Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers 2017 US Tour

Post by And No Coffee Table »

Elvis Costello & The Imposters Return To The US!

By popular demand, Elvis Costello & The Imposters bring their new show, “Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers” to the US for a coast-to-coast Summer tour!

The show takes songs from the 1983 album, “Imperial Bedroom” as a starting point but as Costello told our roving reporter…"We never intended to recite this book from cover to cover. Listen to our new arrangement of “Tears Before Bedtime”, it gets straight to the real meaning of that song, the way we hear and feel it today. Back in 1982, I might have been a step or two ahead of our crowd in the tragic, romantic stakes but I sense that they’ve all caught up with me now”

Standout songs from “Imperial Bedroom” like “Beyond Belief”, “Almost Blue” and “Man Out Of Time” have remained in Costello’s repertoire throughout the years but a blazing electric version of the rarely performed “Pidgin English” was among the many highlights of an initial run of dates that concluded at the Beacon Theatre, New York City on the eve of the recent election.

Speaking of the second part of the show’s title, Costello added, “You never know who or what you are going to encounter down the corridor to those “Other Chambers””.

Starting Tuesday, Feb 28th at 10am local venue time, you will have exclusive pre-sale access to concert tickets for the following shows:

It's a GA show...shouldn't be a problem.

Joining you in the optimistic column, EC's Mum's birthday is around 5th ish of July. Currently Liverpool Philharmonic site is showing 'gaps' on 3-5th July, 7th, 10th onwards.

Looks good to me

Elvis told a few of our friends who were in Norway last night that the show would be coming to the UK.

I'm pretty sure it'll tie in with his mum's birthday.

2 for The Tower @$125 became $316 after fees...nothing worth buying in the presale.

New fan club presale is much better than the previous one. Unless you have to go to Ticketbastard/Live Nation, in which case it's the usual mess with lousy seats.

How cool if EC joins Dawes for one of Taylor's The New Basement Tapes songs?

I'd pay to see that...
