Me!

Busy weekend planned rounded off with a trip to Niagra Falls. Never been to Canada before and really looking forward to the whole trip

I only saw three shows on this tour but, for me, Hammersmith was definitely the best. No real sound issues from where I was seated, back of the stalls, and a great setlist. The usual complaints about people talking during the show, particularly those standing at the back. It seems some think it’s a ...

Great story. Paul Weller is the hero I haven’t met yet. I got Bruce Foxton to sign it too a few weeks ago. It's on the wall next to my signed Good Year for the Roses and Nick Mason signed Another Brick in the Wall! https://scontent.fltn3-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/281348965_10160093651577422_285...

The main three artists I go to see Elvis, Weller and Morrissey play what they want. Three of my top ten live acts/shows....Weller and Morrissey about 17 times each. I sure wish PAUL gets to the USA this year. Been nearly 5 years since I last saw him. :( :( He's on the top of his game at the moment....

I’m driving down to Stanmore and tubing in from there. Can’t leave until around 5 so will be cutting it fine to make Ian Prowse.

Fingers crossed the M1 is kind to me!

Really enjoyed last night. To me, it was better than Brighton. The sound wasn’t perfect at times and occasionally it seemed Elvis was singing slightly off key but no real complaints about the performance and set list. The ‘newer’ songs sound fantastic live. Now a few observations. I bought my ticket...

I’m looking forward to tonight. I enjoyed the Brighton gig but it wasn’t fully satisfying. Not sure why. Also important to me as it was about this time of day I received the email to say that night’s show in Oxford was cancelled as was the rest of the tour because of covid. It’s been a long two years

Elvis posted this on Facebook… “Last night was our first show in Liverpool since my mother’s passing in January 2021. I knew our concert at the Philharmonic Hall would feel very different but hoped it would be worthy of our 2020 show at The Olympia - the last performance my Ma was able to attend - a...

I’ll be there too

Are you aware of something I’m not? The Brighton show I’m going to is on Sunday :lol: Hope I see you there. I’ve heard only great reviews of these shows. Elvis is definitely more relaxed in a speaking environment. Well spotted, it is Sunday. I'm going to the Stone Valley Festival South on Thursday ...

Great night and well worth the extra CD I bought to buy a ticket. In fact they offered me another CD when I checked in at the venue not realising I had received it by post already. Obviously I refused the extra one. Elvis was in great form, very funny and very relaxed. The only thing I noted is I’ve...

Me!

Just leaving now and hopefully miss the Red Dogs parade. Not the ideal location to head for today as a Derby fan!!

Rafting in Vegas? I can’t imagine. Vegas is lame. I’ve only been there for business conferences and I hate it. If I had any spare time there, I would drive directly to Zion National Park. Sounds like your Toronto trip is packed with lots to do. Enjoy the trip/shows. Second City Toronto might be a g...

Our last meet up was terrific and saw about a dozen of us meet up for a fantastic afternoon at the White Swan in Aldgate East. The new album was out and the jukebox had Elvis galore! We all agreed it would be great to meet up before the tour starts so with covid about to be a thing of the past ( :r...

Fingers crossed mate. That’s really bad news. As you say I’m sure they must be able to find a different venue. I wonder if poor ticket sales were ultimately the real reason. After over an hour on hold followed by a very long call with a call centre, I think I've cancelled my Las Vegas trip and am l...

Just had an email saying the concert in Las Vegas is cancelled and I'll get a refund in the next 7 days. No explanation, just it's not happening. Quite pissed off now as looking at the other US dates I'm not sure I can make any of them, it plus I'm not sure if I can get a refund on my hotel and fli...

I just read on Facebook that the Las Vegas show has been cancelled. I've not had any notification yet but the tour page link link takes to to AXS showing cancelled and the show isn't listed on the venue website anymore. Any idea what has happened? Rescheduled to another venue maybe or is that wishfu...

I've succumbed to temptation and booked a ticket for Las Vegas on September 3rd. Elvis and Vegas just go together, don't they? I'm flying out from Heathrow on the Friday, staying at the Virgin Hotel - same venue as the theatre, and fly back on Monday afternoon. I'll be knackered but I'm sure it will...

I have tickets to Flaming Lips in Aylesbury this night and now I have tickets to both, but can't go to both!

The local dates, for me, clash with other gigs I've already got tickets for. So it looks like I'll just do Oxford and Hammersmith. The De Montfort Hall in Leicester, which would be my first choice of venue, have already posted the ticket prices. Tickets £100.50 £86.50 £76.50 £66.50 £56.50 £51.50 See...

This is a difficult one. Quite a few to choose from but some obvious one stand out. Not all great shows but there is more to it than that. The first one, 22nd October 1977, on the Stiff Tour at Leicester Uni. I didn't know at the time it would be start of a 43 year obsession but everything about th...

I won’t be troubling the merchandise store. I’ll buy the CD and get Elvis to sign it. I'm the same although I'll probably get the vinyl. Having said that, I had Look Now ready for Elvis to sign in Oxford and that was cancelled on the morning of the gig. I'll just bring it a long with Hey Clockface ...
