Elvis & the Roots, Port Chester (NY), March 12, 2014

Post by sweetest punch »

http://www.jambase.com/Articles/120582/ ... -The-Roots

One of our favorite albums of 2013 was Wise Up Ghost, the long-awaited collaboration between Elvis Costello and The Roots. Last September the two acts paired for a show at Brooklyn Bowl billed as "One Night Only," but thankfully we'll see more of Elvis and The Roots when they team for three shows in March.

Costello and The Roots will play The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY on March 12. Tickets for this show go on sale Friday, January 31 at noon ET. The two acts will then jet to Las Vegas to play two of the first shows at impresario Pete Shapiro's Brooklyn Bowl - Las Vegas outpost on March 15 and 16. Elvis and The Roots's Las Vegas gigs take place after The Roots play the venue by themselves on March 14.
Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

This is great!

I was thrilled it was a seated venue, but looks like they are going to make the floor Gen Admission. They take the seats out?

If that's the case, then I need to try for the loge, right? How hard is it to get front row loge or balcony, Doc?
