Big Announcement (July 22)

[Stamatina]

I HAVE IT!.....

Leonard is hiring the new ship Queen Mary 2 for a special week's cruise for all the members of the Forum who joined up to a minute ago. The first 3056 (number of berths) who apply to Ticketmaster (password AVAST BEHIND) will be able to buy tickets at the knockdown price of 100 of whatever your currency is. Leonard and the band will then put on a show every night for an hour or so and then we will all get totally ratted on a free ration of rum. Jarkko is going to be captain, with the rest of the moderators as the crew (to make sure we don't end up sailing in every decreasing circles round the Bay of Biscay). I am still working out the rest of the details and will get back to you when I find out how to untie this white thing they are wrapping round me...... have patience........

Eve,

I want at least one ration of exactly what you are taking! I just LOVE your visions...

Ok, now, why did Jarkko have to do this? I'm dying of curiosity (lol, curiosity killed the cat and unfortunately I meow often ).
What does "week 30" mean?

(n.b. extremist word removed from lyric, for forum moderation purposes!)

Yes, don't mention the war! It is bad enough having to wait for the "big announcement"; nothing left to do when you're begging for a crumb, nothing left to do when you've got to go on waiting, waiting for the miracle to come...

Stamatina - week 30 in 2009 is 20 - 26 July .... next week ...
what is the weather forecast? where will it be raining? (Leonard is wonderful in the rain! - remember Weybridge in July 09).
.. it rains in my garden ... a great place to sing and skip in the moonlight. The United Heart Touring Company are welcome anytime and I'll post the video. [And Leonard can have my warm scarf].

[Henning]

Liverpoolken and Lizzytish will announce their marriage. What a Lili-Event !

[Purple Princess]

Perhaps another competition for who guesses correctly what the "Big Announcement" is Jarkko??

[Chema]

I hope it's a great and unforgettable new... The expectation is big!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[John Etherington]

Maybe mdidier and efc have joined the Democrats!

[vanvliet]

The REAL Leonard Cohen is about to announce a world tour, having just left a Buddhist monastery last week. The tribute band that has been touring were merely an appetizer!

[tinderella]

Maybe Leonard has asked to stay at my house while he is here in Dublin.

[Mazal]

I'm guessing it's the announcement of the continuation of the Tour in 2010...
& hoping for another concert in Amsterdam!

[sallyp]

This is cruel!!!!! Just hope it is something good - you wouldn't wind us up otherwise, would you?

[A.Sukitu]

The Big Announcement will be that because it has been such fun that they will start all over again (and do it all again) ??? please???

[Andrew McGeever]

Or maybe he won't play in Tel Aviv on September 24th.....

With respect to all who are excited (self included),

Andrew.

[MaryB]

The winner of the quiz to guess the last concert will be announced! Great sense of humor Henning!

[astranger]

hopefully it's something about a new album?
