I like the first song, it is really long though :-) It's like three of Elvis' earlier songs put together end to end! Epic rock rules though...gimme a nice rocking Queen song or a really long Elton John song any day. I can hear the EC influence in the lyrics of the second song. They're pretty great a...

That's the rushed signature of "Elvis Costello"...if he actually has time and a table, he writes really nicely and sometimes draws pictures for you :-) If he isn't in the mood or if there are tons of people, all you get is a scribble. My most cherished autographs from him are when he's had...

Rockwells

Just saw another band named "the Rockwells" that are playing the Hi-Tone in Memphis on April 7th before Elvis plays...now it's a race between your two bands as to who gets signed to the big label first so you can keep the name! Maybe they can be the Rockwells, UK :-)

Twas able to get some tickets thank goodness...otherwise I'd have been stuck with a trip to Memphis and no Elvis and that would have been sad! So, yes...and I'll keep y'all posted if I hear of any extra tix.

Watch Your Step

I heard "Watch Your Step" every day on the cruise ship because of the signs posted outside the doorways! :-) I see lots of songs as I go through the day. When I'm at work charging people's credit cards I get "Attach me to your credit card and then you can undress me" stuck in my ...

Going to Memphis!

I'm coming in from Northern California, and I have my airline tickets yet no venue tickets yet (except by the grace of graceland!). I hope to see you all at the shows! Friday and Saturday nights! PM me if you want to meet up with me and another fan from So. California!

Santa Rosa Lovliness

It was a wonderful show! Elvis finally gave the come hither cue so we *had* to go down to the front lest he think we don't appreciate him! Those people telling people to sit were clueless to the ways of Elvis. It was like that in SF too...people standing when they were supposed to be sitting and the...

North Tour winding down

Yeah, what Jeanlass said!! :-) It was a wonderous show! The best of the four I attended! I'd say I liked Santa Rosa, Vancouver then San Francisco and finally Seattle in that order. Hope you all enjoyed as well!!

Boots and Gay Marriage :-)

Were they the alligator boots? Dark Green, pointy tips alligator print?? He wore those last time, so I'm guessing yes, but he wore that gorgeous blue dot tie! Yay for Elvis standing up for same sex unions. I think it's a shame when Britney Spears can get married and totally desecrate the meaning of ...

cbartl: I think the only three shows he is playing with the Brodskys are at the Wang, the Beacon, and the Ryman. The show at the Oriental is with Steve. I think he's playing Seattle and Oregon with just the Brodskies (check ticketmaster for those shows)...y'all should come out for those shows :-) S...
