I wasn't too impressed I've seen him much better.

Actually I dislike it when they constantly break up a concert with chit-chat as I feel it ruins the mood. Better to do the chat first then get on with the show.

I enjoyed the whole show, and I thought the stories of Neil Diamond's life story were great too. :D

I really enjoyed it ....it was nice to see about his family life etc....yes too many adverts for sure but I still enjoyed it ...I read that he has a chronic back problem from a tumour many years ago....kept losing feeling in his leg and left it and left it ....and then a tumour diagnosed ....thankfully ok ..he sang Hello from the Jazz singer which I love ...

Maxine there was a documentary on Neil's life earlier in the year where he visited his old house, by all means do a profile on the man's life but not during a concert - one or the other please!l

I agree adverts were too much - that's when you wish it was on BBC, talking of the Beeb his Electric Proms concert a yer or so back was excellent. I didn't even think his band sounded so good last night.
