Absolutely amazing! A unique artist. In a class of his own! Could have watched him all night!

Jane Travill
I was at the front and the whole set was excellent, this is the first time I have ever been to the front it was well worth it. What a legend!

I was there at Glastonbury and I thought Neil was terrific. When the music broke down in the middle Neil and the band showed what true pros they are and took it all in their stride. The atmosphere in the crowd when Neil performed Sweet Caroline is something I shall never forget

Simon Wall
Saw the big D at Glasto. I was particularly looking forward to rocking out to Sweet Caroline and he didnt disappoint saving the classic till the end of his set. The crowd (including me) loved it. Helped of course by lots of cider and sunshine.

The atmosphere at the Glastonbury performance was brilliant. Young, not so young, and down right old all joining in with him, and knowing all the words!! That's World Class!

I have seen Neil at all his concerts since Woburn 1977, he only gets better..!! the Glastonbury show was a triumph, he puts a lot of the younger performers in the shade, his musicianship and profesionalism shines through, I believe he "converted" a lot of the younger fans there, we look forward to his return...!!!

The Glastonbury atmosphere was fantastic in the build up to him coming on stage - the crowds were really up for it, he may be an old timer - but he can still entertain big time - this was the highlight of the festival for me.

I have seen Neil Diamond live four times. It has always been a wonderful experience. I loved the music, he was great, a true star.
