Hi to all my friends out there.
The time is fast approaching--and we still haven´t agreed a meet up.
So shall we say "Peters Bar",anytime from 7pm onwards?
I gather that at the venue you just turn to your left,and Peters Bar is somewhere along the water front?
I shall send a private message to Magdasto to tell her the plan.
Juan Luis--after you have finished waltzing with Magdasta--can you PLEASE waltz with me??? Though i shall probably step all over your toes as i am a dreadful dancer!! But i shall be at the concert on my own- .-and to dance with Leonards music would make my night.
So see you all very soon.
Love and kisses

So it will be Peter´s café at 7. Hope to meet you devoted Cohen fans!

I'm not the best dancer in the world, but I will endeavor )) The meeting could be at 7.00 pm. The Peter's bar is just across the Tejo River estuary. In a previous post I put a picture of the area. The bar is on the wall of the pavilion closest to the water.

Besos.

THANK YOU SO MUCH,JUAN.I just hope he plays "take this Waltz" now!!
I was reading some other concert reports where they say he cut "So long Marianne" from the set list---Please,he just CAN´T do that to us---he knows how much we all enjoy singing the chorus
So its a week today Still can´t believe it is really happening AGAIN.
So see you all at "Peters Bar".I am sure we will all be able to recognise one another--by the look of pending happiness in our eyes

I bought 6 VIP tickets front row seats for Lisbon (my wife and I and 4 friends). Unfortunately due to circumstances we will be unable to attend. I paid an insurance sum when buying the tickets to cover this eventuality however the booking company are very hard to contact and do not reply to my email. I have a horrible feeling that my 75 euro+ per ticket is likely to go down the drain. Anyone got any experience of these situations and what the best course of action is? Will the seats remain empty, will the tickets be resold. How would I know?

You're right, catswhiskers. Even I, with my bad English (is something that has no solution), I am able to sing the chorus...

Sceachgeal---that is really sad.Have you tried telephoning Blueticket.at 0351 218918409--though only open between 3pm-5pm.Other than that i have no solution to offer--but i really hope you don´t lose all that money.
Saying that i am sure there will be someone willing to buy front row tickets? I have a VIP ticket,but its row F--I would do anything to have a front row ticket
I really hope you are able to sort this out--Such a shame you can't make it here--you will be missing a wonderful concert.
Sorry i cannot be more help--and wish you luck.XXX

Hello again
I have just been checking out the Blueticket site,and the concert is only listed as being for 2 hours :shoc

I guess this is something they always write

Setting off on the first leg of my journey to Lisboa tomorrow, without laptop, so hope to meet some or all of you who posted here , either in Peter's from 7 on, or at the concert. Glad it's Lisbon, not Las Vegas...!!!

I'm very happy!

I'll be there with my wife.

We both love your songs!

bom-dia!
weather will be lovely today here in Lisboa, and I am very happy that L. Cohen is returning to my home country:)
see you all tonight.
Luis

Biting all the pencils and checking the clock: ready to leave at 2 PM, take the kids to my brother-in-law's and... Lisbon: here we go.
See you all at Peter's.
Love, magda

Still some hours to go, can't wait.
See you all soon!

My plane leaves in about 4 hours and I still can't believe I'll make it to another concert...

I'll see you all tonight.
