Re: Memorial Box Set re-scheduled to 2021

I was really looking forward to the Box Set. My hunch is that there was not enough interest to make it financially viable.

I guess I will make do with the bootleg DVD I purchased in 2019. Sigh.

When will the Tower of Song concert be released on DVD/ Blu-ray?

I am wondering when the Tower of Song concert will be released on DVD/ Blu-ray.

I understand that it will soon be shown on Canadian TV, so I'd assume that the DVD will be out soon also, but I'd sure like to circle a day on my 2018 calendar to relive that epic and moving event. Anyone know?

Re: Who will appear in the tribute concert?

It sure would be cool to see Marianne Faithfull sing Going Home. She covered that masterfully on her most recent album.

Performers at Tower of Song: Memorial Tribute to Leonard Cohen, Montreal

I am wondering when news of other performers might trickle out. I am hoping that Peter Gabriel will show up. One would think that Rufus Wainwright will be there--he's Leonard's grandchild's father, after all.. And of course we all want to see Sharon Robinson and all of Leonard's band. Perhaps David ...

Re: MONTREAL: TICKETS, LINKS AND PASSWORD

One of the VIP packages for Leonard back in the day included a handkerchief. I am going to bring that along--I will need it!

Re: MONTREAL: TICKETS, LINKS AND PASSWORD

Thank you Jarrko and Marie. I am very happy with my seats!

This will be a singular experience. It will be interesting and exciting to learn about the "much more"" to the lineup that will likely be slowly revealed in the coming weeks.
