i cannot make my 40th anniversary return to the city hall in newcastle but hope to make this one, anyone know how easy it is to get there from Amsterdam via public transport?

Picked up my copy complete with download card. Single has the "large" hole so need an adapter to play the vinyl.

March 22nd Newcastle City Hall 1978, my first show, the wiki shows audience recording exists, anyone able to help me with a copy?

Watched Elvis and the Attractions many times at the City hall, my first show was March 22nd 1978, 40 years ago this week and was hooked. May try and go see my mum and get to attend this one for old times sake!

I ordered this so long ago via the Pledge web site I had forgotten about it but the signed printed arrived today

either not selling as anticipated.....I was in Vegas a few weeks ago and it was very quiet everywhere or 2, the fall out from the Wynn harassment issue?

I was hoping for a new city to see Elvis in and "celebrating" my 40th anniversary, March 1978 my first show

Not decided which weekend I can make yet but do plan to attend , David

maybe it was mock up but was Jimmy Holding a vinyl version?

Managed to get a ticket yesterday, its a Wednesday on the west coast but figured i would find a way to get there.

81 Elvis shows fr me and this was top 5, on excellent form in his anecdotes. Mexican Divorce and Toledo were special but i have a soft spot for Mr Bacarach. Also Radio Soul full version. New song Adieu Paris. Lovely venue but why do people go to these shows and talk all night! The 5 Elvis signed alb...

In Austin for the show so will aim to report back on events. Lively live scene on 6th Street and some great record shops so a good weekend so far. Its the American Grand Prix so his competition tonight is Stevie Wonder and Ricky Skaggs is also in town

Dashed across from the Town hall after First Aid kit just as everything ended unfortunately. Will be at Austin on Sunday instead. Sounds i missed a good night. ps if you have chance go see First Aid Kit on their tour next year, my first time in the Town Hall, lovely venue for the performance.

I am the First Aid Kit show at the Town Hall the same night, will stop by later and see i i can sneak in if they are still going.

Received an email my SACD is on the way

just had an email from City Winery offering tickets also to the event, Michael Dorf the founder is also on the to be honored list so obviously a few openings still exist.

I am in town that nigh but have tickets for First Aid Kit and will be seeing Elvis in Austin Sunday so will be missing this one.

Obviously many options for the list but a fellow "Geordie" Paddy from Prefab Sprout probably sneaks past our Cheryl!

Unfortunately it does seem a sign of the times, however some like Lloyd Cole for instance seems to manage to work with the "big guys" on his back catalog , fan funded releases and touring. However not an easy time for any artists at this time.

It seemed as the Universal deal fell apart that the vaults were closed. I was looking forward to the RAH orchestral shows in particular. Bowie is getting a decent set of the older material seeing light of day even if they fill up the box sets with some questionable remixes. The EDSEL/Demon releases ...

I have to admit after 20 years in the USA I slipped by saying football. I should have said American or college footbalL. I promised my self 2 things when getting citizenship 3 years ago. 1....i would never call "Football" soccer 2...i would only ever use the word Awesome to describe the gr...

got 2 tickets so looking forward to the trip, Austin is a fun place with some good record stores and there is a football game Saturday

anyone got a pass code for presale?

hint 14.5, the image is Mr Pastry, a reference to the same character in the web site from the Spinning Song Book farewell?

Nice to see the last line of the recent web site update "teasing" more new material. Ticket holders may also purchase the new Lupe-O-Tone 10” vinyl release, “Bright Blue Times”, a very limited edition, available only at “Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers” dates. Limited stock on-sale e...

first eBay copy selling close to $80

great show and managed to get a copy of the Bright Blue Times ( 1 per customer) but still a few available at the end of the show. Only complaint was it seemed 1/3 of the crowd were more interested in chatting than listening
