Win This : Two Tickets to see Neil Diamond

MOKB is taking it back to the old school and giving away two tickets to the upcoming Neil Diamond concert at Conseco Fieldhouse. That's right...Neil Diamond, baby! You best not be laughing suckers, Neil is peeeyamp. Four decades of smooth that has sold more than 125 million records worldwide and yielded 36 Top 40 hits.

Beyond all the classics and favorites, like Sweet Caroline and I’m a Believer, he'll be featuring and performing the new album's tracks this tour.

Is it too late?
I first saw Neil in concert 15 years ago - he was awesome - one of the top 3 concerts I've ever been to. I'm sure my mom would love for me to take her again. Next to Elvis, Neil's always been her favorite.
