It’s almost two weeks until Sir Paul McCartney graces the lawn of Piedmont Park. In even more exciting news, Leonard Cohen is coming to Atlanta for a single date, Tuesday, October 20, at The Fox Theatre!

Tickets officially go on sale Monday morning but there are two ways you can buy tickets before then!

1. The Fox is offering up early ticket purchasing for “eclub”, code: 12STRING
2. The Cohen fanclub presale code: RNRHOF

I tried finding seats using each of the codes and actually ended up finding better seats (Orchestra, Row B!) with the Fox code versus the fanclub code. Best luck gambling Ticketmaster’s wonky ticket allocation methods.

This should be a pretty incredible show. Cohen is turning 75 the month before he arrives in Atlanta! There is absolutely nothing I could potentially say about Cohen that hasn’t been said a million times before. He is one of the best songwriters alive and I will be completely overwhelmed by having the opportunity to see him perform, especially in a venue as beautiful as The Fox. He has had significant impact on my life and heart and know he means equally as much to many others. Don’t miss this show.
