A note from the road By Amanda on February 2, 2009 12:33 PM | Permalink | Comments (4)
I greet you from the other side, of sorrow and despair with a love so vast and shattered it will reach you everywhere. No wait! I actually greet you from Goulburn.
Where I am stuck for hours (one one more to go!) due to an unfortunate public transport organisational FAIL. Well, Leonard at the Vineyard was perfect once again, but you knew that already, right? Right now I'm trying to work out some setlist issues. At the second Sydney gig (according to the setlists on the Leonard Cohen files) he did "Sisters of Mercy" instead of "Hey, That's No Way..." and "Closing Time" instead of "Democracy" BUT he definitely did all four last night and nothing else I can tell was omitted. So did we get an extra song? I will have four hours on the XPT to puzzle it out. I will do photos and whatnot if I ever get home. Haven't even spotted the Big Merino.

You will just have to believe me that it made perfect sense at the time.

Goulburn is only just up the rtoad from me, but not even Leonard could get me to go there. I think they moved the Big Merino as it was getting vandlised, or summat....
