Best gig I personally have ever seen. Intense and special. Defy anyone who went not to have been moved. Incredible.

A superb performance that night.

Best ever concert that I have attended.

It says an awful lot for a man Leonards age to go touring.He will last for ever along with his songs.Absolutely brilliant.

[Gruftputze]

Wah only 5 days left and then I'll see him!!!

Thanks for your excellent attempt to capture a part of a concert which may never be bettered

[dardun]

The best concert I have ever been at. The setting was fantastic - the music really tight and well produced. The arrangements were simple. Cohen's voice was superb - and he came across as gracious and humble. And you could hear every word! And every word was worth hearing...fantastic!

Wow this was a great gig. Shame about the late rain and the cramped conditions. I was too far away to get good photos. Also a shame the merchandise was so expensive.

When he says "...for us to be here in this moment of extreme luxury" one guy laughs really loud like he thinks LC is joking becuase it's cold and cramped. I remember hearing it on the night and you can hear it on this vid. I wonder if he felt stupid afterwards?

Anyhoo great show.

[emmano01]

an amazing three hours spent with a true legend

[happyho22]

it was beyond words...

[powmillon]

Incredible performance by a true legend. Great band too! Wonderful sound.

Only downside was the cramped grandstands and the chaotic "queuing" prior the gig.

Admittedly this was forgotten quickly once Leonard Cohen took stage and captivated all for 2 hours 40 mins of bliss.

Had I known that the security staff were letting through DSLR cameras I would never have taken my A2, which is a five year old consumer cam I tend to smuggle into gigs as it doesn't get noticed, mainly for still shots. But I would have taken my Zoom H2 and got a top grade stereo recording of the entire show, which given the sound quality, would have been worth it. Amazing - Cohen plays guitar through one California Blonde amp and it's just DI'd to the PA. It's like a coffee house rig!

p.s. if anyone bootlegged this gig, please let me know. Ta

[SpiritualOpiates]

I was there. It was amazing. I've got bootlegs of him from late 80s and early 90s and his voice doesn't sound anything as good then as it did last night... Sublime.
