First comes his musicians, then: In a run enters Leonard Cohen on stage. The black hat pulled low over his face on the two video screens, the right and left of the stage are installed on the Bowling Green, you see each of his gray beard stubble. He smiles and now he has them: The man who is in 17 days, 76 years old, prefers the spa more than 9,000 listeners in its spell.
"We promise you, now give all evening," announced Leonard Cohen. And keep the promise. Even at the break after a half hours, many applaud him standing. Who asks the audience before the concert, why it is here, hear stories like these: "I then had a friend who was such a Cohen fan, whom we have heard up and down. Or this: "Suzanne was part of our life as usual hardly a song."
Clear: We are moving into age groups that the man who chases a still shiver down the spine, known from the 60s. go with younger, persuaded by mothers or fathers to know a little bit, just a few of Cohen songs, but can also capture the atmosphere of this concert and the charisma of this man that runs after every good piece of his hat, and on the ability of its colleagues can enjoy incredible on stage.
Perpetual melancholic
Joy: A word, not every think at first of Leonard Cohen. The perpetual melancholy, the sad, sad making other singers, she has overlooked on Friday evening. He is also looking forward to the atmosphere, about "that we be here together on such a beautiful place can, in as much chaos in the world."
At seven clock Cohen starts with "Dance Me to the end of love". Since most onlookers were on the William Street and told the guests at the reception of Hesse lottery before the Kurhaus colonnade had their "Suzanne" experiences and were pleased with the organizers of the concert-perfect weather. Where: Ex-Prime Minister Roland Koch, ZDF-Sport man Rolf Töpperwien, Offenbacher Kickers-President Dieter Müller and Mayor Helmut Müller with his son Leon, who has the almost-namesake Leonard is not sooo much, but bravely calling. Maybe he can be captured by Leonard Cohen on this beautiful evening on the bowling green.
I for one appreciate everything in one concert thread because I often forget to check on tour news at all the different portals like Joey's flickr site, Joey's Notes from the Road, Facebook, Twitter, etc but I do look at the forum several times a day. Also, it's kind of a historical record. Five, ten, twenty years from now, we can look right here and know "the pulse" of the shows- without having to cross-reference different sites like Tumblr and Twitter which may or may not exist in the future. I also like the tweets, because sometimes there is a gem there- I never would have known about Al Pacino being at the Florence show the other day if it were not for Twitter...Mabeanie1 wrote:I love Joey's Notes from the Road but I am wondering: is it really necessary to cut and paste to the concert report threads? I am sure that I am not the only one who regularly checks out the Notes themselves.
Personally I would like to leave these threads for people's reports from the concerts - and of course any video/ photo links for those who are interested.
