So far everything looks to be going my way ;)
So far ....
And I am pretty pleased these days
She still doesn't know
what lies ahead

But she has promised
to be the woman by my side

So far everything is good
in my world
..there were lots of invitations

Hi Guys!
Anyone going to the 02 concert? I'm taking my Mum and a friend and can't wait!
I last saw Leonard at The Royal Albert Hall 15 long years ago and am so pleased that he's back.
Has anyone recieved their tickets yet,it seems to take a long time?

Happy times

Broken man

I'd say there will be more than 100 Forum members... and our friends in London will also organize an afternoon meetup. No tickets yet...

I have got tickets not good ones but I may have mentioned that before , however no idea when they will be dispatched.
Given the way tickets were sold I will not feel comfortable until I have them firmly in my mitts.

My Manchester tick.s came a month ago but feel ripped off to see so many good seats now for sale when at 10 +2 mins I could only get rubbish

And so it must be
I will go to the concert
dressed in my suit and shaved face
with the taste of red wine on my tounge

and the seat next to me will be empty

For there was no other
than her
and she is gone

She never got to knew
what I would give her this summer
if she had only stayed

Oh, el-nico - I am sorry.
Isn't there still time to fill the empty seat?
What about the cheerful girl in the wine shop
or the one who cycles past your apartment each afternoon her hair wind-tousled,
or the quiet and seemingly serious one you sometimes see in the library?
There is surely someone who would be happy to accompany you to see and hear Leonard.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.

Oh there is time
to find another
and there are enough women
who will be by my side

But she was the one
The woman known as Dew

She was the one I bought the ticket for

I will pretend she is there
by my side
..there were lots of invitations

Is there any news regarding a new CD?
I can't wait to 'hear' what Leonard has to say in these days of 2008.

Jarkko, I think you know everything about O2 concert - so, do you know when will we get tickets from Ticketmaster? I'm little afraid because we'll travel to London 7 days before the concert :roll:

I don't mean to sound rude, honestly, but I know I am. Why not call Ticketmaster. I'm sure Jarkko is doing everything he can to keep everyone up to date, but you can imagine the workload. Is the tour schedule not posted in the main pages? I'm just offering alternatives in case Jarkko might need sleep now and again. Also, I believe Marie at 2C2B has a tour schedule. Tix are really under the iron fist of the Tix sellers, and I doubt Jarkko can hurry them along as informed as he is.
