- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 08:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: "We are saying what HE said," laughs Matt Vee, referring to the one and only Neil Diamond. Matt, along with cousins Jeff and Tommy Vee, local music scene veterans and sons of the legendary Bobby Vee, join forces with their family and friends as The Killer Vees to celebrate the music from a timeless catalog. With songs like "Cracklin' Rosie," "Song Sung Blue," and "Sweet Caroline," Neil Diamond sold over 100 million records worldwide with music that became the soundtrack to one generation after another and hits spanning five decades.

"This is not a tribute show," says Tommy Vee. "This is a celebration of an amazing musical icon, one we all love and respect. We have recruited an incredible group of singers and players and have gone back to the original records," he explains, "it is all about the vocals and Matt nails it. It's a Rockin' show!"
