Hey, that first line is Leonard Cohen!
Thanks! (I’m currently trying to find a way to display lyrics from that song, and this was my best shot.) Here it is again, with the Leonard Cohen text added to the post:
You like Leonard Cohen? You have very good taste, Frank. Do you like any other songwriters?
I do, yes. In fact, “I love Leonard Cohen but I’m not ready to see him perform live yet” is one of my most enduring regrets
I’m sorry you never saw him perform. I regret having not seen Eddie Van Halen live so I can relate.
Yeah I saw Eddie Van Halen live a long time ago when he came to Cornell as part of something big and I was in a dorm room where there were 3 people and 4 mattresses (I’m paraphrasing) and I spent the whole concert just yelling “hey E-Dog! you’re not supposed to be this much better than David Lee Roth!” at a wall in the back of the room
I think I might have gone through some kind of crisis that night, but who knows
You know, Kurt Vonnegut was a Cornell alumnus. I bet he'd have enjoyed talking to you, Frank.
