Re: Leonard Cohen Live in Moncton, New Brunswick, May 28 2008
[quote name="Quétinbec"][quote name="Ray of Light"]I'm not a fan of live recordings, but integrity compels me to make an exception for a 76-years-old Leonard Cohen and the tiny audience he's playing to. During "I'm your man" there is so much audience lubrication that you can actually hear him back off the pimp voice in order to quell the distraction. But, it's all for naught and even in the plainest and most ordinary voice he can muster, the ladies are still screaming and losing their shit. Telegram Clint: this is how an old man is to conduct himself. [/quote] He went down on his knees in Brisbane and was skipping on and off stage like a fucking idiot. Tickets cost $180 and he played to 10,000 people for four hours. If I wasn't pretending to give a shit out of respect for the guy who gave me a ticket, I would have liked to tell Leonard that as an old man he had no right to be singing about love or a lot of other things. That he should shut the fuck up. [/quote]
