Elvis Costello Fan Forum

I suppose this is a series of chronological releases ( except for Trust on MoFi but how many are they going to press ? 50 copies would probably cover it

Thanks for this, didn't want to wreck my ratio on dime by downloading the whole performance. Incidentally, there's a nice clip if the end of Big Boys before YBTM begins !

We'll never be out of your debt, Doc , thanks for this !

Whoopee, at last

I'm only generally a Christmas grump. The rest of the year I'm ok. "Until any female tries to push in front of you at a Costello gig. " I have been known to dance to Bob's version of Must Be Santa holding the fromt legs of Seamus ( the lurcher collie) but my family all seem to think this ...

Little does she know I've just bagged myself a front row seat for Birmingham which has been covered up by the fact that I'm really working and unavailable for Christmas shopping ! I'll make it up to her by allowing her to come to Birmingham with me to see the children.

Mrs Sulky returned home after a sojourn in Birmingham ( to see Deacon Blue live :shock: ) and, having stayed later than first intended was obviously wracked by guilt and prototype bought me a seat for Plymouth, a mere 13 miles, away on row B no less . I'd rather be lucky than handsome though as VG s...

Liverpool already sorted, 3 done another 4 to sort. Sadly no shows in conjunction with VG yet- I may have to detour to Southampton to rectify that !

Bradwell boy, that's a road trip for the future !! I'd love to do that, unfortunately Mrs Sulky wouldnt
Just got a row B seat for Cardiff now for attempts for Bristol, Plymouth, Hanley and possibly one more

You know they want you there, John !

Bradwellboy, I should teach you how to record and we'd have the whole tour covered between us ( except your recordings would all have some loon shouting for My Three Sons ! )

Row B for Nottingham - so far lol

I'd better get my promotion now !! I think Liverppolvwill be a definite and a hometown gig for me in Plymouth for the first time since 1999 ! What a great Christmas present !

Hey BA, how come Missouri is more popular than NY for this tour. One day we 'll link up on a coast to Coast road trip , hey ?

Actually in this part of Devon, the girls have the best beards !!

I said I wouldn't mention "filling my vacancy"

Has anyone got a contact email for Richard Groothuizen ? I've just had an email bounced back from his old ECIS arvo email address - thanks !

Thanks for putting this up Neil, you still act like a teenager with your trendy dialogue and boyish looks and technophile IT skills - shame about the singing !!

It seems that the Save The Children/Oxfam appeal that has just been launched in the UK features the original Pump It Up !

Is this Verbal's upstairs or the upstairs in the pub ?

Thanks Mojo. David Klavins said he was working on another version of the tall piano because he wasn't happy with the top end sound although it was better than I had expected. I somehow got the impression he was thinking of a larger version( I'm sure he mentioned 4.5 metres at one stage ) so I guess ...

Further to John's posts, when we encountered Steve and Muriel in our hotel ( I think Alain Blondell was also staying there) Steve's face lit up - he genuinely seemed pleased and flattered to meet us . Towards the end of the concert he invited the audience to pick notes for him to improvise on and he...

BA, I'll check my lists and see if I've got them and if so , I'll make copies and send to you !

Missed a couple of the first shows but they're now on series link so should be able to record them next time round !
