premise: This weekend I got to take my mother to her Mother 's Day Present - a Neil Diamond concert . ( One day , earlier this spring , we were watching TV and we saw a commercial for his tour . She said , " I would n't mind going to that , " which in Minnesota - speak means I RILLY WANNA SEE THAT but Lord knows my mom would never say that , and in her world people just do n't go to concerts . So for Mother 's Day I got her his greatest hits CD , which I was pretty sure she did n't have ON CD ( though possibly on 8-track ) , and two tickets to the concert , with the caveat that I got to go with her ( I wanted to see the show , OK ? Why was my Mother 's Day present a Neil Diamond concert ?
hypothesis: Because it was this weekend .
