Re: Chelsea Hotel Plaque
Oops! Posted to the other thread before seeing this and realizing there were two projects in the works. This is a wonderful idea by the way.

Re: POLL: Mosaic or Video for Birthday Greeting
Why does it have to be one or the other? Are two birthday greetings not feasible?

Re: SUZANNE VEGA TO SUPPORT LEONARD AT WEYBRIDGE
The interview of Leonard Cohen by Suzanne Vega was a hoot. Seems to me that HE interviewed HER. The man's charm is second-to-none. I enjoyed this interview ALMOST as his music... well, that may be a slight stretch.

Re: Crawdaddy about Leonard
Wow. Almost reads like a redemption (reaffirmation?) of both manhood and fatherhood.
Thanks for posting this touching piece.

Re: Everybody Knows on CBC : Sunday June 7th
Don't know if this number made it to the CBC broadcast, but Michel Pagliaro did a gritty rock &* roll version of The Future that caught the rage in the tune at the same concert.

Re: "Leonard Cohen Live in London" - DVD & 2CD - April 2009
Cross-posting this because I think it bears repeating here... Before Monday night's concert I was debating whether or not I should buy the DVD of the London performance. After all, I had seen the show twice, watched excerpts of it on television, listened to the NPR broadcast, etc. BUT, I did buy it ...

Re: Find, sell or swap US/Can Tour tickets here
My friend who just saw the show in Kingston put out an SOS for 1,2, or 3 tickets to either of the Ottawa shows. Don't know what she can pay, but I will pass on any messages if anyone is still trying to sell tickets.

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Hamilton, Ontario - May 19
Here's the deal with all this talk from some critics about 'static' material and patter. When actors perform in plays they do the same material over every night, word for word, for as long as two years, depending on the show's success. What the best actors say is that this does NOT get boring or rep...
