Margaret,Don,Cathy & Myself go see Leonard Cohen Live in Manchester on Tuesday 17th June! Tickets went onsale at 10 am this morning.He plays Manchester 4 night (+ O2 in London) I never thought i would get the chance to see him Live!2 days later i go to Benidorm for Grants Stag weekend dressed as one of The Village People.It look like being an interesting week!
I am off work today (using up my excess holiday leave before April). I have been camped by the computer waiting for tickets to go onsale........The Joys Of Silver-Surfing!Glad To Be Helping L.C.Claw Back Those Missing Millions!....
For The Record: It's 1130am & I'm feeling a bit Guilty.I know for a fact that Stuart & his lovely French Wife Katherine would love to see Great-Uncle Lenny too.But! They are in France over Easter:I dont have a contact number:I dont know if they would want to buy such expensive tickets (although Katherine has the Hots For Len Big Time!) .or even if they available that day.........Plus maybe they have also booked?
Maybe I should have bought more tickets on speck??('bound to be sold out very quick)Anyway The Deed is Done! Thanks again Don for alerting me!
10pm...I just got home.I read an email from Don.He tells me all 4 Manchester Concerts are already sold out and are being offered on Ebay at inflated prices!

Amazing song that Hallelujah. Just blows me away...good one tony.
Yes, I just got an email from browner (Momentary Madness) he managed to get a ticket- sold out rapid he said. He's playing the Royal Hospital Dublin Kilmainham, and wasn't it a long way down?
How does it happen, I can't get my head around it. There's no manager I would hand control to, not a chance man. It wouldn't matter who he/she is. I'd have a bank statement every month like everybody else, and not a cent would move with my say so.
You've got to be a bit silly Tony, what do you reckon?
Have you decided which of the Village people you'll be?
Wow! What an incredibly cheesemongous piece of footage filmed in Vapid-o-vision. Congrats on getting the ticket. I too was poised over my computer at 9 this morning and got lucky. This, I'm sure will be his last time around. I've also heard on good authority that Tom Waits is playing Ireland this July. Thank you God!
I WANT TO BE A RED INJUN!!!!!!!! (not sure about the moustache!)I guess you do have to be silly, but i hear he was ontop of a mountain being beaten by a Tibetan Monk with a cane & the time...not surprising he was distracted!Hallelujah is a song that brings the best out of people.........Ive always had a softspot for the John Cale Version........
Yes written during the Mount Baldy days. Notice how it brought the best out of me...had to dig through a lot of other stuff to get there mind.
No way! Lenny's in the UK? Where's my free tickets? Don't his people know where I am? Aaaarrrggggh I am so jealous! Make sure you enjoy it enough for me...
I like Ruffus W's version. I just wish he would'nt act like such a little Shakespearian Diva when he's live. His delivery of every cohen song is fantastic. He doesn't need to do all that. God for bid anyone take his mic away!
I find it hard to take him seriously when he is in Judy Garland-Mode But yes, voice-wise, he has something of the Jeff Buckley about him.
