RE: FLORENCE CONCERT START TIME.............I RECEIVED AN EMAIL CONFORMATION FROM ITALY TICKETONE THAT THE START TIME IS 9:15...I WILL STILL CHECK ON THE 31ST WHEN I AM IN FLORENCE..AND IF THERE IS A CHANGE I WILL POST( HOPEFULLY, THE COMPUTER AND I OFTEN HAVE DIFFICULTIES ). THEY ARE AWARE OF THE 7:00 MISINFORMATION...........................JEANNE

Start time for St Mark's Sq, Venice last year was also officially 9.15 pm (the show actually started a bit later because of the torrential rain which had barely stopped by showtime). The later start gives them time to clear the square and for the evening to cool off a bit too.

HI FLORENCE PEOPLE........I AM A LITTLE CONFUSED ...WHERE IS THE MEET UP? ..VIA GHIBELLINA OR 7SECOLI...................JEANNE

Jeanne - unless I've missed something, they're one and the same. Via Ghibellina is the address of 7secoli:

mabeanie1....You didn't miss a thing....I did.......I am so excited that and I think my brain has shut down...it can't stand me anymore..have not felt like this in a hundred years!!!! ....thanks......... from brainless Jeanne

Hi to the Florence group,

I phoned up today at 7 secoli bar Via Ghibellina 140 R (ca 200 meters from Piazza Santa Croce) and the lady was very friendly and said that they expect us at about 18.30 , they open at 18.00 . http://www.pub7secoli.com

I have booked +/- for 10 persons not knowing who is coming.
But it is no problem at all if we are more or less. Just say that you are from the Leonard Cohen group when you get in, they put the tables together for us.
Those who think to join, maybe just put your name on this thread, ti have an idea

Bye, see you
Andrea

Grazie Andrea,

I will be there sicuramente
I'm looking forward to see OUR MAN again
