Leonard Cohen in het najaar opnieuw op Belgisch podium
Leonard Cohen gaf vorige week een prachtig optreden in het Brugse Minnewaterpark, en blijkbaar is het contact met het Belgische publiek hem wel bevallen. Op 20 oktober komt hij terug naar België voor een optreden in Vorst Nationaal.
De setlist van de Canadese bard bestaat momenteel uit een fijne selectie uit zijn hoogstaande oeuvre. Klassiekers als "Bird on a Wire", "Tower of Song", "Hallelujah", "I’m your Man", "Take this Waltz" en "So long, Marianne" zullen ongetwijfeld de revue passeren.
Tickets zijn te koop vanaf donderdag om 9 uur, via http://www.sherpa.be of telefonisch op 070/252020. jns

Sherpa.be seems to be overloaded.
By refreshing the page many times, I could get 3 CAT1 seats although they were not available anymore 5 mins before.
The thing that worries me a bit is that Forest National is an old and not so good theatre regarding accoustics.
Good luck!

I don't agree with the complaint about the acoustics in Vorst Nationaal. A lot of people seem to make a fuss about it, but most concerts I saw at Vorst were quite allright.
I heard a rumour that Leonard was planning on coming to the Bozar at first. Looks like the bigger cappacity of Vorst made him change his mind. That's a bit of a shame because the sound at the Bozar is really as it should be.

Drat. My wife picked up tickets at the FNAC as soon as they opened on Thursday (10am -- the golden seats were already sold, but we got the next level down, in M, which I'm still really happy about) but didn't realize the second show had been scheduled. Looks like only the least desirable seats are still available, but I'm tempted to get tickets anyway -- if the show is anything like Amsterdam, I'll be happy to go twice.Mnemosyne9 wrote:damn, now i can get better seats on sunday but already have cat.2 tickets for monday.. can't spend more sucks.
(Despite being at the back of the crowd, we both found that concert absolutely amazing. Granted, it was our first time seeing Leonard live, but it's something we've been waiting for for years, along with most of the rest of you. I hope some day we'll have the chance to see him at a smaller venue -- on a tour like this, getting a moment to speak to the performer is next to impossible, and I'd really like to have the chance to thank LC for what his words have meant for me. Maybe I can try to get a letter to him.)
If anyone has two spare tickets to the show on the 19th in the 69€ or golden seats, I'm definitely interested. (I doubt anyone does at this point, but should it come up...)
It may be too soon for this, also, but is there interest in a meet-up before the concert?
Re: Brussels, 20 October (unconfirmed)
I still can't forgive myself for missing the Bruges gig. Luckily I now have a second chance on the twentieth. (Only after buying my tickets I came aware of the fact that a second show has been added on Sunday. This would have been easier for me to go to (traffic wise). Oh well, I've got my ticket, that's the most important ).
As for the acoustics issue: this can indeed be a problem in Vorst Nationaal. At least it was a problem at the Dylan gig I went to last year. Well, mostly for the louder songs, so that would not be a problem for LC I guess.
