Greatest songwriter in history.
Worst mimer.

Given Nick Lowe's tendencies towards studio recordings these last many years, I would seriously doubt a "rave up" theme.

A Costello album, with a Nick Lowe approach similar to (say) "Dig My Mood", could be a theoretical marvel.

I like how nobody suggested that his kid wear a different outfit.

No collaboration.
In 1980, I wanted my Costello pure Costello.

With all due respect, you're all mistaken -- other than the gentleman that I have now "quoted".

Awww -- that's no fun.
Thank you for the input, however...

Elmo seems to be going flashy with the wardrobe on this tour. I like it.

It harkens back to my first Costello concert -- February 1978, Zellerbach Auditorium, Berkeley CA. After a cacophonus display on his Fender Jazzmaster, for the better part of an hour, he came o...

I doubt that Costello would drag Sebastian Krys's name into the fray of a charade.

Oh shit. First that I've heard of this.
Don't know that I could justify missing it.

Without checking, I believe that it was: "May peace prevail".
(Perhaps I'm wrong...)

All the Rage.
Always welcome.

Black Sails in the Sunset would be nice.
Big Sister might work, with a backing vocal arrangement added..

OK -- Charm School and Crawling to the USA.

This is developing some intrigue.

I had never been aware of this. I had assumed that any reference, or affiliation, was Krall-related.

(The Live Stiffs component seems a bit dubious, I must say...)

Yup. No doubt.
Good to hear that he's still got it.

Yikes.
Awful news.
