Re: Mighty Like A Rose at 30
Definitely in my top 5 Elvis albums. It hit me hard at a very significant and emotional time in my life (aged 21) and had a big impact. All Grown Up, How To Be Dumb, So Like Candy and Couldn’t Call It Unexpected are four of his very greatest. The only disappointment for me was that the tour was kin...

Re: Costello & Nieve: 15 songs from 50 years, Leeds (UK), Sept 2 & 3, 2024
So, I have to purchase 2 tickets if I want to hear all 30 songs over the course of one evening ?!? Er….ok. By way of contrast, I enjoyed The Stranglers play a 29 song set at the Nottingham Concert Hall last night including a welcome 30 minute interval. ALL tickets priced at £40.00, front rows to ba...

Easy one for me. https://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php?title=Concert_2013-09-16_New_York September 16, 2013, the Wise Up Ghost album premiere concert at the tiny Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, NY. It was live broadcast on WFUV-FM. Amazing night! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/640x480q70/922...

Re: Elvis & Steve, Barcelona (Spain), September 5, 2023
Largely the same set list as Madrid, except take out the two Face in the Crowd Songs, Dio Come Ti Amo, and Cowards, and add The Whirlwind, The Birds Will Still Be Singing, and I Want You.

We can all agree that Punch the Clock doesn't belong anywhere near this list (although I still love it).

Thanks for the review. The setlist looked a bit different and Im glad that it worked out well. No crowd pleasers exactly. Thanks all for the nice comments.

I'm in the distinct minority, but I think Hey Clockface is one of his finest albums. I include Shut Him Down a...

Re: Elvis & the Imposters with Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets, Beacon Theatre, New York, NY July 13, 2023
I definitely preferred Night 1. The crowd tonight was pretty bad. Tepid applause, a lot of talking during songs, tons of people getting up to go get drinks or restroom during slow songs/non-hits. People rudely yelling to EC (e.g., "play some rock n roll!") It seemed to bother EC, at least ...
