Come on Maarten,

As Laura has already asked (way to notice details Laura) why are some of the cities you listed capitalized

?

Perhaps, CMM, was just being efficient by copying and pasting the names as originally posted i.e., some in upper case?

Arlene,

I don't believe I just did this (like I already don't spend way too much time on the forum), but because of your post, I went back to see if this is the case.
All in caps from us,
Nicosia
Las Vegas
Phoenix
Zagreg
All in caps from Maarten,
Nicosia
Las Vegas
Barcelona
Berlin
Zagreb
I could be wrong, but I didn't spot any of us putting Barcelona or Berlin in caps. So, the plot thickens. Will you now be going back to check

?

Best regards,
Mary

Actually, I don't have to go back to check. I did my audit first. I was just trying to be polite when I wrote, perhaps....

This may already have been mentioned but if he first takes manhattan then I reckon it will be BERLIN
Mike.

Re: QUIZ: where is the last concert of the tour?
I think it is BARCELONA on this 75th birthday -
My second guess, after having checked all the cities in here and learnt that a second guess is admitted:
Vilnius in Lituania (origin of Leonard's mother )

Last concert

Mount Baldy ....(near) Los Angeles. Outdoor venue anyone???

Since that was apparently his location as his pension fund was drained away..giving us this brilliant tour series. Not good for LC, but gave me a chance to see him AT LAST!

I'm still living those moments, forever.... wow.

But seriously, pleeeease come back to London, just for me. Ho Ho. I can't believe how many concerts forum Cohenites manage to get to. I've got to make it 3.....my friend went to Wetbridge, haven't heard from her yet. Probably still there, in mind if not in body!

Rock on Leonard. We love you.

As most of my potential guesses have already been taken, I am going to take a different direction and say Perth - just for Greg who travelled all the way to Red Rocks from WA for the Concert That Never Was. It'll be spring there as well ..

Wendy...splendid idea! Greg deserves another concert and Aussie's are GREAT audiences! Springtime would be perfect and I for one would definitely make the trip! Who knows....

Did I mention that my sister lives in Perth?? She tried to persuade me to visit for the show last February but it's our busiest time at work and I couldn't get the time off (our deadline was Feb 18 so I made the Beacon by the skin of my teeth!) Oct / Nov on the other hand ...

Just one teeny weeny problem: I've only got 2 days vacation left for this year. It's just about enough time to fly there and back but it's not enough for a concert as well!

Well, it is just a wild guess and since I am hoping that they will be returning to the U.S. after they leave Europe, I am guessing Atlanta. I don't think anyone has guessed that yet. Jarkko keeps reminding us that it is the end of the 2008-2009 tour. Who knows if it will continue into 2010? I think Nashville would be a fitting finale since when he started out, he was heading that way to be a country singer.

Guys,
Becoming a moderator took me one step up on the steep ladder to Leonard Cohendom, but my cruelness of not answering your questions about the capital letters in my list, was purely by accident... I happened to be away for a couple of days with my wife and children, my parents and my sister. Coming back here, I sure did enjoy the fuss about my list! But I can re-assure everyone: I'm not as cruel as Jarkko tends to be, so if I would know where the final concert would take place, I would definitely tell you all. (Now Jarkko won't tell me for sure, after reading my confession here...).

I'm still thinking about my second guess, but haven't got a clue...
Maarten

Btw: I was lazy and copy-pasted the names of the cities, that's why some were in capitals...
