Elvis Costello Fan Forum

I had not seen this version before:

I thought my GA days were over as well until the Vegas Brooklyn Bowl shows. I would gladly stand again for a show of that quality. But I am not sure how often show of that quality pop up.

Simply AMAZING

Actually, after searching for some time, I was able to find a demo by Costello that seems to be an origin of one of the songs from Mad About the Wrong Boy:

I got had as well. I was wondering why I could not find anything anywhe...

The title of this thread does not include a month. It's October, right?

I never really think of This Year's Model as Costello's second album but more as his first album with the Attractions.

I agree (heresy, right?) The live version in Brooklyn sealed the deal for me.

Me too. Also, I LOVE the Brodsky Quartet, but I never liked their version.

Odd that Mandel's favorite track is Grenade but that is one of the few that has not been played live (yet), unless it was played for the Clinton gig (for which no setlist has surfaced as of yet).

Come the Meantimes from March 16:

All due respect to Pete Thomas, ?uestlove's drumming causes the versions of this song played in Vegas to completely blow the version played by the Imposters in Japan out of the water.

Cinco Minutos Con Vos with Black Thought

You can see my forehead at 8:12.

The person who posted Tripwire has two more clips: Cinco Minutos Con Vos and Come the Meantimes. These are really the best clips in addition to the clips he already put up as they represent versions of those songs not previously available. Cinco Minutos features Black Thought and ?uestlove really ra...

Thanks for the heads up on the "freeloaders day."

Anyone know if either show was recorded, other than the guy who recorded night one with his iPhone who posted the show on youtube? Surely someone had to be recording shows like this. This again raises the question of what was up with that camera in the area between the stage and the front row during...

Thanks. I've always thought some of the songs from the Juliet Letters would sound great either solo or with the Imposters. Hopefully someday.

Thanks. Is the planned DVD going to have Brilliant Disguise and Fire? I've never seen that performance of Fire.

ETA: Just found it.

I have searched the internet today looking for info on the Clinton show, and got nothing but goose eggs. Not even a single song was mentioned, but you'd think based on the photos that they at least played Wise Up Ghost given the presence of a megaphone.

Oops. Double post

Never mind, Looks like they played it for less than ten seconds. Still pretty cool.

Did anything ever pop up?

Any chance of a complete torrent of every single Costello Fallon appearance, Doc? Definitely. I'm putting together a complete DVD. Should be ready in the next week or so. [/quote] Still working on this? I've noticed that some of the performances appear to be no longer available (Walk Us Uptown and ...
