SATURDAY LOWDOWN: Sure, It’s a Tribute Band…
… but even your black, cynical heart has to admit that Super Diamond — the Neil Diamond tribute band that will power through “Sweet Caroline,” “America, and “Cherry Cherry,” among other hits at Blue Lake Casino on Saturday night — looks like a wholesome joygasm. Ba ba ba!
But, of course, if you’re not sold you have a whole Lowdown-worth of options you can scroll below.
