NEIL DIAMOND: 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF “HOT AUGUST NIGHT”

An amazing and rare date night with my husband. We saw the one and only NEIL DIAMOND-at this historic Greek Theater in Los Angeles last night.  

But this wasn’t just any Neil Diamond concert— it was his final gig celebrating the 40th anniversary of his legendary album “Hot August Night”.  

 A special thanks to our friend Mark who helped us score tickets to this sold out show. 

We arrived about 30 minutes early and decided to walk around, check out the sites.

I’ve seen Neil three other times— and it’s always fun to people watch at his concerts.

We made it to our seats— time for a photo op.

And then the people watching continued. You just never know who you are going to see at a concert in Los Angeles…. 

Look closer,  that’s comedian David Spade. Who knew he was a Diamond fan?

Finally… the main event.  Not too shabby- 17 rows back.

The view behind us.  There were no “Tree People” this time around, but ain’t the Greek gorgeous?

Neil Diamond is killer- 71 years old and one of the best showman I’ve ever seen.
