Elvis Costello Fan Forum

it wasn't the cell phones ringing.. it was people calling others on their cell phone and YELLING over the music, talking about Saturday night or something... but singing along can be great.. like that couple in row 3 or four standing arm in arm at the Greek theater.. that was actually nice to see......

Bill Frisell and Elvis Costello Deep Dead Blue produced by Lee Townsend http://www.songtone.com/artists/Frisell/frisell_elvis.html Chet Baker - Live at Ronnie Scott's (1986) w/ ELvis COstello http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00005ASOX/qid=1077954027//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl74/104-8031430...

What is it with EC concerts where there is always loud singalongs, and very loud cell phone conversations?
Why do so many have to call their friends and yell over the music during the encores??
What am I missing? I have never seen it at other converts, only at EC converts. Should I do the same ?

great insight.. glad to here I am not alone. Now for the difficult part.
How do you explain that you might be interested in, er, seeing two concerts in a row, two days in a row ??

Steve plays all of them - betchya didn't know he was so good at guitar

boo hoo ... almost last place
need more voters!

thanks for all of the advice - I learned quite a bit from the comments

:-( ... feeling pretty selfish for suggesting we go no one can deny EC is talented.. she is just not THAT much of a fan. There are many who don't like his voice (even though they admit he sings well) there must be some others who drag their spouses along.. or who are occasioanlly ridiculed for likin...

Check out http://www.hitsongscience.com Pretty soon, we will all be force-fed the same garbage that Clear Channel gives us, as oon as they own everything.

Your story is interesting enough that your mug might get posted on match.com or on the home page of MSN.com.. if you are willing to endure the fiteen minutes of fame.

I thought this may be the best place to ask the question. When you have a couple of kids, most of your focus in on their education and upbringing. Since they both can play recorder, and play by ear, we were wondering if guitar lessons are out of the question, possibly instead of piano (ages 7-10). I...

wait a minute.. aren't you a little young to be listening to Burt Bacharach tunes??? Anyway, have you tried Lisa?...

I guess all of the EC fans are older males


there are five females withing 50 miles of you on tribe.net who like EC


also, you could post on elviscostello.info

Okay. I didn't do craigslist before because I had never heard of it. I found it easily enough now, and I just posted it the list. Lets see what happens now. Thanks Did you see this one?: "need a date for costello? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Still Available!!! I guess we just don't have a big enough base in the Bay Area. Well, though the offer is still up for grabs, I think I'll be able to get a date for the show -- I just don't know if they'll APPRECIATE the show as much as one of our groupies would. if craigslist did not work, try tr...

that makes a lot of sense.

also, I thought the EC fans were the introverts

Hi AlmostBlue.....where are you from in Denmark? How did you get that 'ontological' search? When there it is close to Copenhagen, around Glostrup, but I am in no way from Denmark, or Danish. I took out the bottom of the signature, which was just pasted for fun. I am semi-fluent in spoken, but horri...

that would be a bad thing, wouldn't it??? I mean, Elvis Costello has a voice that irritates many, but he is an outstanding singer :-) they must mean.. these musicians has a sound that is similar to the "alternative rock," "Indie" or whatever sweeping generalization they can make....

yes, denial for those of us over 40

I had heard that Elcis told Paul McCartney about Ron. Ron was staying close to Paul's home, and then Elvis brought him over. (not that this is even worth mentioning - oh well, here is the text of an interview) http://www.seemagazine.com/Issues/2003/0911/mus1.htm SEE: You meet tons of other famous pe...

probably, because of "Almost Blue," and because I like Chet baker, and because it was reported that Elvis performs on every track

yes, and thanks for the listing.. it would be interesting to take this further. In other words, similar to BlueChairs's request for your EC top 10, take all of the members top ten groups.
