Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Jackson - see my post about HMV on 16th also. Whilst you're in London, you gotta get along there!

...on Tuesday 16th September with Steve from 12.30pm playing songs from and signing copies of his new album North.

As reported on C4 teletext yesterday.

Anyone up for it?

Cheers John.

I also saw on C4 teletext that Elvis and Steve are at HMV Oxford Street on Tuesday 16th September at 12.30pm playing songs from and signing his new album North.

I'll post it on the main board just in case.

Miss BA - phew - I'll bet you're glad it's all over. When do you get your results? As far as "Will I ever again face being called upon to discuss the relationship of André Breton's Nadja to the Romantic conception of the woman? Or the medieval antecedents to Rabelaisian humor? Good God, I hope ...

White Knuckles - a straightforward tale of domestic violence. Not one of my particular faves but it has simple lyrics and not too much - if anything - for you to work out for yourself or misinterpret.

Try

Blue Chair

Perhaps this should be left to our man on the board himself...

Fantastic frank. We expect a full report.

See what joining this website can achieve?

Probably somewhere in Elvis' vaults. It'll show up on the 15th reissue (which we'll all still be buying!).

Personally it's a track I'm happy to skip. Even Elvis isn't keen on it. He said somewhere along the line that it sounded like it was being made up as he went along and probably was.

Cope - there could be a fight to determine who can use the name Spooky Girlfriend. We've already got one that we all know and love!

Rope...unfortunately the Jag does not belong to me, but my girlfriend's ex boyfriend! But he drives us around alot in Copenhagen Is it me or does this seem a bit weird? :? Did the ex-boyfriend take the picture too? :? And Cope - what are you looking for in the picture?! And I thought Canada was lib...

I wonder if Gazza and Elv will be in the studio at the same time

*cue the very strange thought of Gaz and Elv duetting*

...and this explains why I have multiple versions of the same CD in my collection. Am I likely to listen to the Ryko version of PTC because of the two live versions rather than the Rhino 2 CD set. Well, yes,at some stage I know I will. I am going off to bang my head against the wall and question my ...

Maybe he won't actually do the appearance - like when he was meant to be on This Morning or one of those banal TV mo(u)rning shows.

I actually taped it whilst I was at work and wasn't sure if I was pleased or not when he wasn't on it.

Ooh, can I have another go?

"If I was a sculpturer
But then again, no."

Fat Reg and Bernie could come up with some classics couldn't they?

Superb, although I will only be listening for "eighties electro superstar Gary Numan."

Pills and Soap - a fascinating indictment of a troubled time. Thatcher's Britain was not the place to be. Bit like Blair's Britain really.

I nominate

Watch Your Step

Is anyone going?

Apart from me...

Fantastic. Will EC adapt Tramp The Dirt Down and reinclude the "live" lyrics he used to do such as "kicking the Royal cuckoos out of their nest"? Somehow I doubt it. He'll probably be all "Sarah" this and "Sarah" that! Expect some networking and a wedding at S...

Da do do do
Da da da da
Is all I want to say to you

No wonder Elvis loves Sting!

Erudite!

I got it too. And signed up for it.

Can't wait to see what "exclusives" we get...!

This article is in the Mirror today:- "THE Duchess of York is branching out to become a DJ. Next week, she'll be co-hosting the Steve Wright show on Radio 2 from Tuesday to Thursday. As well as joining the usual banter with Wright, with whom she apparently gets on well, the Duchess will be intr...

I can't believe he's snubbing Dublin.

He hasn't put in a Liverpool date either...

Well done Bluec Hair!

As I've not been on the board long, when were you in Nottingham? If it was a while ago perhaps you could give us a description. Was it any different then as to how it is now?!

I am currently sporting a shaved number 1 cut for all you haircut fans!

So are those anti-Houllier words coming back to haunt you?

And no doubt we're all sad about Man U!

My own personal "wash your ears out" mishearing moment was when I went to one of the Confederates shows at the Royal Albert Hall and EC did a solo spot. He decided to play a new song called (according to my ears anyway) "Any Cane Sugar". It took two years for Spike to come out be...
