Re: So Long Marianne TV series filmed on Hydra
Really enjoying the series .. great acting and seems to capture the spirit of the time. I do have one issue which I suspect forum members can resolve .. in the first four episodes, set in the early 1960s, Leonard is featured singing several songs that, of course, were not released until several year...

Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
Dear Leonard, I read somewhere that you rendered imperfections beautiful. It captures something but not all of it. All of it is beyond capture in the words of mere mortal souls. Thank you for your graciousness, humility, and humour in the face of all of your magnificent achievements. Above all, I gi...

Sun Hotel/Chelsea Hotel - The Menzingers
Although the electric version bears less of the traces to the original, this acoustic version by Greg Barnett of The Menzingers is just amazing imho!

Re: How to celebrate Leonard's 80th birthday
Well, it is a virtual bench so far - or perhaps we can call it an iBenchDem wrote:I like how we have started already
a debate if we will write "I came so far for beauty"
or just "Came so far for beauty"
when the bench is as of yet
just thin air… Dem

Re: CONCERT REPORT: London, UK , September 15, 2013
Thanks for this, John. I think on Dr Heck of Guy's site there is Joey's guide to reading the setlists. What you describe here suggests that we would have heard Night Comes On and, of course, the last two encores were it not for the curfew. We might also -- if the stars were aligned correctly :-) -- ...

Re: London 15.9.13
It was the earliest finish of any LC concert I have ever been to, a full 30 mins earlier than all the other UK concerts. I was told that the 10:45 pm curfew was because the tubes finish early on a Sunday and they need 3 to get the full crowd away from the venue. I have no idea how accurate that is ...
