Thanks Jarkko and Marie!

Discovering and loving your love story Ann-Christin! Seems like very special times are lying ahead for both of you!Womanfromaroom wrote:Greg and me just managed to get second row, centre section seats for Perth, GREAT – and it went REALLY smoothly, too (although I WAS nervous beforehand - speak of getting too old for all this!)!! Thank you, Jarkko, Marie and all you other people involved for making this possible!
I also thought I’d re-post a Forum link to Greg’s review of the first concert Leonard gave in Perth on his extended tour, i.e. the 2009 one at the Sandalford winery, just to get people in the mood again, as it were. Back then, Greg of course thought that Cohen “will not pass this way again”. Well, little did Greg, little did we all now! And mind you, for someone like Greg who has seen almost everyone in concert – you name them, apart from Elvis, to his eternal regret! – saying “the best concert I have ever seen in my life”, is quite something. And I think he will still happily agree with that statement, more than four years later.
And by the way, the German he mentions in this text is not me – but my friendship with Greg, which later turned into love and into me moving over to Perth permanently in less than four weeks’ time, really has had its origin in me reading his review back then, in that I remember it vividly as the first time I became aware of him. So that we will go to see Leonard together in November now – and in fantastic seats at an apparently great venue like the Perth Arena, not like the dreadful NIB stadium where we went to attend Leonard’s second Perth performance with a group of friends in November 2010 -, really is extra-, extra-special.
So, anyway, here is the link to that review once more!

Thank you for your kind words, frankandme! Yes, I agree with you in every respect - VERY special times for us, or rather, for all of us being able to attend the new Oz / NZ concerts; and thanks to Jarkko and everyone else involved, I think the first rows of every venue will be filled with happy Forum members, too!
