Liverpoolken, can you please give more details of Leonard singing at Florian's the day before the concert. So annoyed I missed this - my Florian's coffee was on the Monday. Did he get up next to the piano to sing? And how long for? The whole song? What a shame no one filmed it -it would have been great to see it on youtube!

Thank you sirp200, for bringing this up again. If such footage exists, NOW is the time to put it on YouTube. Let's create a buzz/frenzy over this rare moment in the cafe, instead of the unfortunate one from the other day. At any rate, it would nice to know something about this impromptu singing at Florian from the lucky few who were there.

The Cafe performance never happened. LC called in for a drink, the band struck up if I werea rich man (was this a coincidence or reference to LCs presence?) Leonard did a little singalong. That's it.

Thanks Liamberney. Were you there? Did he just sing from his table - or join the musicians? Were any of his band with him? I'd love to hear the details.

Many thanks

Hi Phil

No I wasn't there. Liverpool Ken related the story to me the night of the Venice show. hopefully, he'll pick up on this and fill out the detail (tho' if you look at some of his previous posts on this thread, you'll note there will probably be a price to pay for any information he yields)
