You should be sad for the reasons WHY they have the bodyguards in the first place. Just because they are a Christian band doesn’t make them exempt from weirdos…..

Yeah I actually know who your talking about because I used to listen to it a few years back. But yeah it does annoy me that christian artists have all these body guards.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Disappointed Neil Diamond fans will get a refund after attending a concert at Ohio State University in which the 67-year-old singer’s voice sounded raspy.
Some fans left the Monday concert early and others said Diamond completed the concert without mentioning anything to the audience about his voice.
A statement from Diamond, the singer of such hits as “Sweet Caroline” and “Song Sung Blue,” on Tuesday says a doctor has diagnosed acute laryngitis.
Diamond spokeswoman Eve Samuels says the singer is offering a refund to those who place a request before Sept. 5. “I haven’t let you down before and I won’t let you down now,” the singer said in an apology on his Web site.

….um…i guess at starbucks he should have went with tea.

Gee!
I thought Neil died in the car crash with Harry Chapin (or was it the ultra-light plane crash with John Denver?). Or am I confusing himn with Neil Young, who is also still alive and composed the sound track to the movie ‘Dead Man’ while he watched the movie in recording studio? Or maybe I was thinking of Shaquille O’Neal who is trying to ‘resurrect’ his career with the ‘Phoenix’ Suns. Well, I think I’m about Neiled (Nealed) out and I do believe it’s time I KNEEL (I really AM kneeling as I type) before our Awesome God and thank Him for the Forgiveness He Gives me through you guys as you read this post (in the spirit of Eph.4:30-32). I think I need more caffeine…..Starbucks…..

Ha! Neil Diamond drinks Starbucks, interesting. I know who he is, but he’s not from “my day.” I wasn’t even born when he was big!

Dave and Busters, fun place!

hmmmmmmmmmm………..you might try Ephesians 4:30-32 for that ‘bitterness’ thing! (I’m VERY familiar with this passage myself!)
oh yeah….and “back in MY day”, Neil Diamond was still just a young punk and the Beatles reigned supreme! but no! I’m not ‘bitter’ re: your youth! hahahahahaha
Oh! guess I should go back and read Ephesians again myself, eh?
Glad you finally made it to Columbus! Have a GREAT preview!!
