Gina,

She should still be able to come in with you if she says she is a forum member. This has never been a problem in the past.

Hi Mary,
Is there anything officially set for something to happen between 6 and 8pm or if the forum members arrive early, are we all just going into the theatre to meet eachother if not the band? Please advise.
Thanks!
Jayne

Hi Gina and Jayne,

Hope to meet all of you at the Palace Theater. Unless someone here would like to do something different, I don't want to miss the chance of doing the meet and greet with the band. My latest recollection is that the doors to the Palace will open for will call tickets at 6:30PM. I don't know how many of us purchased presale tickets, which require the will call. I know I did, so I want to be there at 6:30PM. At 7:PM, doors open to the general public.

It looks like with few exceptions, the forum members are here in town. Since many of us work,(?), maybe getting together sooner might be a problem. What I would suggest, is that we exchange cell phone numbers via PM, so that we can connect once we get to the theater.

If anyone has any other ideas, please let us know. I know I am open to all suggestions. Meeting other forum members is such an invaluable part of the whole experience. Can't wait to meet all of you!!

Warmest regards,
Mary

Edit - Just saw that the doors for Columbus open at 6PM, not 6:30. I plan on being there at 6PM.

I had to be away from the forum for awhile but I am back and I counting down the minutes until I experience my first Leonard Cohen concert on Tuesday in Columbus! My friend Sherry and I plan to be at the theater at 6pm and we are really looking forward to meeting other forum members and hearing your stories of past Cohen concerts. MaryB I especially look forward to meeting you.
Happy Happy, Sharon

Rain, this should not be a problem. Simply tell them at the door that you are forum members. Look forward to meeting you.

Sharon, we'll finally get to meet face-to-face - yeah!

I have been on the phone the past 3 days with tech support about problems with my Internet connections. This is my second time trying to submit this post. So, if you contact me and I don't respond in a timely manner you'll know why. Now to try to submit this again :roll: .

Since I am coming up from Louisville, and will be picking up people in Cincinnati, I do not think we will be there early for the meet and greet. In case we get there early, however, is there a time frame for the meeting?

Joel (looking very forward to my first Cohen show).

Hi Joel,

First LC concert? You will be blown away! Doors open at 6PM. I know I will try to be there at that time. And welcome to the forum!
