Re: Elvis/Brodskys, Birmingham (U.K.) April 24 '09

Sounds interesting. I'll be at Glasgow,never seen the Brodsky's live so it'll be a change. Looking forward to it. Anyone care to speculate on what these 10 new arrangements might be...? Accidents Will Happen & Shipbuilding seem likely, but I wonder what else might be planned. I'll hazard a guess...
