"Dear Bob, Just to let you know how impressed we were by the Neil Diamond show at the Woodcoombe Sports and Social club last Saturday. It was brilliant - I've seen quite a few tribute acts, but can honestly say that I've never heard anyone sound so close to the original! A great night was had by all - we're definitely going to try and catch one of the shows on your Kent tour!" - Laura Heath
