Like Madonna, Cher and Bono, he needs only one name and they’re coming to America today. Actually, he is Neil Diamond and his tour is coming to DC on August 5. While I wrote about wanting to see the Spice Girls, I was half-joking. If someone offered me free tickets to the Spice Girls, of course I would go; however, I was not willing to pay actual money to see them. I'd pay to see Neil Diamond.
