<pre style="font-size: 9pt;"><tt>Saw him last year. Asked a fan friend why Cohen seems to tour to
Australia around twice a year (utterly unheard of) and she told me a
story about how he was royally screwed over by a manager, I think?
Which left him in great financial trouble. So he has to essentially
work his butt off in his 80s just to pay the bills.

Can't remember the details or if it was actually true.
