The hunchback of Atlantic Ave
Was at Barclay Center Thursday night to see Leonard Cohen. Was disappointed by acoustics. Long long long lines for women's bathroom. Lighting in lobbies etc was dreary and depressing. no leg room in seats. overall experience of the building was not favorable. will not return any time soon. Cohen, however, was amazing. last saw him at Radio City which was a much better experience overall.
