I was at MetLife also. Great show, exceeded my expectations.docinwestchester wrote:That is quite cool!
I was at the MetLife show last month and it was wonderful. Tremendous experience, both musically and visually.

The lack of variety in the set lists this tour was a little disappointing, although granted they did have to play most of the IB songs. Eases the pain of missing this leg of the tour a little.

Anyone know if it was the full version of Boy With a Problem, or just the snippet within SWHOG?

Re: 'Painted From Memory' on Broadway
We will never see Painted From Memory, A Face in the Crowd, or any of the other alleged EC musicals. Here's hoping he releases an album or two with all the songs that were slated for the musicals.

Re: Elvis & Imposters play Beacon, NYC 11/6
Just got back, this was a great great show. Awesome set list. Highlight for me was a beautiful version of Kid About It, one of my favorite songs. And the Face In The Crowd songs are just so, so good, I really hope he makes an album of them one day. Got excited when he went into Boy With a Problem, b...

"Little Savage" and "Boy With A Problem" have only been played once each, so I suppose if any songs were to be skipped they would be the most likely candidates. But I think he'll play them all." Indeed, these were the only 2 not played last night. Little Savage seems like it...

Doc's post reminds me, I thought the new artwork for the backdrops was outstanding - using all the album covers with an overlay of the artistic technique from the IB album. They were selling an art book with these prints at the merch table, so I bought one.

Re: Elvis & The Imposters play Atlantic City, NJ , October 22 2016
My take - Very fun show despite the terrible crowd. There were a few technical problems that seemed to piss Elvis off (his own guitar, Steve's keyboards, and Davey's bass at one point), and the band will surely get tighter in short order. At least half the songs I had never seen performed before. Lo...

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?
