Dawes includes Taylor Goldsmith (vocals, guitars), Wylie Gelber (bass), Griffin Goldsmith (drums, vocals, percussion) and Lee Pardini (keyboards, vocals), along with touring guitarist Trevor Menear. In a recent phone interview, Griffin Goldsmith talked about the band’s current tour, the new record, and touring with Bob Dylan in 2013

(extract)

Q: You’ll be back in upstate New York this summer June to play a show with Elvis Costello in Canandaigua in June

GG: He’s my hero. We got a chance to sit in with him last year at the Newport Folk Festival as his band, and that was a dream come true. This summer show is with the Imposters, which is one of my favorite bands ever, so I’m excited. That goes for all of us.

I'm seeing Dawes tonight in NYC. They're one of my favorite bands right now.

Unfortunately they won't be opening for Elvis at Summer Stage. Damn curfew.

Elvis has been reacting to Twitter comments about ads for the Imperial Bedroom shows.

Elvis is right. The ad appears on @khanson71's computer screen based on his individual computer's web browser history (ie, cookies). Elvis is not paying for advertising on these websites. Totally unfair and incorrect to blame him.

Internet cookies for dummies (video format!) Maybe EC should share this with the twit-ters.

Crazy prices

I really doubt Elvis would sell tickets at that price in the UK/Europe?

There's still a gap between the June and July US dates to bring the show to the UK ...

I may be the only person on this forum to have seen EC and Imelda May live on stage together (although their performance was televised). They both appeared at the Royal Albert Hall, in London at an event three years ago to celebrate the first State visit to the UK of the President of EIre.

http://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/inde ... -10_London

They sang three songs together, one by Brendan Behan and two by EC - "Tripwire" and "PLU". They also joined in the final ensemble performance of "The Parting Glass".

I would imagine that Ms May will do more than just play a supporting set, but time will tell.

I have a tenuous claim to be another of the select few to have seen Imelda & Elvis on the same stage. In June 2013 she appeared at the Westport festival , on the same stage Elvis & co. would use after her. I did say it was a tenuous claim...

This is from Imelda May's Facebook Account:

Someone "Stateside" may be able to identify the venue.

This is probably from a show when EC and The Imposters were opening for Steely Dan in Summer 2015.

Hi folks, I have a question about getting tix for San Diego. Is there a way to get them through fan club or elsewhere and avoid the high ticketmaster fees? The presale is this Thursday, but the link takes me to TM :(.
Thanks!

EDIT: I went to fan site and it turns out the presale on there had just started. I got 2 tix, 2nd row center for a whopping 290 total. No bargain, but I've never had seats nearly that good.

I saw Imelda May supporting the Who at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday night

Very impressive set. He style would compliment Elvis perfectly
