Nice instrumental segment from a modern gospel song called "Victory" by Yolanda Adams:

EC was dancing as he made his stage entrance to this song.

Recorded in Asbury Park, before the concert: https://www.cbsnews.com/video/elvis-costello-sets-the-record-straight-on-his-cancer-scare/ interview with Anthony Mason https://www.cbsnews.com/video/saturday-sessions-elvis-costello-the-imposters-perform-burnt-sugar-is-so-bitter/ Burnt Sugar Is So Bitter...

I hope the "short-term throat infection" did not affect this taping.

I'm glad I went to the Asbury Park show. This was going to be my only show.

That 2 minute instrumental ending of Photographs Can Lie is a thing of beauty. Kitten and Briana's vocal work is sublime.

Plenty o' seats still available.

I like the latest arrangement of Alison. The previous version with just EC, Briana and Kitten was a bit too screechy for me.

And yes, that was my Lisa being admonished by EC..."I'm speaking" & "there's the door" after she requested "I Want You". :D :roll: Elvis channeling his "angry young man" persona there. Wasn't your Lisa responsible for my favorite EC audience request of al...

I'll be there

Thanks for the recaps. I'm excited to hear the Look Now songs.

Thanks for the info Mike and all. See you in AP!

Jerseeeeeeeeeeey!

The pictures in the CD booklet are really interesting. But way too small for my (getting) old eyes. Probably look better on the vinyl version?

"...I'd be a hero but I can't stand the stench."

This belongs in the EC funniest line thread. So I put it there.

This festival has not historically done any official live streaming.

Anyone able to prove me wrong and find some info about this year?

Brooklyn Bowl...Brooklyn Bowl...Brooklyn Bowl...

My local radio station (WFUV) played "Days" (!) followed by "Unwanted Number" in honor of his b-day.

The official Under Lime film by "Eamon Singer" (a pseudonym for EC, right? Same name as the cover artist for Blood & Chocolate): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMKkQtH75R8 Lots of fun images, including this marquee: https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/640x480q90/924/dx0LsK.jpg

I'd love to see EC play vibes on the stage. Another Lionel Hampton?

Those ain't skin cells.

I think it’s weird hearing Elvis sing the modern day parlance of “he’s woke”. Ha! I thought the same thing until I checked our unofficial lyrics sheet (thanks Nunki/ANCT): http://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php/Under_Lime "We know that he's desperate and we know that he's broke" Mak...

Steve's part is buried, no doubt. It cannot be intentional.

Elvis and/or associates, please look into this.
