JohnF Posted June 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 He played here in Kingston a few weeks back....people that saw him said he was fantastic! Cheers Listen to his lyrics. He nails so many of the little things that usually escape us. I gues ya gotta be a little bit into the hippy poet schtick from the good old days.

JohnF Posted June 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Love em, an amazing talent!!! A little deep for the "Twisted Sister" crowd maybe lol My son the bass player says that his musician friends are all saying the Cohen Tour going on now is awesome. We have to remember that Cohen fans favoured black before it meant goth. JF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
