Concert update: Neil Diamond at Scottrade postponed again
Neil Diamond’s Aug. 29 concert, moved to Sept. 1o after he was diagnosed with acute laryngitis, has been moved to Nov. 2.
All tickets for the original date will be honored at the Nov. 2 date, and refunds are available at point of purchase.
In a statement, Diamond said: “I want to put on the best possible show for all my St. Louis fans so I’m following my doctor’s advice to take a little extra time to rest my voice. I want to thank my fans and assure them that their patience will be rewarded when I hit the stage.”
Kevin C. Johnson has covered the St. Louis' music and nightlife scene for the past decade. 
On Neil Diamond.com, he apologizes to the fans who attended the concert in Columbus, OH in late August because he went forward with the show despite the fact that he had a bad throat infection. The next day a complete refund was issued to everyone at that concert. So, it is good that he will take the extra time to “heal”.
