Like the song, but Neil Diamond is a piece of work. I haven’t been able to enjoy it after meeting the man. He played at the arena when I was running the back stage. He told me that under no circumstances were my staff to make eye contact with him. He travelled around back stage with his “wedge” of security, and I was supposed to fire anyone who looked him in the eye. Give me a break!
I would never want to meet most of these people.. that does not surprise me about him from the things i’ve read over the years! what a jerk!!
For what it’s worth they’re not all like that. Carlos Santana, Harry Connick Jr., Joe Cocker, and Bonnie Raitt are amazing.:)
That is great to hear. I love hearing the stories about guys like Johnny Depp- who when he is out with friends and they run up a $5k bill…leave a 5K tip.. or a Bill Murray who is a notoriously generous tipper.. then you hear about guys like Michael Jordan who never leaves a tip.. I figure if Neil Diamond had some regular job..he’d still be a jerk.
