Leonard gets his day in court; but will he collect? The Guardian, The CBC, and Billboard report Leonard Cohen may never see the $9.5 million that the court ordered his former business manager Kelly Lynch to pay. As a former employer, a friend and a poetic guide, I hope he is able to get something back from the hard-to-find Lynch. I can't imagine the incredible blow to his trust he has taken, to trust someone for nearly 20 years with your dealings and to be left exposed in a time when money doesn't exactly roll in. I'll hunt her down, LC; just point me in the right direction. thanks to mk for the first pointer... 10:41:00 PM    comment []

Finally, some new music I can groove on... Have you heard or seen Hurrah Torpedo? Their cover of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" is special. See it here. They use kitchen appliances for drums... if I had a handcart, I'd offer to be their drum tech. The documentary looks like it could easily be the Scandinavian love child of Spinal Tap and The Bad News Tour... Check out a few clips and get a feel for this different band. 10:51:34 AM    comment []
