PSA: Lemme tell you something, if any of you are Leonard Cohen fans, get to a show on this tour. Last night's show was....

....The best concert I've been to in years. The guy's spry, funny, engaging, and most amazingly, still going strong at 74. He hit the stage at 8:15 and with the exception of a twenty minute intermission, played until 11:15. (I checked.)

Most of the hits (just Democracy missing), and awesome music and sound. Cannot recommend highly enough.

You know you are right. He flies under the radar these days but I can see that being a real good show. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 1, 09:56 3
- His tour is well-promoted, and he played Coachella this year as a headliner -- nm - con_carne May 1, 09:59 2
  - Under the radar with respect to the current state of popular music is where I what I was getting at. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 1, 10:01 1
    - Well, when I read NWBR's post, I asked my self: "'Hits'???" -- nm - con_carne May 1, 10:03
His speech at the Rock & Roll HOF pretty much solidified this for me. -- nm - Mop (236 lbs) May 1, 09:56
