Re: Elvis & The Imposters play 'Beaver Creek Hike to the Mic', Avon, CO, 16 Sept. 2017

Yeah, kinda weird. The website said it would be an Imperial Bedroom and Other Chambers show (and the MC even said that was what they were going to be doing. Odd, to say the least. Not that I'm complaining, but it was pretty much a "greatest hits" kinda show (with the "new" songs,...

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play 'Beaver Creek Hike to the Mic', Avon, CO, 16 Sept. 2017

Getting "pumped" for this Saturday's concert. It's expected to be a beautiful day in Beaver Creek. Looking forward to hiking the mountain and seeing some great music. By the way, the website confirms that this is an "Imperial Bedroom" show. Although I saw this show in its' early ...

Re: Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers - Providence, RI, Performing Arts Center, July 25 2017

Not sure how I feel about this upcoming performance. I saw the Imperial Bedroom tour in Boston last fall (when I was visiting my kids who are in college up there). Since the Beaver Creek show is near my home in Denver, I have tickets to this one, of course. It's been awhile since I saw an Imposters ...

Re:

I did attend this EC&SN show in Dallas. I've been trying to remember details since this thread started. After being a EC fan in early 80's and turning my back on him after hearing Almost Blue, this show started my return back to him. Looking back on the setlist, I wish I knew then what I know n...

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play 'Beaver Creek Hike to the Mic', Avon, CO, Sept. 2017

I was thinking of driving from Denver to see the Kansas City show, but this is practically in my backyard. The top of Centennial lift sounds like an awesome place to see a show (and, I assume, an afternoon one at that, given the 10,000 feet plus elevation).

EC & the Imposters, Imperial Bedroom Tour, Boston, October 25, 2016

Really looking forward to this show at the Orpheum Theater. Just saw some of Elvis' old "collaborators", Squeeze, at The Wilbur Theater in Boston last night (while I'm up here on a bit of a vacation). After seeing Elvis in Wichita a couple of weeks ago, I'm getting a bit spoiled on seeing ...

Re: Elvis , 'Detour', play Wichita, KS, October 8th 2106

Just a couple of observations. Those glasses would probably take away a lot from EC's usual song-enhancing live facial expressiveness. Is he trying to be Bono on 'The Fly'? So might the tight pants on those girls distract considerably from their overall skilled musical contribution both vocally and...

Re: Book promo, Boston, 17 October 2015

I'll be there. Exited to get my signed copy of the book. Hoping he pulls out a guitar to play a song (or two).

I'll be in town for a parents weekend at my daughter's college. Wonder if there is any chance of Elvis playing any "unannounced" shows at a Boston pub? That would be something.

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play Morrison, CO July 6 2015

You know, the more I think about it, the more I'm a bit disappointed with this new EC tour. I understand he is "opening" for Steely Dan (actually, billed as "Special Guest"), but to just perform for one hour is a bit short, especially for someone with the loyal fanbase and one wh...

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play Morrison, CO July 6 2015

OK, sorry to doubt you, SD. I just went back to listen to "River in Reverse". It's been so long since I listed to that album, I just thought I was listening to "Wake Me Up". Anyway, glad you got in last night. I'm new to this forum and had difficulty registering for the past day ...

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play Morrison, CO July 6 2015

Hey SupplyDavid, Glad you made it to the show last night. I was so waterlogged, I left after Elvis (hope it was worth it for everyone who stayed to see Steely Dan :? ). Quick question, I also wrote down the set list, but I could have sworn the opening number was "Wake Me Up" from Wise Up G...
