It's about time.

This is what I posted on the Huffington Post before I came here: Mr. Cohen is an international treasure. I cannot adequately express how much comfort and pure joy he has provided me over the years. I was a writer, artist, designer and seamstress, but am now disabled, and cannot use my hands or arms....

Thank you jarkko. Found the info. Good tickets still available, and not at ridiculous prices.

Well, it appears I am already too late for MSG show. Have checked every day for pre-sale. Cannot find links on this site. Searched Ticketmaster -- no link. Disappointed is an understatement.

I am a bit confused about how this works. I have not received an email about when tickets will go on sale. It sounds as if I am supposed to come here to buy tickets -- is that correct? My email account is so screwed up, it's possible you are sending emails, and I'm just not getting them. Anyway, I'l...

Thanks for the link. No need to worry. No blood will be shed.

Oh, stop it now. This is not in the spirit of this forum. I'm here because I love Leonard Cohen's music, and HIS spirit. Bygones?

Sharon

Not to worry. There's always one. Anyway, given that the tour is supposed to last until the end of the year, and the booked dates appear to end in October or thereabouts, perhaps Mr. Cohen is planning a few dates here in America, which has pulled Europe's ass out of the fire a couple of times. Sorry...

Please, please, please -- does anyone know if LC will be coming back to New York? I am disabled, couldn't get to the concerts he did earlier, but can now. Anybody know anything?

I, too, think this is a much simpler image than the very scholarly interpretation and some of the previous posts. A woman hanging upside down, with her gown covering her face and her genitals exposed or vulnerable, has been robbed of her dignity and humanity. She is also no longer "your woman,&...

In my opinion, Mr. Cohen really only has one theme in his music -- the juxtaposition of the sacred and the profane. He sees women as both earthly and heavenly, worship-worthy and, at times, disgusting (Closing Time, Tower of Song). I think he has used his music to explore his own conflicted feelings...

Having carnal thoughts about a 75 year old man as I watched the London concert DVD. Yes, I admit it -- just as I had carnal thoughts the first time I heard "Everybody Knows," and that booming growl vibrated through my belly. And I love the irony of my comment coming immediately after that ...

1993 or 94. Watching a movie, and over the end credits came rolling "Everybody Knows." I was transfixed -- had to know everything about the man who wrote this song, and hear everything he had ever written. I was old enough to remember "Suzanne" and "So Long Marianne," b...
