Re: Free New Basement Tapes show, LA, Nov. 13 '14

Thanks for the links. having trouble downloading these, maybe because the media is protected. This entire video should be released as it looks like it will be a one off live performance of this group. If anyone could extract the mp4 it would be sweet.

Re: Help date some setlists , c. 2003-5

I'm fairly certain these are from July 2003 looking at the setlists from that time. There are some very close matches but not exact.

Re: Elvis plays Lincoln, NE on 3 March 2015

Some great pics :) I'm thinking "T.V is the thing this year" must surely be the Dinah Washington song that Elvis played on John Kelly's Irish radio programme back in 1998. http://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php/Radio_1998-03-24_Eclectic_Ballroom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xiRp9...

Re: COMPLETED! who thinks EC has performed 1500 different li

I thought I’d have a look at this for omissions and update more recent performances. Some of these titles may be considered for inclusion. As ANCT notes earlier, some titles are listed twice on the initial list and I also noticed a slight typo My Joy Theatre (Typo) = My Toy Theatre I’m not sure of s...

Re: COMPLETED! who thinks EC has performed 1500 different li

OH I see what you have done now, editing your posts as you went along. Quite spooky how the number is almost identical ! 1,347 is an incredible total anyway which doesn't include quite a number of songs he has written that have never been performed live, nor any of his instrumental orchestral pieces...
