Thread Name: See Leonard Cohen for $253
Subject: RE: See Leonard Cohen for $253
this is for the top end orchestra or box seats. the price range for the show begins at $45.50 and range up to $253, which is much less than the scalpers prices being asked for other shows, (like the BEACON THEATER in NYC last weekend, some tickets up to $1200). I can think of no one else I would spend $253 to see, but I'd spend it for close up Leonard Cohen, here is a performer who really works and cares about how his material is presented. And think of the band, and the back up singers, and the lighting, and everything else involved in a show of this quality, and you see what you are paying for. He also deserves to get something for his appearance as well as for writing some of the best songs of any era.
