And with that, Elvis has now played every song from Blood & Chocolate at some point in 2013.

I got a setlist from the sound board guy right after the show ended and it is pretty interesting. Several songs on the list that were not played, including:

Suffering Face
Radio Sweetheart
Still Too Soon to Know
Different Finger (I suspect he was about to play this song when there were technical dificulties with his acoustic, as it is listed right before Delivery Man)
I Can't Say Her Name
No Wonder/For the Stars

I will try to post a photo of the list when I can.

There were several songs that he played that were NOT on the original setlist, however, including:

Town Cryer
After the Fall
Detectives
Walkin My Baby Back Home
The Flirting Kind
Dirty Rotten Shame

Hey, there I am in the fourth picture of the crowd, before the Elvis pictures start. No, not the guy in the Giants jersey. The blurry giant head on the left!

Review by Jon Chattman from November 13, 2013 at A-Sides

"ELVIS COMES TO PORT CHESTER

He’s been backed by the Attractions, the Imposters, the Bacharach, and the list goes on as wide as Toledo but on Tuesday night, Elvis Costello stood on The Capitol Theatre stage alone with nothing more than his collection of guitars, a mandolin, a keyboard planted to his right, and a black curtain behind him. Boy was that enough. In a tour de force performance — the second of two nights at The Cap — the music master dug deep into his catalog, churning out one “wicked” track after the other from opener “King Horse” (off Get Happy) to his swan song of “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace Love and Understanding” mashed with his latest album Wise Up Ghost’s “Tripwire.”

In-between those tracks were over two-hours of deep cuts, infamous hits, glorious head scratchers, and obvious joy. Whether it was performing songs of Blood & Chocolate or The Imperial Bedroom or the aforementioned Wise Up Ghost, his recent release with The Roots, Costello commanded the stage and your attention. His aim was true on this cold, bitter night in Port Chester: he played songs he wanted to play and knew his fans were smart enough to stay with him throughout. That trust was center stage later in the night when Costello took advantage of the intimacy and acoustics of The Cap, and performed “Dirty Rotten Shame” off mic. I think I heard a pin drop during it.

Many of the songs Costello played were somewhat drab and admittedly about “deceit” as much as they were about “love,” but on this Tuesday evening, his vinyl-ready vocals never wavered, and the spotlight shined on his lyrical genius. Costello could’ve played the hits or hocked his new album, but he didn’t. He just played an uncompromising set — his songs, his terms, and we’re the better for it. Halfway through his set, he said he was going to bring out a special guest. After a brief pause, he cracked, “Me.” Who needs a special guest when you have one Elvis in the building?

* Written by Jon Chattman for The Capitol Theatre A-sides"
