Elvis Costello Fan Forum

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...

Cool. I'd recommend the flying saucer off Broadway, it's close to the Ryman but not too close to the Lower Broadway craziness. Maybe an hour before the show?

I've never been to the area, so that sounds good to me

Not bad at all on Bessman recap. Except, there is still one different word than megaphone for the item he used, like a cheerleader, to song that song!!! Help!!! Also known as a speaking trumpet or acoustic horn. Cool Mike....I can't say I know either of those two, but they sound appropriate. I stil...

By the way, I haven't seen it mentioned, but during the encores someone yelled out pretty clearly "Elvis, Stop boycotting Israel!" Elvis responded, sincerely, "This one goes out to you, with love." Whether or not you agree with EC's stance on Israel (and I don't), he handled it b...

Neither sound man nor light man would give up a printed setlist..."we're not allowed to give them out". We weren't close enough to the stage to see if there was one or more taped to the floor. EC has three teleprompters....one in front of the blue chair, one center stage, one at the piano...

Unbelievable show featured twelve I never saw performed before and one big rearrangement. EIWTB (BIG Sisters Clothes version) as he threw in the big bass riff throughout the rewrite. Even he himself agreed with me calling it that after the show. I hereby grant Foyle permision to share here the drea...

Great show. First time seeing him accompanied by Larkin Poe and really enjoyed it. And the songs from A Face In The Crowd were great.

If the ticket says 8, I am certain LP will hit the stage promptly. What will they play...25 minutes as they play again with E. Look for him to hit the stage 8:40/50 i'd bet as I'm certain he wants to give us more than two hours by 11:00 curfew. Enjoy NEWSFLASH!!!! TH website has 7:30 start time. So...

Some of us are meeting for a drink at Heartland Brewery near Town Hall if anyone is interested, stop by!

The article says several of the songs on IB have never been performed, but according to this site they have all been performed at least once.

See you all under the marquee at 7:00 or so, as the Town Hall NEVER opens the doors until 7:30. Enjoy friends!!!

See you then!

As a lawyer,can you explain how you get away with using a mobile phone whilst driving and not to put too English a point of view - driving on completely the wrong side of the road as well :lol: great photo , I'm getting seriously jealous now !!

Can't wait!

My wife and I are going to this show as well. Does anyone know if this will be an Imperial Bedroom show too? Or is that just the Beacon shows? The billboard on the road to Atlantic City uses the "Imperial bedroom and Other Chambers" logo, so I assume it's one of those shows. photo Mike......

Just got a Borgata ticket, 4th Row! My wife and I are going to this show as well. Does anyone know if this will be an Imperial Bedroom show too? Or is that just the Beacon shows? The billboard on the road to Atlantic City uses the "Imperial bedroom and Other Chambers" logo, so I assume it...

Got mine too:

Town Hall - Orch Right Center, 3rd row, Seat 120.

Beacon - Orch 2, 4th row, Seat 8

Neither is center orchestra, but not bad
