Sydney and Melbourne Get Second Leonard Cohen Shows

by Anthony Barton on October 7, 2013

in Live,News

After three sell-out tours in five years, you would think Australia would be sick of Leonard Cohen, but following the announcement of extra Sydney and Melbourne shows it seems we just can’t get enough of him.

Frontier Touring have announced  new shows at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on November 17th and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on December 9th.

Following his return to the stage in 2008 after a 15-year hiatus, it’s obvious that Cohen has the touring itch. His shows consistently receive rave reviews and they are certain to go down in the history books as some of the greatest shows ever.

Don’t miss your chance to see this legend in action! Tickets for both shows will go on sale at 9am on Wednesday October 16.

Kraftwerk Beam Down Into Melbourne Captain’s Log Stardate 0812230830pm #REVIEW

I wasn’t quite prepared for the “strap in and enjoy the ride’ experience of Kraftwerk. I hadn’t seen them live since the Big Day Out of 2003. It was still light when they came in, in the tent (not the outdoor stage) and they were wearing suits. Someone at the time commented that it was like watching four businessmen in the Qantas Club sending emails to each other.

At one point Jackson Browne commented how he “doesn’t think of himself as 75 and doesn’t think of his beard as grey” but that is what a lifetime of success will do to you. For many people in the room (including myself) who started the Jackson Browne journey with his first album in 1972, this show delivered a deep dive across the entire career.

The Beatles played six concerts in Melbourne on that one and only Australian tour of 1964, two shows each on the 15, 16 and 17th of June. The next time Paul was in Melbourne was for two Wings concerts on 13 and 14 November, 1975. There were two MCG concerts on 9 and 10 March, 1993, and two AAMI Park shows on 6 and 7 December, 2017. 21 October, 2023 at Marvel Stadium was special. It was the 13th and most likely the last time Sir Paul McCartney will ever perform in Melbourne, Australia.
