Just relax & wait patiently for your turn, guys down there in the Pacific! (Hm, I feel that I've given this comment before

You said "Pacific", not "Australia" - does this mean that we have some hope in NZ?

Funny how "TomD", the person who wrote the first post in this thread and was so sure he was right about Cohen touring Australia in 2008, has gone very quiet since that first post.

Yup, I hope it wasn't wishful thinking on TomD's part! Or maybe he knows something we don't ... Oh well, I am filled with anticipation ...

TomD's timing and scope for the prospective next leg of the tour are not accurate, and the decisions have not yet been made.

I can't reveal my source, but I have extremely credible information that -
1 LC has signed (within past week?) to tour Australia in early 2009 - around end of Jan, beginning of Feb
2 Paul Kelly has eagerly signed as support
3 It will be a 3 hour show with LC and Paul onstage throughout
4 Melbourne & Sydney for sure, not sure of other gigs. Have no info about venues.

I'm postponing my planned overseas trip!

Didn't I say that patience will always be rewarded??

Posted: **Fri Oct 17, 2008 10:32 am**

Oh Wow! I'm already excited!

Posted: **Fri Oct 17, 2008 4:09 pm**

Fantastic prospect - I can't wait to hear the details!

What's more, to have Paul Kelly as support artist is the icing on the cake!

Cheers

Hello mates in the land of Downunder! Great news, eh?
I have never heard of Paul Kelly, but he seemed VERY INTERESTING, the video found in the link. Streight, Simple and Soulful. I liked! Hope you enjoy the concerts as much as we did!!
Cheers,

I hope that You will get Leonard to Australia. In Copenhagen we got acquainted with an australian couple! They came to Denmark to listen to the concert!! Wau! They had to fly very far away ! And they did!! I really hope that Leonard will make his tour to Aurstralia, but still as Jarkko wishes, let's wait patiently. (By the way, we hope him to come back to Finland!!)

What about New Zealand

We want him, too

Thank you for your support Paivi.

Regarding Aussies travelling, I guess it's sometimes the way it has to be, if we are to achieve various important goals without "missing the boat". I also have a friend in Brisbane who flew to Toronto just to see Leonard perform and was more than happy to do so!

There are others of us too who have done similar trips, but padded them out a bit more!
