A Lesson for Concert Goers


In the spirit of wanting to learn more about Leonard Cohen's first concert tour in years, I went surfing around this morning and I stumbled upon this site.

Now, keep in mind that intelligence is measured, in part, by the ability to "classify things according to various attributes, and to see analogies and relations among concepts or things..." (link) .

Not only is there a primer on the similiarities between Springsteen and Cohen in concert but, just as funny, the visual notion that Cohen resembles Joe Namath. See for yourself.
