DVR Alert: Neil Diamond on CBS Tonight!
by Robert Diamond - August 14, 2009

In between my phone and inbox ringing off the hook all week about all of our 'Twittergate' related coverage and message board posts, I'm not going to admit to how many times I've managed to sneak in the viewing of an advance copy of the new masterfully performed, filmed and edited Neil Diamond: Hot August Night / NYC concert DVD. What I will admit to is finding it to be both one of the most theatrical concert experiences as well as one of the best live filmed shows that I've ever seen. 

I was there at Madison Square Garden for the filming of the live shows and the video captures the live feel and energy of the audience, band and performer better than I thought possible to do. 

A one-hour edit is on CBS tonight from 8-9pm EST and I highly recommend checking it out. A jukebox musical of his music is one I think that I could actually get behind!

The DVD itself featuring the full 2 hour concert is available now as well. BTW, despite our last names being the same - no relation.
