Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

Me!

Just leaving now and hopefully miss the Red Dogs parade. Not the ideal location to head for today as a Derby fan!!

Enjoy. No spoilers, but based on Leeds last night, you'll have a great night. He's very relaxed, chatty and funny (or he was last night!), and plucking out a few nicely obscure numbers to play.

Great night and well worth the extra CD I bought to buy a ticket. In fact they offered me another CD when I checked in at the venue not realising I had received it by post already. Obviously I refused the extra one.

Elvis was in great form, very funny and very relaxed. The only thing I noted is I’ve never heard him so sweary with the ‘F’ word used multiple times. I thought he also had a stronger scouse twang than usual. Maybe both because he was so relaxed and being his more natural self.

I picked up a copy of the Rusty CD. I haven’t played it yet but the tracks played on the night sounded great.

Roll on Brighton next Monday.

Are you aware of something I’m not? The Brighton show I’m going to is on Sunday :lol: Hope I see you there.

I’ve heard only great reviews of these shows.

Elvis is definitely more relaxed in a speaking environment.
Who’s this kid with his mumbo jumbo?

Well spotted, it is Sunday. I'm going to the Stone Valley Festival South on Thursday to Saturday and driving to Brighton on Sunday. The Bank Holidays have thrown me.

Hope to see you there :lol:
