Grammy Award winner Neil Diamond is celebrating his unparalleled career spanning 50 years with his current 50 Year Anniversary World Tour, and when the music icon performs the final U.S. show of the tour at the Fabulous Forum on Saturday, August 12, it will mark the 35th concert at the Forum for the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, the most any artist has ever performed at the legendary venue.

I could go to a James Taylor show just for the stories. The man is a part of music history and is still around to tell the tales of how it all began.

"Paul went away and started the label and George went away and wrote the song”, he said.
