Elvis Costello Fan Forum

James at Brixton Academy on Friday 27th April. They're a band I never used to really like until Mrs VG persuaded me to see them. I saw them 6 times from 1998. We went to their farewell tour 6 years ago and Mrs VG was incredibly excited to see they've reformed. So there I was at 9am this morning on t...

Sorry to hear about your cat WSS. My mum was distraught when her cat had to be put down 18 months ago. It was the right decision as the cat had a tumour and would have no quality of life as the tumour was rapidly spreading. She's still upset about it now and she had her cat for about 16 years too. I...

http://www.notes.co.il/boaz/user/arctic-monkeys.jpg I'd put this away for a while, then threw it on this morning. Massively hyped and rightly so. I really should have included this one on my 2006 top ten, but probably shied away from doing so just because of all the mainstream attention it received...

Hit The Road Jack - Percy Mayfield

And still no pictures of the bambinos. Are they that ugly? Cursed with mega-noses? Spitters? Colicky howlers? Or cooties...Are you still free of them MDM :lol: Maybe one of the twins is shy and anti-social and just wants to stay in and suck his thumb . I know how he feels. But John - you're the wil...

Stephen Merchant makes me laugh more than Ricky Gervais. And his character makes me cringe more than Ricky's.

I think he's Homer to Ricky's Bart.

I've just booked for me and 13 of my mates to see The Jamm on Friday 2nd March. It should be a nice quiet night out!

Heart Of Glass - Blondie

Dark End Of The Street - James Carr

. And then later that afternoon Elvis Costello and Diana Krall (holding their kid) walked by.

Have they misplaced one of them?

Don't be so sure that Gordon Brown will be next Leader/Prime Minister. It also peeves me when people say what a good Chancellor he's been.

Talking in The Dark - EC

I got an email from her last night saying she's in labour and to keep my fingers crossed for an easy delivery. Which I am doing (which explains my dogdy tpynig).

Good luck Misha!

Skirt - The Jam. A bootleg of demos from c1980/1981 which also has them playing Wasteland which I don't think they ever played in concert. Did they not? Odd, cos for me it's a top fiver. I always find it thoroughly bizarre when a band/artist pens a classic and doesn't play it. Is it cos they don't ...

The Drogba/Ballack free kick fiasco summed Chelsea's afternoon up. Watched the Arsenal/Man U game. Superb goal by Henry. It's a shame for Arsenal though that Van Persie will be out for around 6 weeks. Man U have got some tough fixtures to play so it's by no means a foregone conclusion. Some of it de...

Waiting For The Great Leap Forwards - Billy Bragg (or The Reassuringly Honest Billy Bragg as he is known in my house )

No Woman No Cry - Bob Marley

The Day We Caught The Train - Ocean Colour Scene

It works as a scarecrow in our garden.

Is anybody else picking the wrong captain in their Fantasy Football Team?

Sex'n'Drugs'n'Rock'n'Roll - Ian Dury & The Blockheads

Fair enough - I've seen EC do spontaneous requests, just as he doesn't stick to the set list at each gig. Glenn Tilbrook is another fine example of what you saw at Ron's gig. You just shout 'em out and he'll play 'em.

Glad you enjoyed the show.

C'mon moody, give us your All Cute Starting XI!

MDM - I'll send you a picture of me in my football kit.

Otis - there are a few artists that I've seen that will respond to requests without the need of having to resort to exactly what is written on the setlist - Elvis, Billy Bragg and Glenn Tilbrook to name but three. I used to love to go to see BigCcountry and then I saw them twice on the same tour. Th...
