Re: Never thought I'd see the day...
Hi Andrew, so you grew up in Cairns ? I wonder how was the life there xx years ago. Last year me and my husband we spent a little more then a week in Clifton Beach, with a side trip to Cape Tribulation for snorkeling. The area felt very exotic and attractive for tropical vacations, although I could...

Re: Never thought I'd see the day...
I don't remember Lizzy if we met those days, sorry - it was so long ago (15+ years!) and I don't remember names, I just remember some strange details: Australians complaining lack of LC's CDs down under, a fan from Taiwan whom I asked about 3 times if he really was in Taiwan :oops: I remember the t...

Re: Never thought I'd see the day...
I never thought I'd see the day when Leonard's concerts were being promoted so heavily in provincial Australia: I'm in Cairns right now.... [...] Cheers, Andrew :) What's next after Cairns and Townsville, Leonard's concert on the beach at Cape Tribulation :shock: :shock: ? The End of the World must...

Re: Sad news: Arlene Dick has passed away
I'm sorry to read this sad news...I admired Arlene's spirits and enthusiasm, and her persistence in documenting 'everything Leonard Cohen' on the Internet. In Las Vegas 2010 when fans sang "Passing through" I was standing next to her in the first row next to the stage. Suddenly I felt her...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Oakland, March 2 & 3, 2013
We missed both: Dino's good vibes and his music, de gustibus non est disputandum but "Ain't no cure for love" without Dino's sax felt severely mutilated to me, same for "Democracy". Whatever happened between Mr. Cohen and Dino, I hope that the Master just let it go by. http://ww...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Oakland, March 2 & 3, 2013
I loved the concert, I loved that The Never Ending Last Tour is still going strong and that Mr. Cohen seems to enjoy touring. At the risk of being "anchored at the bottom of the page" I have to add however that I missed Dino Soldo. We (me and my husband) missed Dino's enthusiasm, energy a...

Re: Leonard Cohen - Multiple Nominations for 2013 JUNO Award
Being a Leonard's fan for 30+ years I always appreciated his music and perspective on life, situation with Roshi Sasaki however makes me think: 1. was 'Everybody knows' written with his Zen Master in mind ? 2. turning our backs on the story by sending it to the "Everything else" corner - ...

Re: Getting around Oakland questions
I haven't been much to this area, even if I live appr. 50 miles South, but have friends who use BART on a regular basis. It's efficient and mostly safe way of getting around the Bay Area / some stations are better to avoid (Fruitvale is one often mentioned in bad news)/. Among sites worth to see fo...

Re: VIP packages - comments
Ladies and gentelmen, I think your voice has been heard. As I noticed during Oakland presale 'fan club' option produced good seats (I got row L) while at the same time VIP packages came up with seats in same area. Which means 'fan club' buyers were free to buy tickets only or comparable tickets plu...

Re: Interview with Roscoe Beck
A touching interview. I find interesting a link between LC music and Russian music which his mother liked. Since his parents were Jews of East European origin I often wonder if this was the reason he had such enormous following in Poland at the times he was forgotten in US -- is it possible his mus...
