Row with Council scuppers plans for Cohen event
Plans for a Leonard Cohen extravaganza at Lissadell House this year have been scuppered over a row about rights of way through the estate, according to an international promoter.
The Sligo landmark was the singer's favourite venue and work was underway for a series of shows which would also celebrate Irish culture, said Rob Hallett, the impresario who coaxed Cohen out of retirement.
