Leonard Cohen To Return To Triumphal 2008 Venue
Hot Press posted the following February 24, 2012:
Leonard Cohen for Dublin
Legendary troubadour set to return to Kilmainham…
Having played two landmark concerts there in 2008, Hot Press has learned that an application has been made for a licence to stage a Leonard Cohen gig again in the Royal Hospital Kilmainham. If green-lighted, which seems a formality, the Canadian legend will play Dublin in either August or September.
