Elvis Costello Fan Forum

The public radio station here in Pittsburgh is doing a pledge drive and so they are doing a week long random list of the listeners favorite songs. Like any list of favorite songs there is no rhyme or reason, Elvis' 'Dust' from My Flame Burns Blue comes in at #710 (or somewhere in the 700's) and XTC'...

I had my iPod on shuffle and this song popped up. I forgot that I had had it.

Instead of watching the Super Bowl I went to the movies. I was excited to see 'Stan and Ollie', but when I got to the theatre I thought it was playing at 'An Acceptable Loss' was playing. The movie sounded intriguing so I decided to say. With a title like "An Acceptable Loss' I knew to had to a...

It wasn't my imagination!! I was just on the JazzFest board and other people had heard his name mentioned as being there. People are speculating that Elvis will only be taking part of the tribute to Mr. Toussaint.

My apologies. I thought I heard them say Elvis, but I checked the line up they have now posted and he's not on it. Sorry once again.

They posted a conference on Facebook of the 2019 music lineup of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Elvis will be there.

Edit - He will NOT

An episode of Malcolm Gladwell's new podcast Broken Record explains the slight difference between the genres.

I used my Amazon gift cards that I got for Kwanza to get Elvis' Look Now and the remastered White Album . Look Now is comparable with PFM, but is edgier. Of course, the Beatles have never sounded so crisp and clean. Do you think Elvis woke up one day and thought to himself, 'I think I'll write a son...

Just heard this on my public radio station. When did he do this?

Just discovered this podcast. It is well worth a listen. Here is the episode about Elvis and 'Deportees Club'

While I was in New Orleans for JazzFest I caught Los Lobos at an evening show at the House Of Blues. I was talking to a guy standing next to me who was a local drummer and he said he had done some studio work with Pete and Elvis. He said he and Pete and Los Lobos' drummer (Bugs????) had done some re...

David Byene was phenomenal. Many people said it was the best show they've seen at the fest.

Junior, the black son, is accepted to Howard, a well respected African-American college. His father is worried that if he goes he will become so immersed in black culture that when he graduates and enters white society he will not know how to interact with mainstream society like knowing popular son...

Elvis won't be there this year, but there is still an impressive line-up. I'll be there the first weekend so if anyone else is going I'd be happy to get together with you. http://www.nojazzfest.com

"Loving Vincent" is a film totally done with oil paintings. The look of the film is spectacular. It's as if Van Gogh painted the whole film: the colors were vibrant. The acting, directing, and story of the film were good. The story takes place a year after Vincent's death and a friend of h...

For those not familiar with Jesse's music (me included), here's a podcast spotlighting his music.

Just found this podcast. Thought I would find if there was an old thread. There was.

If Elvis stays in Pittsburgh for the night he can go to the Pittsburgh Penguins parade on Wednesday. Last year they had close to 400,000 people at the parade. On the other side of town tonight, Hall and Oates are playing with Tears For Fears. Both shows start at 7, but if Tears go on first Hall coul...

Saw a nice little film from the UK called Their Finest starring Gemma Atherton and Bill Nighy. It was a bit slow at times, but all in all it worked. Bill Nighy's character was pithy.
