Information from AEG today: the Mannheim concert is changing to June 28th, 2013 (from July 12)

(05. März 2013). Das Konzert von Leonard Cohen am 12. Juli in Mannheim muss aus logistischen Gründen auf den 28. Juni vorverlegt werden. Der Künstler, sein Management und der Veranstalter bedauern die dadurch entstandenen Umstände. Bereits gekaufte Tickets behalten selbstverständlich ihre Gültigkeit. Alle anderen Deutschland-Termine von Leonard Cohen bleiben bestehen.

Please keep your fingers crossed for me. I am due to return from a 4-day field trip to the UK that very day am (last year around, the channel was closed off and we were 8 hours late, which would be "fatal" now).
Still very much looking forward to Leonard performing!

This beggars belief. Other dates remain unchanged - but for how long? Makes you wonder if you can ever rely on any officially announced and on sale date any more. I hope there aren't too many people caught out with inflexible travel arrangements.

PS Still no official word re the cancellation of the second St John's show?

Did we get a full explanation why the date has changed?

A full explanation from AEG would be welcome.
Hopefully what feels like a big delay in announcing other summer dates , including the uk , will at least help us to have some , if not complete,confidence that there will be 'full stability' of those dates once announced
(unless the ' instability' is spreading behind the scenes and there won't be any uk shows!) :?
and i don't know whether it has officially been confirmed by AEG but the second st john's show has certainly been cancelled.

well imperfect for sure - but on the other hand they have brought us so far the 2008 -2013 world tours with perhaps much more to come if the life expectancy tables are accurate :D

Well I am. Now I'll have to plan how to get to Mannheim and from Mannheim to Paris for the Bruce Springsteen concert on the day after the Leonard Cohen show...

But let's see the positive aspect, at least both concerts don't take place on the same day, it could be worse... ;-)
