On my recent visit to New York City I was staying in a small artist apartment near Prospect Park in Brooklyn. Lady luck was good to me that week as I found out that Leonard Cohen – one of the living legends whose music I grew up on – was performing at the Brooklyn Barclays Center. If God is performing, then us worshipers have to go.
It’s amazing how this humble relatively of age observant (orthodox?) Jewish man is still able to attract so many passionate fans. The place was practically full, and we’re talking about one of the largest stadiums in the area.
Want to see some videos of the performance?

Was terrific. At 78, Cohen’s still going strong.
