Elvis Costello Fan Forum

I've been checking every day to find when tickets for the September 22 and 23 shows at Town Hall (in NYC) would go on sale. Now the shows aren't listed on the web site anymore. :cry: Maybe EC wants people to have a chance to listen to the new record before he starts touring, so that people don't buy...

From the Associated Press: "We asked for an alligator, we paid for an alligator and unfortunately we did not get an alligator." - University of Florida spokesman Steve McClain, after a crocodile - not the school's namesake "Gator" - was put on the cover of its 2003 football media...

Here is the funniest thing I've read about this apparently horrible movie:

Thanks, Gilli!

Nice Review! I guess I won't be buying that CD now. See, you've actually convinced someone! (I do like their older stuff, up through Aja).

Well, I just received the discs yesterday. I'm a bit disappointed because the seller told me the set was in "great" condition, but I would say "decent" is more like it. I guess I'm not THAT disappointed since I'm not going to raise a fuss about it. I ripped all the discs to my mp...

I meant that it's fast for a zoom lens (at its widest, max aperature), so I'd be surprised if a faster one was available. I wasn't sure if it was a fixed lens or not as I'm not familiar with the camera. I've got an SLR -- not digital but I'm glad I can swap a fast f1.4 50mm for a 24mm or a 70-210mm...

Good pics Pov, very sharp. Can you get a bigger maximum apperture than f1.8 on a zoom lens for it? Bamboo, I'm not sure I understand your question. The maximum aperature on the zoom is f1.8. I assume that shrinks down somewhat at longer focal lengths but I would have to check the specs to see how m...

No, she's just the mayor of our house!

Sulkygirl, one of these day's I'll actually post MY picture, but kids and friends are just so much easier to look at

Hey, ARL. Yeah it is a pretty nice camera. Its an Olympus C5050Z. The couple are freinds of mine. I'm not quite so good looking Also, I believe you are correct, the car is a Model A. The driver is the mayor of my town and the car comes out once a year for 4th of July.

I got a digital camera a few weeks ago. Here is a link some of the first pictures I took with it. I'm curious to know what you all think, good or bad (I can take it!)

I don't take it personally because I really don't care about what other people think about the stuff I like. As the old saying goes, opinions are like a-holes, everybody's got one.

I said yes and I think that committed gay couples should have the same rights as committed heterosexual couples. However, I think that a lot of trouble could be avoided if we didn't call it "marriage." What's wrong with a legally recognized "commitment ceremony" or something like...

I love listening to PFM when I'm in a more laid-back kind of mood. I have to say it's one of my favorites, even with the backup singers (the first time I heard them come in it was a bit of a shock, but I'm used to them now :) . Also, my wife hates loud music so this is an EC album that we can both e...

Maybe I'm just not exposed to the 'proper' media outlets, but c'mon....is Mr. Steve Nieve grossly underrated or what? The man is totally awesome! I am so hoping and praying that I will be one of the lucky fans to get tickets to EC (who I am assuming will be playing w/Steve in support of North) in N...

I paid about $100 US for it. A decent price I think. I lost out on 1 auction a few days ago with a bid of $120. What do you all think? Anyway, I can't wait to listen to it!

ARGH! I guess I'll just have to sit hear waiting jealoulsy for September 9 while all you Brits enjoy your reissues.

Reissues?!? I don't even see them on Amazon.com yet, although I can order North today if I want to and get it in September.

I ask because last week saw the release of 2 must-have items that have been noticeably missing from the band's catalogue - a live DVD and a live CD. Oh, and What a DVD (actually 2 DVDs)! 5 HOURS of Zep - almost 4 hours of concert footage from different tours between 1970 and 1979, including what app...

Hey, I'm here! Thanks a lot Taz. It was really nice of you to take the time to do this. I wouldn't even know how!
