I have for the time being removed Tel Aviv from the summer tour itinerary at the request of AEG Live in London. '
No more info available for the time being. Waiting for advice from Israel.

I cant believe what I just read.

Please can we all hope and pray for good news from Israel!

The representative of the Israeli producer denies the rumors about the cancellation:

אמנם בפורום מחקו את המופע, אבל ההפקה הישראלית ממהרת להכחיש ביטול או בעיות כלשהן. עו"ד חגי שטרווייס, המייצג את אמרגן המופע מרסל אברהם,
מיהר להרגיע ואמר כי אינו יודע מה עומד מאחורי ההודעה בפורום. שטרווייס אישר כי "ההופעה תתקיים בתאריך המתוכנן".

Translation:

Although the concert has been deleted in Leonard's forum, the Israeli producers deny any cancellation or problems. Lawyer Hagay Straweis, representing the producer Marsel Abraham, said he does not know what's behind the post in the forum, approving that "the show will take place as scheduled.

We will be getting more info from Israel soon, meanwhile let's not draw premature conclusions. - I am posting only info I get from AEG and the tour management.

Ah, Jarkko - you are doing it again, cruelly building up all that tension and then probably you'll tell us to "be patient"! Do you feel the power you have, driving people nuts just by some lines you post? Somehow, this feels like waiting for Christmas - or rather Hanukkah, but I am not sure that this is entirely positive and that I can really stand waiting until next week once more...

I am just following the precise instructions received from the tour management. They wanted to let everybody know that next week there will be such an announcement, and the fans will be the first ones to hear what they have to say. Another gesture of good will from the management.

Yes, sorry - of course, I fully realize that! Well, rationally speaking, anyway - but whenever it comes to Leonard-related events, unfortunately, I am only half-rational at best! So I'll just be patient and meanwhile thank you, Jarkko...

Another major announcement , life is interesting again.
Monday morning, log in to the forum and start refreshing frantically!

too much pressure... i have some far-reaching guesses, but will keep them to myself. just hope that i'm wrong.

Whatever happens, Jarkko, you are my #1 man.

Now it's official Leonard Cohen is coming to Tel aviv.
24 september in Ramat Gan Stadium.
