Elvis Costello Fan Forum

will be there too

Nice show but really felt short and a bit rush. Standouts for me were both Flutter & Wow and Turpintine that have really grown and filled out since we heard them back in NOLA at Jazzfest. The trade-off of the vocal with Sting on Allison was surprising good Seemed like one of the few times during...

Perhaps the band is in dresses and they really should be billed as the female impersonators?

The other four shows were filmed two shows in the same week so I wouldn't think one is replacing the other

Have ticket requests in for both so we'll see????

I will and at Jones Beach and the Steve show next week - if I hear back maybe some more Spectacle tapings too Hoping for lots of good stuff to write about like Smokey and Police covers being tried out before the tapings (ala From Head to Toe) As I've said before it's a good time to be an EC fan in NYC

No info on if this is solo, with band or potential special guests but thought it might be of interest to the locals

I guess this might have been among the topics the three of them discussed http://movies.nytimes.com/2008/07/18/movies/18berl.html?ref=movies Movie Review Lou Reed's Berlin (2007)NYT Critics' Pick This movie has been designated a Critic's Pick by the film reviewers of The Times.

John, it'd be fun to prove to him and if anyone can find it you are the man!!

Guess there's no need to look for that newspaper picture of MT any longer.

I agree that it doesn't matter but it's nice to kind of know

I guess my discussion about the show with him in the NOLA ariport after jazzfest was better than some of these professionals could muster - go figure???

Thanks John

I asked if there really was "a newspaper picture of a woman kissing a child" in the mix of MT inspirations for Tramp the dirt down

Quite a spectacle!!!!

I wonder if EC wrote No Hiding Place before or after reading this script?

At Allen's show at Joe's Pub today I asked him after about Where is the Love. He said it was a song that Elvis took so far and then handed over to him to finish. He confirmed that it's about Bush and that got me thinking about the question I've posted TtDD is an amazing song that still gives me chil...

very nice, thanks

http://www.milesofmusic.com/ ELVIS COSTELLO Momofuku You really are here because you want to know how good 'Momofuku' is. It's excellent! One of his best! I don't say that lightly, either. It's obvious on first listen that the reason why he decided to set the record off with an initial vinyl-only st...

Nice description of the "new"EIWtB

Amazing, thanks John

Let's hope there are more "magic number" collaborations coming

Sounds like the new Coward Bros release to me

I'd actually met him briefly twice before so that certainly helped a bunch but I was kind of pinching myself the whole time. My wife said right after "I can't believe that you just talked to him for that long" because I'm not the best conversationalist. I certainly give EC the credit for i...

OK, finally a little more about the time I got to spend with EC in the NOLA airport the day after the Jazzfest show with AT et al. I'll try not to go on at length to avoid the friends rolling their eyes looks I've received in the last few weeks ala "Let Me Tell You About Her" or it / the c...
