List of songs performed on tour 2008 - 2013

Post by Mabeanie1 »

Someone (Roman or Maarten?) had a list in spreadsheet or table form of all the songs on Leonard's setlists from 2008 showing what was performed on each night and the variations from one night to another. More than 18 months on from the last show in Auckland Dec 2013, my memory is beginning to get a bit hazy on what was played when so I wanted to find the list and maybe adapt it to show what was played at the concerts I attended and/or identify which songs I did not hear live during the tours.

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me where I can find the list.

Thanks

Hi Wendy,

Unfortunately, that's not what you are looking for (the only idea I have is to find Alan's amazing tables - but I recall only those dedicated to the latest tours).

Anyway, I'd like to share in this thread a leg-by-leg list of songs: https://copy.com/uU1LCKsyeKC7byGK (link updated)

Thanks Roman! I think that must be what I was thinking of. It certainly looks very familiar.

Looking across the whole period, it seems quite surprising to see that a total of 57 songs were performed when the overall impression might have been that the shows did not change that much from one date to another.

I believe I was lucky enough to hear all the songs listed performed live - in concert or open soundcheck - apart from Lullaby. I just happened to be on the West Coast for Joan's two appearances in Portland and Vancouver and I finally got to hear Choices at the Lucca soundcheck.

Today, three years after the Old Ideas World Tour has been started, I'd like to present a new, expanded version of that stats document (this link instead of the old one): Songs performed by Leonard Cohen in 2008–2013.
