Without trying Marc sounds like Neil; audience members can close their eyes and take a trip back in time to 1979. When their eyes open, they may believe they are hearing and seeing Neil Diamond in his prime. Marc imitates Neil's "hay day" of the late 70's.
Marc plays a Neil Diamond signature SQ-180 Epiphone guitar while using original arrangements and backing tracks which mimic the most popular and powerful versions of Neil's songs. His authentic costume includes Tux Pants with sequins, a sequin cummerbund, and shirts covered in sequin and glass beaded fringe. |
| "No one can sound or look exactly like Neil Diamond except Neil himself. I feel lucky to work at something I enjoy for a living. One of my greatest rewards is knowing I've effected someone's emotions, good or bad. If I can recreate, just for a moment the persona of Neil for an audience member and it affects them, good or bad, then the years of hard work I've put into my craft become all worth while." |

"So Good" is a line borrowed from the song Sweet Caroline (good times never seemed SO GOOD) and the 2 words an audience remembers the most after Marc's show. One of many interactive parts of the show is Marc’s preamble to the song Sweet Caroline. He never fails getting his audience to sing with him answering the line "Sweet Caroline" with "Bom, Bom, Bom" and then repeating the words "So Good" 3 times after he sings "Good times never seemed so good"
