lynblu Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 yeah saw him in 1999 'in the round', was a fantastic show & altho he was looking greyer & a little older (aren't we all) he was on fine form & really worked the crowd ...............

ptrA Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Neil Diamond has been to the Arena at least three times. The best show, was on the round rotating stage. Last two show's were on the normal stage. Didn't come to Sheffield on his last tour. Always over two hours on stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last two show's were on the normal stage. Didn't come to Sheffield on his last tour. Always over two hours on stage. On a three City "Only" tour, we booked to see him at the KC Stadium. The tour was a sell out and they added the Arena. No ticket exchanges. It rained all night (lucky us, under cover) it was a good show. Spoilt only by the fact we could have seen it at home without the travel etc. Oh it was cheaper in sheffield too.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, I also just now noticed the above post. I must say that I've NEVER heard of Neil Diamond having been 'out of it' ...as in drugs, alcohol do you mean ...? This man has no such reputation and is such a stickler for sobriety and professionalism that I really do find this hard to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xenia Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 When he was here in 1999 he may have appeared out of it due to back pain. I was having treatment for a bad back in a private hospital in Sheffield and as i waited in the reception Neil came in in obvious agony. He was treated by the physios and given a morphine based treatment so he could do the Arena that night. I just now rose from the dead ...haven't been on the forum since I died a couple of years ago!

truman Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Where is the 'arena' located and how big is it? I live in Australia and probably wouldn't be too much wiser if told but I'm still curious. You may find this useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
