Berlin - Waldbühne - 30.08.2008 CANCELLED

Post by Matthias1234 »

Confirmed or not - since about two hours you can buy tickets for Leonard Cohen at the Berliner Waldbühne - 30.08.2008 - from every regular ticket office (so it doesn't seem to be a swindle, as Jarkko told for greece, see topic: Beware of scalpers/touts). I just bought my tickets. The ticket prizes are between 55-95 €. The venue is quite large, but fine, and for what more can we ask than Cohen on a late summer evening...
Thanks to Jarkko and the others for running that forum, see you in Lörrach and Berlin,
Matthias :D :D :D

Yeah! It's on sale. At http://www.eventim.de you can choose your seats from the seating plan, some minutes ago third row was still available. :D

... Then we take Berlin...!

I was just checking to which of the other nice places in Europe I could travel just to see a concert and now I find Leonard Cohen is coming here! It's so exciting ! So I hope to see some of you here in Berlin
(just got a row 2 seat... )

Waldbühne is a wonderful location. I had always wanted to be there and I once had a ticket for a Mark Knopfler show. But then he decided to crash with his motor-bike and the tour was cancelled. For those who want to take part in Berlin, I guess we will book the Event 2006 hotels again and party at the Stresemann.

Although I shouldn't check this forum during my office hours (ahem), I couldn't resist today and found out about the Berlin concert.
Booked my ticket right away :D .

Thank you, Jarkko, Adi, Matthias, Abulafia, and everyone else who posted the great news today!

I have booked 2 tickets and a hotel less then 1 km from the event.
On 6/7 I will see Lou Reed in Hamburg, so I'll see the best of 10/3 this summer :D
Now I will spend my time with praying to Bob for good weather on 30/8 in Berlin!

thanks for the info - that is settled then for a trip to have a nice week-end in summer in Berlin at the Waldbuehne and the second chance to see the master :)

(great tickets too, row 7 in the centre)

anyone booking from outside of germany, please be aware that they charge a whopping euro 34,90 on top of ticket price for 'world booking fee' or somesuch - if i had known beforehand i would have had it send to a friend with address in germany instead - but i musn't grumble (and i went with it as i didnt want to lose the ticket)

Just choose from the seat plan at eventim.de . For me, it was very easy, since the first row was still available. I think, it will be very hard to me to find some sleep this night... so excited!

Wow,

The first I do in the morning is to check the LeonardCohenforum. Sorry my english is to bad, so in german.
Mich hat es fast vom Stuhl gehauen. Leonard cohen in Berlin.
Jetzt habe ich drei Plätze in der 11. Reihe. Ja, yes man.
So come on Berlin: Leonard Cohen, Museumsinsel, Fernsehturm, Charlottenburg and so on.

Thanks @ all

O ! there is a photograph for it! I thank. Now I know, how to choose the place. Beautiful surroundings.

Do you know, what is happening when a rain is falling? is there some roof?

I am greeting
