7/12/1977 Philadelphia
6/6/84 Tokyo
6/7/86 Werchter
14/5/96 Los Angeles

Individual tracks from Peel sessions turn up now and again in good quality on various BBC programmes - heres a recent one of Mystery Dance (1 hour 15 mins in):

It's 11,000 capacity is for full hall, going by the photos they reconfigured it to around half or a third of that size. Still, I said when it was announced it was a strange venue choice, way too big for an artist with whom Belfast has an uneasy relationship. By which I mean, there were long periods ...

Pretty sure the Imposters did Moods for Moderns as fill in music during the Spinning Songbook tours

Different from the recorded version if I recall correctly.

I'm going to see The Undertones tomorrow in Dublin. The support act will be The Trouble Pilgrims , which is made up of surviving members of the Radiators From Space . Steve Averill is one of them. Steve designed sleeves for Elvis's albums in the 1990s. #touchedbythehandofdeclan No support act for t...

Interview to promote this - about 15 minutes into this - http://www.todayfm.com/player/listen_back/9/29039/12th_May_2016_-_The_Paul_McLoone_Show_Part_2 The interviewer, Paul McLoone, is the singer with the Undertones (who I'm going to see tonight in Belfast), who are also playing the Galway festiva...

I will miss this one as I'll be in the US on that date. I've been at every Costello gig in Belfast since 1978, so not happy!

SSE Arena is a strange choice, it's a cavernous ice hockey arena, 6,000+ capacity, really only suitable for big arena shows.

Would Shannon be closer, John?

The 'Tones are doing a 40th anniversary tour, I'm going to see them in Belfast in May. Not quite the same without Feargal. BTW, they credit EC for advising them to use Roger Bechirian as a producer, he (EC) met them at a TOTP recording late 78.

Steve Naive played on the Bowie/Jagger cover of Dancing in the street

Actually, posting that jogged my memory that I saw Any Trouble on one of the Stiff tours, Belfast 1980ish. They were great.

[quote="johnfoyle"]Nothing to do with Steve and only remotely to do with Elvis in that this lot got , rather unfairly , described as 'Elvis & The Attractions light' back in the day , I'm going to see Any Trouble at this venue in Liverpool on Sunday , Dec. 6th. I'm going to be flying in...

So, one tiny error per 10,000 words, is it? For a homeopathic dilution of one hundred parts per million... ;) I know, its a bit pedantic! But actually, it lessened the impact of what must have seemed a neat line - Queen's Hall and Queen's soldiers. I could forgive dodgy memory on a venue (which is ...

Well John, one mistake right there. The 78 Belfast show was in the Ulster Hall. There is/was no such place as the Queen's Hall.

Link won't work for me?

Was it George in his Northern Ireland kit?

Caught a quick glimpse of Ron Sexsmith on BBC Andrew Married show Sunday morning with Steve on piano
