!!!
Norva and John PS: when I got home I had to watch every DVD I had of him and the Jazz Singer too. Just can't get enough of my Neil!!!!

Neil is our hero! We want to move through my life with the love of life and passion he has, and the joy in what he does.
The concert was amazing! At the risk of plagiarizing his own song, ‘starting soft and low, like a small earthquake, and when he let go…..!” , he gave it all.
The arena was filled to capacity with people of all ages....although it definitely tipped to the older 'boomer' generation. After all, "Sweet Caroline" hit the airwaves when we were 16. To see tens of thousands of people on their feet, singing, cheering laughing.....the energy was incredible. The group sing of 'Caroline' was the most fun we’ve had ever at a concert.
The band was incredible, the rendition of "You don't bring me flowers" was touching.....especially since he and Linda Press have been singing together for 30 years.
In the end, you can clearly see that Neil Diamond is a man in love with his craft and his audience. His emotion singing his songs, and his reaction to his audience was genuine.
Given the tough times our country was in, the unbelievable rendition of “America” was encouraging and uplifting.
Keep going forever, Neil, we'll always be there!
