A Very Special Announcement Coming

[jarkko]

I promised to lift the veil of secrecy and post another hint on Sunday. So, here we go!
It will be an one-time only, extra concert for the fans (and some media), with some special arrangements.
All details in the announcement tomorrow at 10 am Eastern Standard Time (including how to buy the tickets,
starting on Wednesday).

Will I have to buy a tuxedo?

Well, a BBC Four Session in the intimate setting of St Luke's in London would be rather splendid.

If it's good enough for Springsteen, Randy Newman and Van Morrison, it's good enough for Mister Cohen....

[Womanfromaroom]

Personally, I really DO hope that it is going to be in Europe somewhere; but the fact that the event will be announced officially on New York time does not make me feel too confident about this!
P.S.: But perhaps we can still have dinner, Mr. Cohen?

Looking forward to hearing tomorrow... Got a feeling it'll be in Canada or New York from whats been said... but I'll probably be completely wrong!

I always say there is no harm in asking!

[lkaufman]

jarkko, this is amazing, exciting news. can you tell us if this is in the US or Europe and if there will be precautions to prevent ticket agents/brokers from getting access to these seats?

many thanks,
lee

Me too but ... how expensive can transatlantic flights be these days????

The other good thing is that if Leonard and Jarkko are ever short of ideas for new surprises, there are plenty of good ones here

A concert in Hydra on June 13, 2009

[ladydi]

Wow...what fabulous news! I too have a feeling it will be either somewhere in the US or Canada but love Antoine's idea of Hydra in June! I have promised myself to follow Leonard anywhere (well, almost) and this will be one concert NOT to miss! How exciting!! Can't wait to read the details.

[Actually]

Ok, I think it's time to check my credit line

[ladydi]

With the media included perhaps this will be the kickoff concert for the US/Western Canada tour! What better than a concert hall filled with adoring, devoted fans of Leonard! You will probably be able to hear us 2 states (or provinces) away!

Jarkko, are you signaling a small venue where we can enjoy the full LC emotional range "close up".

Any hints on the number of tickets?

Thinking about "Special arrangements" just blows me away fathoming the possibilities!

Leonard from Montreal.....loyal fan since the sixties!

Hi ladydi,
unlikely, because then tomorrow's news would be identical to announcing the US / Western Canada tour, and Jarkko expressly said that that is not going to be the case... Personally, I love the Hydra idea!!
Ah, wouldn't you think that with Jarkko "lifting the veil of secrecy", the speculations would end? But instead, here we are again, wondering...

[ladydi]

Ah, but what fun the speculations are! I think almost everyone (with the exception of a couple of grumpy entries ) has enjoyed the last few days and had some good laughs! You are indeed correct re the tour...I forgot in a moment of excitement! Can't wait to hear the details.....
