Anybody else notice that Mr. Cohen's name is misspelled on the marquee at the Paramount Theater in Oakland?

Sooooooo pathetic.

To paraphrase what LC said about Ireland at the Dublin show: Oakland continues to bewilder the world. :roll:

I guess my computer page isn't showing everything because I don't find his name at all. In odd lettering, there appears to be something above [at the top of the screen], but letters are lopped off and I can't see what they are... did they put it as Cohan?

Maybe that's what it was for me, too. I'm at home now and can see it all [by scrolling]; the other times I looked, I was at work, but it seemed to just be cut off there. I'll check it on Tuesday.
