Neil DIAMOND now looks like Billy Bob THORTON

[UTUSN]

He sang on Hoda (KL was gone, substituted by Jenna-Shrub-ugh), hadn't seen him in years.

1. Wow! That is a big difference.

[whistler162]

2. Not bad for 73 years of age

doesn't look like he had his face lifted.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

3. for comparison =

4. This song always makes me tear up...

[pokerfan]

5. I've only seen him once

but he was amazing. He has an incredible gift of connecting with an audience. He made this 12,000 seat arena feel like an intimate night club. That said, I love the parodies, like Will Ferrell on SNL:

Neil Diamond Storytellers.

7. I'd love to see him in concert

I'm outside the US so that's unlikely to ever happen unless he happens to come to Asia. I don't think he's popular here.

10. I've seen him six times.

He's my all-time favorite concert. His band has been together with him for most of the years, and the band alone is amazing.

I've never been disappointed at a Neil concert. But why would anyone be disappoined? I mean, just look at the massive amount of material that he's got to sing!

6. He still looks pretty good

I grew up listening to his music so I'm familiar with his early work. He has a great voice.

8. Still looks good

Good for him.

9. I saw him back in the 70's.

He was playing the Pan Am Center in Las Cruces. My girl friend and I drove to Cruces, went to the ticket window and requested the two best seats left. We ended up fifth row from front, center stage. Great concert.

I wore out my first copy of 'Hot August Night'. I've often thought my dream job would be bass player for Neil Diamond.

11. Love on the Rocks, mmm mmm.

Some folks call it a Sling Blade, I said to the Cherry Cherry...mmm mmm.
