Tonight in Music:
Elvis Costello And The Imposters
Ryan J. Prado
(Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, 1037 SW Broadway)
If it seems like Elvis Costello's been on the road pretty much nonstop these days, it's because he has been. The once-bristly Brit has embraced his status as living legend over the past decade with live dates, television appearances, and as host of his own musical variety show, Spectacle. He's also managed to perpetuate his reign over contemporary songsmiths with a slew of spectrum-spanning LPs with the Imposters. On the Spectacular Spinning Songbook Tour, Costello combines game-show theatrics with a setlist boasting over 200 different classic tunes. During each performance, lucky fans get the chance to go onstage to spin the wheel, clicking across categories like "hits," "rarities," and more. As if this wasn't spectacle enough, the stage will be flanked by go-go cages—and likely covered in the panties of all genders in celebration of Elvis' first Portland appearance since forever
