PORTLAND,  Dec 8
-------------------------------------
* Democracy
I captured the whole song but I had to end it abruptly in order to multi-task. Because Leonard Cohen was so well received abroad, I wanted him to know the "USA Loves You". So I had a sign made up saying that. When Democracy was ending I wanted to hoist the sign with the aid of Leslie/lioness. The concert vidoegrapher turned his camera around and took a shot of my sign which was displayed on the screens to the cheers of the audience
