Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Yeah, i call them "special assignments."

Can it be that NO ONE went to see this? I would never miss the chance to see ANY Imposter performing less than 30 miles from my home. Sorry to see no details OR to be able to see the first DAVEY lead vocal since JACKSHIT in the same venue a few years back.

Still has three in a row to open the tour....I've got tickets to all 3 Dave You are correct, i missed that. It’s somewhat unusual these days for Elvis to do 3 nights in a row. I know I’ve commented on it in the past. Doing over 2 hours a night for 3 nights in a row is not good for Elvis’ voice. If ...

- November 27: cancelled ? (Website not available in Europe) For what it's worth, the venue website still lists the show, and Live Nation is still selling tickets (although quite a few are unsold at this point...). Well my logic is this...by cancelling both 11/11 & 11/27, there will no longer b...

http://www.superdeluxeedition.com/news/elvis-costello-the-imposters-return-with-a-new-album-look-now/#more-142307 From reading the comments, the cover art has certainly drawn some interesting views... :lol: Incidentally have the test pressings sold out at $290 a pop? I looked on the website and cou...

So we've got Neil not hearing the piano and VG mis-hearing the lyrics - methinks too many concerts at the very front getting hearing impairment for these gentlemen!! :roll: Incidentally, I think Elvis did a very passable Bowie impersonation on "It's Time" from ATUB didn't he ?? I shall re...

The piano is exactly where it should be. THANK YOU!!!! All the sudden, E has many assistant producers here ACTUALLY thinking they shall remix the track before official release. :roll: I really like the track. For the question in hand, most of you will know that I am no technical whizz, but does the...

BA - All forum members can change the title. Thanks VG...i never knew that. All forums have different ways. Wouldn't think title change of a thread possible. Thanks for clearing that up. Anyway, glad this post has indeed rung true and near to fruition. BRILLIANT NEW ALBUM coming soon. I know we are...

LOOK NOW

Question...ARE OTHER FORUM MEMBERS PERMITTED TO CHANGE MY ECFF THREAD TITLE? I know THIS is not my wording???

Maybe November 9 will be the release date nunki as a) it is a Friday also and b) if the implication is lp to be sold at the show...why would there be 4 shows where product will NOT be sold if indeed already released????

Loving that cover, it's gonna look great on 12" vinyl. Hope the vinyl stretches to include the four bonus cuts too PLEASE. WE ARE LUCKY IT IS SOON UPON US!!!

Thanks guys, hadn’t seen these. Will try to make it to city winery Great to hear that jmm, EXACTLY why i shared it here. Amazing how many of these things arise quickly and we hear about them AFTER the fact. Glad you will go. So sad as i would LOVE to see Davey sing lead. But, my little cousin is pl...

From one apostle, about a few others!! Katey and the band hit City Winery July 26. Sadly, i have a prior commitment to see my young cousin perform in Teaneck. The next night they are at the Mohegan Sun, i believe for free. and then in Verona, NY on Saturday... i think also a casino. Just because i w...

There was a great post at fbook yesterday. Actually a Costello page i think. EVERYONE was mostly trashing them. "pointless noodling" "3 good songs" "just nonsense" "nothing but dull" "pretentious nothingness, kinda like pearl jam" That one is MINE. L...

great work as always doc! THANKS!

better than RADIOHEAD i know.

you know, sometimes you just miss getting on board for a musical act that might really mean a lot to you???? whether because you are engrossed in other things, other musics or just plain out of the loop. anyways, doc and i were both in attendance for the Pleasantville Music Festival and i was certai...

How cryptic...i think he frowns on fan recordings

This thread confuses me....was there a night that included Elvis doing some kind of homage to Frank? Did it happen in 2003, or was it earlier? WAS A SONG INVOLVED or did he just discuss Sinatra? Was it a television special? If not, was it preserved on film? Has anyone seen whatever came to pass at R...

Encouraging indeed.....now: where are the NYC shows? you know...with three shows scheduled within 125 miles of nyc, maybe not here until the Spring??? Would have been nice to been informed about this...no email. Anyway, Elvis in a casino = 90 minutes, but YMMV. i believe this casino is the old TAJ ...

It’s one my favs every time they play it BA is the recording from njpac from the when I was cruel tour yours? That’s the definitive version for me you know jmm, i think initially mine was the only recording from this GREAT GREAT show. then, another surfaced a few months later if i recall correctly....

Ive seen it a few times solo as well as by the Imposters. Not sure if i ever saw Attractions play it. Gotta check...i guess it is ALWAYS played more like the EC released take than the Dave version. Okay...i checked. Seen it about ten times. Solo, Imposters, Attractions...even with Steve duo and Rude...

Nice viewpoint Neil...I'll approach this tough news today in the manner you state here. Already tackled the major dilemma, just needs to strengthen himself further via an extended restful period. A good idea indeed this hot summer.

SHATTERED, yet, prayerful! FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT brother.
