Have heard absolutely nothing new about the Tel Aviv concert.

It's now past the time mentioned by Fan for the concert tickets to go on sale at Lean? Any word people?

I find it odd that the tickets aren't on sale and the show's no longer on the site now...?

HC

It is sunday morning and nothing about it in Leaan web page.

think positive guys,don't jump to conclusions so fast.
we all awaiting for some news regarding to this concert
probably this week we will be able to finally get tickets for the concert i guess.
the fact that there is a sponsor tells that everything gonna be alright because who will give sponsorship and
invest a lot of funds for a concert does not going to happen?
second thing-i dont think that the producers of the concert have the interess of playing with us and keeping us in such unknowing.
i think that if the concert has cancelled,we would already knew about it.but it ain't cancelled so probably it's a matter of not very long
time until we all can buy tickets.

think that we've been waiting for leonard 24 years since his last concert in israel,so that week more or week less it's nothing.

Yes, that is what they told me in Lean last week.
Well, we just need to wait. If the delay is on Leonard's management's side, I hope they are not considering cancelling this event.
Let us be patient and hopeful.

laywer hagai strewiss denies any rumors about concert cancellation and tells that the concert
will take place and they will start selling tickets "when we will decide it's the best time"

here's a link for the article http://www.mako.co.il/music/Article-e26 ... 1080044444
and the translated http://translate.google.com/translate?p ... ry_state0=

As far as I understand, they are not up to the recent status of affairs, anyway - for example, they apparently have missed out on the whole upcoming US leg of the tour, still saying that Ramat Gan will be, if it is going to happen, the last concert of the tour!

i think we can be almost totally sure, that - this week they'll start selling tickets..
or just tell us that - next week they'll start selling tickets,
in which case we can be sure, that - next week they'll start selling,
or just tell us that - next week.....

that could be not so wrong of them - the upcoming us tour is as said the us tour - that is its a different tour so ramat gan may still be the last concert of this tour (if theres no ramalla-or beit lehem-or wherever it was concert)

sorcerer,

what the article says - at least in the very strange translation; sorry, I am not a Hebrew speaker - is this: "As noted, the appearance of Leonard Cohen is designed to exist on September 24, Ramat Gan stadium, expected to end the global impression of his round and is designed to be his last in front of an audience. At the end of rotation to Leonard Cohen-year-old retire -75 impressions animals".
So, although I do not understand the "animals" -bit at all, the overall implication seems to be that this concert, if it is still going to happen, is scheduled as the last LC-concert for a paying audience. And that, at least, is definitely wrong!

"Impressions Animals" is how the translation bot chose to translate "live performances"

Well, maybe if Fred is going to be with them, it is not even entirely wrong...

ok i looked now at the article in hebrew and realized two things: a. woman- youre right about them not being very updated.
b. google does not know to translate hebrew. here's what it really says:

ok lol lol llllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooollllllllllllllllllll sorry its just sooooooo funny!!!
i was gonna write here how it should look but then i started correcting it there - u can offer a better translation - and im just laughing my whatever body part you'd like off - it gets so funny - i especially like the part about Shumatzo ( a dear friend ) and about the new commander in the mornning llllllllloooolllllll
its so funny trying to think how it sounds to a non hebrew speaker!!
well sorry im not in the mood to start copying here the wrong parts and translate but i hope they will soon put my corrections there and you can read them. oh but one thing:
the word for animals and the word for live things (if the things are female - objects in hebrew have gender) is the same.
however im having difficulties finding the connection between performances/shows and impressions. any hebrew speaker can think of it? איך הופעה הפך לרושם?

Maybe Mr. Cohen is now doing animal impressions

i always hoped that because of his connection to Israel and judaism he might do something special in his show here - maybe it will be animal impression

Well, yes - but he has always acted like a bird on the wire, anyway!
