thank you doc..that is some SOUND. what was it a webcast? a GREAT version is right Dave. HAPPY 4th ECFF friends! benny

[Little Fool]

Sounds like Cornbury was good, I'm looking forward to next year, particularly the re-scheduled Basingstoke gig.
As regards the smiling issue, these days he is positively jovial and jocular compared to some performances I saw in the late 70's and early 80's.
In those days he was quite vitriolic and you almost thought that he hated his audience, all added to the atmosphere of the time I suppose. I have attended a number of gigs where a guitar was not in the right place or the sound wasn't 100% and you could just sense that some poor roadie or technician was really going to get it when the gig finished.
That said, it was always exciting and high energy, even the Albert Hall gig when the crowd got out of hand and took the seats apart and started using the bases as frisbees !!!!!!!!!!
Difficult to imagine this sort of behavior at a current Costello gig

English Country Garden riff in 'Chelsea- yay!

Also near the end of PL&U too, I think.

Anyone recognize the riff Steve plays during the band intro later in Chelsea?

Ha, ha, methinks he must have been a very angry young man back then! From what you're saying it seems he's mellowed a bit, but I still wouldn't fancy getting on the wrong side of him! Luck for me he was in a good mood when I met him after the Bournemouth gig. <Sighs... goes off into pleasant daydream, remembering EC putting his arm around me while a photo was taken.>

Deleted as realised my earlier post got duplicated somehow.

Sounds like Je t'aime, Jane Birkin/Serge Gainsbourg

Oh hai guys. I'm the guy who shot the video of 'Tramp the dirt down' that someone kindly linked to earlier in the thread. I was extremely fortunate enough to be able to watch the set from Stage right due to being an inveterate ligger, having some influential friends and an EC fanatic for more years than me an Mrs Ant have been together. That's 33 years.
It was a great set, but I confess that the day was spoiled for me by bumping into Cameron in the VIP tent and, because I was so concerned to see Elvis later on I didn't deck him. Mrs Ant made up for that a little by calling him a "F***ing W***er"* to his face when she came face to face with him away from his kids (won't someone please think of the kids ).
It was a honour to be on his stage though, and I'd like to thank those who made it possible.

Here's a coupla pics of the day


Elvis's own set list

Some F***ing W***er texting his wife:

"Sam, how mny childs do we hv. Iz 1 ov dem vry thin wv pnk n grn hair?"

Thanks for the YT views, nice site.

Thanks Illegal, all good information, sounds like you've got great kids - you didn't also happen to catch Cameron's face during Tramp The Dirt Down did you? And did you kids get to insult Rebecka Brookes as well?

Actually just looked back to set as played and no Tramp The Dirt - what the hell, did Elvis lose his bottle! Hard to believe...

[IllegalCombatAnt]

It's OK, he played Tramp, second song in encore. It's there on the set list, but he didn't stick absolutely to the set list.
I've no idea if shinyface saw the set, I was too busy 'acting like a grown-up' which was the price I had to pay to be on the stage. I had to call in some big favours to get there, it was basically a closed stage. I can guarantee that even Cameron's connections wouldn't have got him on that stage. One of the bands that played earlier tried to get on there and they were politely told "No".

I've been to 'Poshstock' several times over the years, I manage to wangle comps as I'm a bit of an old ligger, but I won't be going back while the Chipping Norton set are in charge of the country. I found the sight and sound of all the posho tossers too much to stomach. Being in the VIP tent brought a bit of sick into my mouth.

Elvis was in a much better mood when I saw him at Brizzle Colston a month ago.

[Paul B]

Thanks and apologies if I thought you had kids there insulting our nations unbeloved leader - it's called speed reading and blogging rather too late at night!

[verbal gymnastics]

I have attended a number of gigs where a guitar was not in the right place or the sound wasn't 100% and you could just sense that some poor roadie or technician was really going to get it when the gig finished.

I saw this at one of the recent gigs when the roadie brought out the wrong guitar.

That said, it was always exciting and high energy, even the Albert Hall gig when the crowd got out of hand and took the seats apart and started using the bases as frisbees !!!!!!!!!!
Difficult to imagine this sort of behavior at a current Costello gig

When did that happen - I've been to quite a few shows at the Royal Albert Hall and I've never seen that.

I bet it was the show with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

And of course it wouldn't happen nowadays - those same people are too busy checking their stock options, tweeting or loudly telling the person in the next seat how this is their favourite song and when he did it in 1989 etc etc

Nice pro shot video:

Thanks, Doc, I forgot to post anything about it here!

This hat looks great! I notice he has been wearing mostly lower end hipster straws. This fur felt has more of a vintage look to it which is much better IMO. I am a big time vintage hat collector and use to post as sabreman.
