Neil Diamond is my friend




"There are two kinds of people in the world...those who like Neil Diamond and those who don't"
-What About Bob

I am definitely one of those people that like him. Greg and I attended his concert in Salt Lake on Friday night. It was a delayed anniversary present. We had the greatest time...at least I did. The best part was that he played so many of my favorites like Shilo, I am I said, Love on the Rocks, You don't bring me flowers, Holly Holy, Cracklin Rose, Cherry Cherry, and Play me. Usually when I go to concerts I go home a little sad because the singer didn't do my favorites and played a lot of songs I didn't know etc. Not this concert...it was seriously the best. I would go again in a heartbeat. I was perma-grin the entire time. Greg thinks I'm quite nerdy, which is probably true. There were, however, 2 couples in front of us around our age and the men got up and danced and were so happy when "Forever in Blue Jeans" came on (the wives weren't as enthusiastic).

Did the whole crowd yell "Today!" when he sang America?

I LOVE it! Randy and I are huge Neil Diamond fans! We went to one of his concerts once and I loved it when he sang Sweet Caroline! His voice is so soothing. I am glad you guys had a nice time! Happy Anniversary!!!
