Leonard Cohen?

[TheSeventhOne]

"Leonard Cohen lines up a date at The O2, London on 21st Jun 2013, tickets £25-£75 + Fees onsale Friday from Ticketmaster, check back for any more UK dates"

Due a return?

[russycarps]

ace thanks! He was supreme at wembley earlier this year.

I dont think he'll play glastonbury. I would love it if he did, but little chance I think.

He played Night Comes On this tour for the first time in decades. It was the greatest thing I've ever seen.

Yes Please

[coma girl]

I'd love for him to play, he's one of the best live acts I've seen. I'd go to the O2 show but I won't have the time as its so close to Glastonbury.

[alframsey]

I personally would love him to return to Glastonbury, seeing him play 2008 was the first taste I'd had of listening to his material (apart from Hallelujah) and I loved every minute of it. Not sure how likely it would be though.

[themuel]

Please let this happen. He was amazing in '08 and amazing when I've seen him since. His presence on stage is quite incredible.

[Gnomicide]

I've been trying to get into The Cohen over the last few weeks.

I think I may be getting there but he's not exactly grabbing hold of me.

I prefer the stuff where his voice has dropped a few octaves - surely the more recent recordings but... I don't know... it's all a bit, dare I say, dull.

Better than Kraftwerk though.

I have never forgiven myself for missing him in 08. Would love to see him.

Just spent £870 on those O2 tickets... that's the entire family and loved one's sorted for Christmas - and my entire Christmas bonus gone. Still - all worth it

[TheSeventhOne]

Booked my ticket (a cheap seat at the very back, but considering it's row A and only £30, I can't particularly complain). Only a casual fan as it stands, but I can only imagine that he's absolutely immense live. It'll be a lovely Glasto warm-up too.

[Vanderlyle]

Hell yeah. You get 3+ hours too... and a nice interval for ice cream.

[themuel]

I just got tickets. This will be my third time. I'm so happy :-)

[grumpyhack]

Sadly, I think for contractual reasons, the BBC weren't able to show Cohen's magnificent Glasto performance. Would be great if he were able to return. Has to be one of my all-time magical Glasto performances.

move heaven and earth to get tickets to see him at the o2 then. We wont see the likes of him again in our lifetimes.

[russycarps]

I'm bloody skint but will see what I can do.

Maybe I could go and stand outside and see if I can hear it.

[lucyginger]

Unfortunately I am terrified of heights!

I shall ponder it this evening. I've only ever sat downstairs at the o2. Those upper levels seem very very VERY high!!

Might be time to be brave.

I've been in the cheap seats at the o2 before and they arent THAT bad (so long as you dont mind heights).

Yeah for sound it's ok, you don't get much of a view but if they are offering them as cheap tickets they are fine. (It gets to me when Bands offer them at full price 50/60 quid..)

(EDIT: They are rather high, might not be great if you do have a fear as they are fairly steep with it to.)

30 quid you say for the cheap seats for Neil Young, I was tempted anyway but was thinking its on the expensive side...30 quid might just do it! (What would be even better is later production seats to come out, at that price just behind the stage...Muse done that, I had front row seats behind them for 30 quid but I guess Neil would go for a more traditional stage set up?)

[lucyginger]

I haven't got one. I really don't know if I'd be able to get that high. Physically speaking! I had seats in the second from back row at Manchester MEN before and that was terrifying. Plus, I'd have to go on my own and I wouldnt want whoever was sat next to me to feel awkward cos I was being a big shandypants!!!

I'll keep an eye on it though and if I can afford lower tier and there are some nearer the time (Unlikely I know) then we'll see.

Of course if he does Glasto again then we'll all be ok!
