Re: Costello "official" website

I'll let my $ stay with them but how do we actually selected that option. It's really too bad that this didn't take off. The entire free show at the El Rey this summer in Los Angeles was taped (not just the two they elected to post on the site) and it would have been great to get that show. I was fo...

Re: Elvis when you least expect it

U2's new song Get On Your Boots with a reviewer's reference to Elvis and Pump it Up. Pundits are already splitting hairs about "GOYB" -- does it sound like Elvis Costello circa "Pump It Up" or the Temptations classic "Ball of Confusion"? Both connections are plausible,...

Re: Elvis on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Sept 30, 2008

I unfortunately can't make it to the taping, but when I went to set TiVo, it had Elvis on Jimmy Kimmel on Wednesday, October 1 so I'm not sure what's going on.

Regardless, to those who do go, have a great time.

Just got the same email. Signed in but couldn't see either of the El Rey videos. Has anyone been able to see them online?

Thanks.

Re: Elvis guesting in LA show, Sept 27 '08 ?

This is great news but I'm a little confused. What does "LA" refer to? I thought Los Angeles, but both of these shows are in the Bay area (Oakland and San Francisco). Also, does the GAMH show include Elvis? The way I read the link is that Nick Lowe seems to be the headliner. I had one of t...

Re: Elvis/Imps+ ,' free show' , El Rey , LA May 28 '08

I must say that this was an incredible evening. First the Bowl show then the El Rey. Quite the experience. A few thoughts, impressions, etc. First, thank you PH for getting me up close. Second, for what it’s worth, there was a guy video taping the show and afterwards I asked who he was taping it fo...

Re: Elvis/Police, Hollywood Bowl, May 27 (Tues)

Last night's show rocked. Elvis sounded great, seemed to be in a good mood and the Imposters were (as usual) great. Great seeing my fellow Elvis fans on their feet and by the end of the show I think even the most ardent Police fans had to doff their cap to Elvis. The new songs flowed greatly with th...

John, I apologize if I put too much into my post. I have been hesitant to post anything on this site as I didn't want to offend anyone. I was just putting what I thought might be of interest based on what I've seen in other threads. Like most everyone on this site I have a huge appreciation of Elvis...

Re: Elvis/Police, Hollywood Bowl, May 27 (Tues)

I'm going to both shows. Totally psyched to see Elvis again. I didn't think The Police were as bad as the comments here have suggested. I saw the Dodger Stadium show last summer with the Foo Fighters opening and really like both of the acts. I also saw The Police back in the day at the Forum and at ...

Re: Where have heard momofuku?

There is a radio station 100.3 "The Sound" here in L.A. that has a new format that I'm still trying to figure out. Well, as I'm driving around this past Saturday they followed up an older Elvis song that I missed with No Hidding Place. This was the only time I've heard any Elvis song from ...

I bought it on vinyl and cd. Figured it would be nice to have the large cover of the lp.
