Cohen postpones show

LEONARD Cohen fans will have to wait until next month to see the Canadian music legend in Winnipeg.

Cohen was scheduled to perform at the MTS Centre Monday but has been forced to postpone the show until April 26 due to an outbreak of flu among several band members.

"In addition to his concern for the health and well-being of his musicians, Mr. Cohen wants to ensure that fans are given nothing less than the highest-standard concert experience that he has consistently delivered to audiences worldwide for more than 300 concerts over the past five years," said a statement issued by promoter AEG Live.

Tickets for Monday's MTS Centre show will be honoured on the new date.
