Reykjavik Concert

Post by Guest »

I am (thanks to a friend :D ) hearing this concert for the first time, and one of the words I come up with to explain the feeling of listening to Leonard, his back up singers, band and also the reception he had from the audience at this concert is regret. Regret that I hadn't discovered him earlier and maybe would have been fortunate enough to have been to one of his concerts. But also a wonderful feeling and thankful feeling of being able to hear them now, and also still hoping he will do a concert again someday. "Dance Me' "I'm Your Man" "Passing Through" and on and on and on, different versions and all wonderful. I am still hearing old songs of LCs for the the first time, "Avalanche" "I tried to Leave You" Wither Thou Goest" also "Don't pass Me by" So there is the thrill of hearing his songs for the first time to off set the regret :D
