After announcing that he was [planning a secret concert](http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2014/09/19/neil-diamond-planning-secret-concert-in-brooklyn/?ref=bklyner.com) in our borough, native Brooklynite Neil Diamond [said on his Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/neildiamond/photos/a.196530116513.161788.37312746513/10152786167211514/?type=1) this morning that he will [perform tonight at Erasmus Hall High School](https://twitter.com/NeilDiamond/status/516559601874268161?ref=bklyner.com) (911 Flatbush Avenue), which he attended from 1954-56.

Thanks to neighbor Brett for pointing out [this Brooklyn Vegan piece](http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2014/09/neil%5Fdiamonds%5Ff.html?ref=bklyner.com) that reported the superstar’s soon-to-be arrival in our area. Diamond, 73, who lived in Brighton Beach as a child (and was [recently expected to return to his home neighborhood](http://www.sheepsheadbites.com/2014/09/neil-diamond-will-return-home-brighton-beach-film-documentary-weekend/?ref=bklyner.com) as part of a documentary about his life, but [fans said he never showed](http://www.sheepsheadbites.com/2014/09/icymi-speed-camera-controversy-30-story-tower-coming-voorhies-neil-diamond-show-brighton-beach/?ref=bklyner.com)), will take the stage in his [first-ever Brooklyn show](http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2014/09/neil%5Fdiamond%5Fpl%5F2.html?ref=bklyner.com) at his old academic stomping grounds at 6pm tonight. Doors will open at 5pm.
