Leonard Cohen Opens USA Tour In City Of Sunshine
At this point, all that can be gathered from the earliest reviews, emails, and tweets from those attending last night’s first show of the final concert series of the Leonard Cohen World Tour in Fort Lauderdale, Florida can be accurately summarized by this contemporaneous tweet:
Laura_Whalen Mesmerized, watching Leonard Cohen LIVE! Is this really happening? Wow…..
Happily, two videos were available almost immediately after the concert was finished, for which the videographer, dahliabendavid, deserves special thanks from those of us in the cyber-audience.
“Suzanne” is incomplete but “Hallelujah” (in which, incidentally, Mr Cohen notes that he did not travel to the “City Of Sunshine” to mislead members of the audience) can be viewed in its entirety. Both are shot from a distance and from a severely acute angle, but both, especially “Hallelujah,” offer good audio and can be watched enjoyably.
