Yeah but he likes German composers. :) Can't agree with him about the food (love good southern German and Austrian food). Also my German friends are not what he describes.

The official website says this: http://www.elviscostello.com/yellow-pre ... cement/439

"Offenbach Cancellation Announcement"

"Regretfully, we have to announce that tonight's concert by Elvis Costello and the Imposters at the Capitol in Offenbach has been cancelled due to a throat infection and doctors advice.
It is hoped the tour will continue after a second day of vocal curfew which began on Sunday.
Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

Must have been something in the air in Norfolk. His voice was holding up pretty well on Friday, although there wasn't much chat between songs. Two hours on Saturday in a dusty pollen laden forest may have been too much.

So did Elvis just use the Gustavo Santaolalla alias for the one picture, or did he also secretly compose the scores for The Insider, 21 Grams, The Motorcycle Diaries, Babel and Biutiful also?
