Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Bummer. Hope all is ok. Non life threatening - I guess that's positive... Would have been a bitchiin line up with EC there. Next year

Sweet song. Burt B + North. Loving this tune. It goes really well with the late night rain drops in SF right now. Lyrics match the release title. Will be buying this one. PAX on, peace out, and shine on.

Sturgill Simpson is doing just fine in the US. Here he is playing on the Marty Stuart Show: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0H3Htv45jFo I would love to go to this festival but it's a bit of a hassle to get to Charlotte from the west coast. I should have gone to one of the NYC shows, but opted for x-co...

Squeeze! Elvis + Squeeze / Squeeze + Elvis.. Either way... The best. Would love to see a tour with both bands + Nick Lowe.

NorCal is totally getting shafted. Seems like years that I've seen EC live in SF.

If you do a Google search " Elvis Costello tour", the tour dates show up on the Google search results page. Sweet. You don't even have to go to EC's page to find out where he is playing. So changing events to tour on the website makes sense, it doesn't necessarily cause any problems with f...

I like the new site. Wonderful Union - all their artist sites sort of look the same (template driven UI). It has to be easier to manage and a whole lot cheaper to maintain / host, etc. I just want to see more live shows posted - especially in NorCal.

Wish I was there, instead I'm here. Will be hitting the trails listening to some live EC at GAMH.

T BONE. Who doesn't love that guy? Combined with EC, life on this planet is feeling a little better.

When is the San Francisco show? Bogus.

Yeah, what is up with the Hollywood star posts. Did his kids take over his Twitter account? Sort of wild and totally random. Must be hitting the tourist circuit pretty hard in LA or something.

vintage equipment. looks like fun.

If they bring it to the US, they need Squeeze on the bill, too.

I wouldn't want to walk into that hotel/casino. Wynn is a major tool (or so it seems based on his news quotes and recent allegations.) They should move the shows to San Franciso!!

And sitting in with Gaucho at Amensia:

Bummed. Good memories, great music. Wish he never left SF.

Anything Ralph was involved in was interesting, fun and lively. I was a big fan of The Cottontails:

A real character. Lots of sad folks walking around the Mission these last few days. It's just horrible.

So sad to hear this news. When I heard he was leaving SF for Portland a few years ago, I was sad. No more Ralph in SF - smiling and playing his horns. This is just all around horrible. RIP, Ralph. Bummed out today.

konnichiwa! Not a bad photo.

Vegas - ugh. not my scene at all. I've always hated Vegas and the only reason why I've ever gone was for a work conference/trade show.... Oh, and the Brooklyn Bowl show... which was great, but I was so ready to leave the next day, I had an extra pep in my step just to get the "bleep" out o...

Wow, dedicated to EC and his music. Just curious - where will this tat reside on your body? How many tats do you have right now and does a font type really matter? Good luck finding the font. Your tat artist should knows the font. If he doesn't find a new tat dude.

Yep. I know where it is. Would like to see a "hike to mic" fest in California with EC/Imps on bill. I'm not into flying to see a show unless someone else is picking up the bill and it doesn't impact my work week schedule. Plus, flying really bites these days.

Nice setlist. Must have been a fun show... Outdoors and all. Damn. Wish I could have gone to this one. Where is the hike to mic in the Sierras?

Lyricwise, it looks like a Catholic gangster song.

That's a spotify database issue most likely. They want to join the two tracks together but have no other way to assign it or call anything else other than an album, so the tracks are together. Not knowing anything about nothing is my expertise, call it American laziness at it's best? Hell, yes!

This was a great show. I had tickets for the first show and after it, I got right back in line for the 2nd show it was that good. Worth a listen.
