See you in Port Chester?

Unfortunately, the show at the Wellmont tomorrow will be my last. 13 in a row is enough, I think?

I am on scene and ready to go…

They didn’t announce the winner as I was told that they would just contact the person during the last show.

Alison "any day now"? Perhaps the Burt Bacharach/Bob Hilliard song first recorded by Chuck Jackson? We all know about Burt, but Chuck Jackson also died earlier this month. i0aAp5bWVf8 Thanks and sorry for the rushed setlist post. Yes, that was it and it was a super brief part, but very fa...

Just as we were getting used to the Gramercy!

I was particularly pleased to hear CCIU and Newspaper Pane (finally for me). Otherwise a stock factory issue Imposters show, but still great. Not sure we needed EIGHT songs from Boy Named If tonight. Four would have sufficed with four more deep cuts from past albums. I totally agree that a few more...

Insane show and such an amazing 10 night run! Thank you to everyone involved! See you in PA and NJ!

I’m super stoked and excited for this, the 10th and final show of this amazing run. I hope everyone has a blast and I’m still incredibly shocked that I’ve been able to see all of these shows. I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us!

After 9 shows I’ve been fortunate enough to get 8 of my original 20 from my wish list. Here’s hoping for a few more tomorrow night and of course, from all subsequent shows. What a brilliant run it’s been…

These shows are truly incredible and I am a very happy camper…

I’m ready for my final week of shows. I think?

Another incredible evening. It’s great to hear Elvis also chatting to the audience. I sat next to a couple who obviously did not get the memo on the shows and complained about no band and no hits. Thankfully they left after an hour so the complaining stopped. For those who have attended , check out...

STILL hardly any recordings !! :shock: :shock: :cry: EC's people might be recording all shows. I noticed what looked like a professional video of one of the prior night's shows playing in the Merch lounge on the TV monitor. They’ve had those recording mics out for every show, so here’s hoping for a...

Another great show and the highlights for me were:

Still
Still Too Soon To Know
The Comedians
When I Was Cruel No. 02

These last three shows should be pretty spectacular!

P.S. The annoying guy singing along to “Tiny Steps” was me! Sorry, not sorry…

Thanks! This notes that Elvis mentioned Bruce Thomas between songs. Can anyone provide details of what was said?

He was just referencing the Attractions by name and included Bruce. Nothing more…

WTF?!?! I Just Don’t Know, How Much I Lied, I’m Your Toy and Tiny Steps? After God Give Me Strength and so many other amazing songs. These shows are surreal!

Wynton is in town.

Back at it tonight!

King of Confidence : Wow!! My 3 Sons + Puppet represents two very personal songs back to back. Did he seem moved by doing them together like that I wonder? Yes, he seemed very moved by those two - plus Toledo when talking about Burt. This was well worth the trip over from the UK!!! The moment when ...

Good Year and My Funny Valentine were excellent too!

Another excellent show! I loved that he played “I Dreamed of My Old Lover”, but man, “I’ll Wear it Proudly” and “Riot Act” slayed…

I saw her singing this at the London Palladium on a Detour show and in my view it’s the best vocal she has ever done.

Yes! I saw it performed in Texas a few years ago and I was so happy he brought her in for it.
