The Today Show has announced their concert series schedule for 2008, and Neil Diamond is scheduled to perform on May 2nd. Look to hear both some old classics, and for live debuts of songs from his new album, Home Before Dark.
The Boston Red Sox / Sweet Caroline theme continues even on their season opening trip to Japan. According to Fox News, the Sox are comfortable to know that "baseball in Japan is the same as baseball at Fenway Park. They even got to hear Neil Diamond's 'Sweet Caroline' ".

A bit of additional detail regarding Neil's forthcoming album, Home Before Dark: the CD will feature a duet with Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks.
