Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Anyone else own any recordings by him? I have Tall Blonde Helicopter and I like it very much; so much so that I saw him in concert when he came into town.


Doh! I meant to put this in The Annex. My apologies for taking up anyone's time in reading this who is not interested.

I don't mean who is the better group or who do you prefer, but which group could physically take the other. Pretend that each group was a team in the WWF. Could Paul beat Mick to a pulp? If George were still alive could he put Keith in a death grip? Could Ringo sneak up upon Charlie and hit him over...

I haven't seen Passion yet, but I plan on renting it when it comes out. I will also rent The Life of Brian at the same time. My question is this: Which one shall I watch first?

Erasmus Darwin.........Charles' grandfather

I just watched the re-broadcast of The R&R Hall of Fame show and as I watching Prince it struck me that comparisons between he and Elvis can be drawn. They are both excellent songwriters who branch out into many styles. It was also interesting how Prince's microphone was shaped like a gun. Welco...

Elvis needs a shave (and a haircut)

If, as IStandAccused is right, EC is a fan of The Carpenters I can hold my head up high and say that Elvis, myself, and numerous others are in allegiance to withstand the slings and arrows of those who think that The Carpenters are a joke. One should not have to apologize for the things they find en...

Remember me? I'm the one who started the thread on Mr. Fogelberg. Well, here's another artist I like which may detract from my coolness image. Just watching an excellent documentary on PBS about The Carpenters. Included in the documentary were interviews by B. Bacharach, H. Alpert, P. Williams, etc....

Are we talking about the political correctness of 'Same Old Lang Syne'? What is Lang Syne ? Mood & Martin and others: I am merely having fun with my commentary. On a totally different subject - I have just picked up Nick Lowe's The Convincer . I have not listened to it yet, but I'm looking forwa...

O.K. :backing out rather slowly:

After listening to the newly acquired The Innocent Age on CD I am reminded how good this double album is.

I went to his web site to see what Dan is up to and he hasn't aged at all. (Well......maybe some)

'Sorry, I was born without a tongue.'

Photographer: 'No, Diana, sweetie, look at me.'

I was the one who ordered the Alabama Slammer. I've had better though. I think they put too much Southern Comfort in it.

But what about your Site Administration career?

Ever since I joined this little 'club' we have here, my CD collection has broaden (broadened???) I now have in my collection Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen, Lucinda Williams, and Mr. Thompson. I have Action Packed: The Best of the Capitol Years . I especially like 'Waltzing's For Dreamers' and 'I Misund...

Sorry you can't make the show, DC. It's a disappointment, but, looking at the big picture, it's only a concert.

I've got my train and EC tix in hand. I'll pm you SMM and Poppet on how you can get in touch with me when I know myself. Anyone else is invited to join us for debauchery.

Congrats and Mazel-tov

I hope you are not marrying Brittany Spears or J-Lo.

Welcom eltonsluv. Its always nice to 'meet' someone who appreciates non-mainstream music.......you found us.

To be candid I prefer the earlier Elton stuff (Honky Chateau, Caribou, Elton John, etc.) than his newer 'top 40' stuff.

Welcome!!

There is a five dollar cover charge and a two drink minimum.

I rented this movie last week and watched it over and over again, because it very well maybe the funniest movie I've ever seen. I decided to buy it from Amazon so the board is helped a bit.

And the film is.........Pootie Tang

Is it sunny or overcast?

Do you need to listen to Elvis atleast once a day? He always ends up in my CD player every week, but I don't think everyday.

Elvis better wear a pasty.
