Re: Cap Roig - Help with Venue Number ?

thanks !

alas there seems to be no phone number with the venue itself, no way to contact anyone to discuss it.

have emailed them twice but no replies .

ticket agencies just hang up the phone when they hear an english voice.


hope u got your tickets though !

Cap Roig - Help with Venue Number ?

Hi

Can anyone help with this ? We have the ticket office number, but are trying to contact the venue before then to ask about disabled tickets. Cannot find any venue phone numbers anywhere !

Can anyone help ?

Also, what is the Spanish for 'disabled seating' ?

thanks !

Re: Concerts in Spain (several threads merged)

Many thanks for this. Can anyone who has been there tell us why the yellow seats [though apparently closer than many others] are so 'cheap' ?

Also, will they use videoscreeens at this venue do you think, based on past
experience ?


Thanks so much

Re: Concerts in Spain (several threads merged)

Thanks Yes they are scary prices !! Can anyone help by guiding us to a way of seeing where each colour of seat is, and if possible, offering their own opinion of those colours ? I think I would financially have to sit further back but being deaf, would probably risk not hearing much at all :? Thanks...

I wonder if his handler was the same person who ensured the DVD would not be captioned ? 8)

Re: "Leonard Cohen Live in London" - DVD & 2CD - April 2009

Jarkko, please for G...'s sake ensure that they subtitle the Blue Ray. And friends on this site, if you too feel that our hearing impaired friends should be able to access the performances, and feel that this is what leonard himself would want, please raise your voices here. Being excluded with this...

Re: Summer tour: speculations (several threads merged)

I really sympathise with Jarrko - much as we might need to know dates for planning etc, it's either he tells us nothing until they are all ready, and some are already sold out, or he has to react each time a venue steps out of line and goes ahead with an announcement, in order to help us. I would im...

Re: "Leonard Cohen Live in London" - DVD & 2CD - April 2009

a 1 hour canadian tv version....hmmm i wud imagine the same tactic might be applied to other countries, so that means they may have already edited it down to sell internationally for tv - eg Uk bbc4 or something. i guess that if Leonard doesnt have the DVD subtitled for us, we could get an hours wor...

Re: "Leonard Cohen Live in London" - DVD & 2CD - April 2009

I'm concerned abt some of the dumb camerawork/editing [which was also noticeable at the live shows]... above all, the number of shots from Leonard's LHS when his hand is covering his mouth. the camera [or video-editor/whoever] shud have had one of the cameras on the other side set up ready to cut to...

This is another sharp reminder that people ought to be burning copies of as much
great youtube footage as they can find before some other disaster removes it all...

Re: New York Times interview

whilst always glad to get a leonard interview, judging from the actual quotes in the article [presumably in response to the questions actually asked], it suggests a bit of a wasted opportunity by the interviewer... though being deaf means I cant listen to the radio clips to judge if there are more i...

Re: New York, February 19, 2009 - Beacon Theatre Show

yes indeed :)

i wonder if the rest of the show was at this energy level - or whether it was the special nature of this particular song ??
