The Files tell us that Leonard played at the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna in 1993, details here:

This looks odd to me. In the first place, the Happel is a gigantic football stadium (it's where the final of the Euro 08 tournament took place earlier this year). Now, I know Cohen is popular and all, but I don't think even he would have been playing football stadiums that year. Secondly, it's a shortened set. So, does anyone know anything more about this appearance? Was it some kind of charity show with several artists? Or a festival of sorts?
