Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Just got back from the Houston Symphony show. In general, a tighter sounding show than Austin. ATUB felt more rehearsed on its second play. Hora Decubitus showed up in the encore tonight, complete with Elvis on electric guitar taking the solo when the song goes into the sorta "swing" secti...

In response to JEM's questions: It started quite promptly at 8pm. Austin is a bad judge of dress code for just about anything---its a very "slacker casual" kind of town, where you can walk into just about any restaurant in town dressed in jeans and a t shirt. Most people were dressed "...

I got last minute tickets to the Dallas show and drove from Austin to Dallas and back again...its 3am here now, but I'm still coming down off the show. I have the rest of that setlist. I remembered paper and a pen this time! King Horse Uncomplicated Clown Strike Man Out Of Time Button My Lip Country...

As far as I know its just a Lost Highway showcase. If you didn't get a SXSW wristband, I've heard there will be some made available tomorrow at Waterloo Records ($150 per I think...) There's a whole lot of good music besides EC this week at various SXSW venues. My plan for getting into that show is ...
