NY simulcast show to launch North

Post by bambooneedle »

Just saw this on John E's site:

"Details about North release
Shore Fire Media, 2003-08-13

Elvis Costello, 'North,' Deutsche Grammophon, September 23

Elvis Costello's new album 'North,' featuring eleven new compositions written at the piano by Costello between Autumn 2002 and New Year's Day 2003, will be released by Deutsche Grammophon on September 23. With the album, fans will get a PIN number giving them access to an online-only download of the title track, and the first 100,000 copies sold will include a limited-edition DVD with music videos. Costello will celebrate the release with a special show at New York's Museum of Television and Radio to be simulcast to Virgin Megastores and NPR's "World Cafe." "

Note they say "music videos"... I wonder what's on it. There's a lot of space on DVDs.

Reading the pr note about the launch of North ,
including the simulcast on NPR`s World Cafe radio
show , I found myself wondering about the actual
broadcast date of the show. Would it be the U.S.
release date of the album , Tues. Sept 23 or some
other day? The note`s language is vague, IMHO.

So I e-mailed the programme`s site,
http://www.worldcafe.org/comingup.php ,and asked them.
They replied
