Elvis Costello Fan Forum

To quote U2: "I'll leave that to you"

To quote the Jackson 5: "I'll be there".

I'll be there. Will have to fight my way through Waterloo after work so not sure I'll be able to get there for 7, I'll head for the Anvil bar though.

Hurrah! Happy birthday John!

Even the rapping cat?

Good to catch up with everyone, see you on the tour!

Link seems to be dead now, don't think this is happening.

Right, I've bought a ticket for Basingstoke. Think that'll be enough to tide me over until he comes to London again.

The state of my head on Sunday morning wishes I'd called it a day at four hours...

Good to see everyone!

I'm not sure we can allow non-board members into the VIP area though. He'll have to sit on the other side of the velvet rope.

The Coal Hole's even worse for tourists! Nice place though.

I felt really guilty walking past the Garrick this weekend. Had to cross the road.

I approve this message.

Is the Garrick set in stone though? Tends to draw too much of the Leicester Sq tourist crowd for my liking. Don't want to rock the boat though...

Hmm hmm hmm.

Not on a Thursday, no.

Or maybe?

No.

Are these (*ahem*) available anywhere?


EDIT: Ignore, just noticed the other thread.

We will try to drop in. See you later!

PIERLESS.

I'll be there!

EDIT: Found a good home for it, it's gone.

Unfortunately I won't be able to attend the Tuesday 4th June show at the Royal Albert Hall as work are sending me to Singapore. I have one (1) spare ticket in the 5th row centre stage if anyone is interested. Arena F/5 19. £45 (face value) or nearest offer.

And the Daily Mail's deputy political editor, Tim Shipman, replied: "What a stunningly unpleasant tweet."

I assume he hasn't seen any of the rest of Twitter today then...
