Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Lots to be proud of Gilli - being a Spurs fan aside :roll: Not only is your daughter very clever, shje is also very beautiful (if you don't mind me saying). My eldest daughter (the extroverted one) was recently awarded one of the main parts in the school panto. She was up against several other child...

Well, Mrs Doofster and I were there and so was Otis and his friend, Annie. The man was on fine form and in a very good mood. 3 full HOURS!!!! Reviews and set lists to follow!

I hate stereotyping people on the basis of gender, disability, race or sexual orientation, but it is so obvious that Campbell is gay. That's cool and irrelevant to everyone but him. I just hate that bogus self-publicism that goes with famous people pretending to be straight instead of being proud of...

His election is great news.....he is certain to drag his scummy outdated party into the grave. Yippee!!

Sol Campbell is a blood sucking, granny bashing git, who is obviously trying to pretend he isn't in the closet. Why doesn't he just admit he is gay. This is the 21st century for God's sake! Pretending he's shagging Teddy Sheringham's ex....please jesus tell me British society has moved on from that....

Don't forget about Gus Poyet!

BWAP

Don't stop in the early 80s. Try Play, Some Fantastic Place and Frank. Ridiculous aint half bad either.

Lapins will always be on my dream list.

Too right VG. Squeeze were damn fantastic and Glenn is one of the best live performers around. Saw him in Northampton earlier in the year and we chatted for a while - a genuinely nice man with time for his fans.. I keep telling people to buy Excess moderation but nobody listens. They should buy them...

OOOOHHH.....You boys are in trouble now.....wait till Otis comes back...I'm telling...

This is what my next door neighbour would call:

"sad blokes talking about old blokes' music"

Well done mate - is your new boss a gooner??

This nyear has been a landmark one for me. Never seen so many rock stars die when they are still (relatively) young. I feel very mortal right now!

LC - I loved the first BS album, but i think they've gone downhill since. Parts of BITC were great (Have Fun and One God etc) but the rest was banal IMHO. Love Heaton's voice, but he always gives me the feeling that he's under-achieving. Ps. "The People who grinned...." was a great record.

Nice one Pov - haven't laughed like that for a while!

Out: Belle & Sebastian - Get Me Away from Here, I'm Dying In: The Beatles - Happiness is a Warm Gun The Beatles - Happiness is a Warm Gun Pulp - Disco 2000 Joni Mitchell - Amelia Bob Dylan - Lily Rosemary & The Jack Of Hearts Lloyd Cole - My Other Life Tom Waits - Jockey Full Of Bourbon Otis...

SLL got it right!! LC - if you supported a London team, you'd understand. You might have a different perspective if West Brom had suddenly accrued a billionaire !! :lol: WSS - Absoutely right about Chelsea continuing to hammer Spurs twice a season - I long since gave up on anything different :( . Ho...

Chelsea did well. It may well be blatant jealousy (well it definitely is really :( ) but I cannot take them seriously like the Arse or the Mancs. They were, are and always will be a team of mercenaries. The club has no sense of history (apart from the Osgood years, when they were as effective as the...

Great news Otis!!

Are you bringing your good lady?

I would buy For the Stars just for Green Song and the title track. But then again I seem to be the only one.

I shall defienitely attend if we have an Elvis convention in Bournemouth in April. So that is me and PoP. Anyone else??

...........and for the record...I'm with KoS and CopFan. Its the best.

Just picked up the White Album on CD - damn fine.

The old cassette was knackered!
