EC solo tours 2014 tally: LAST YEAR OF HIS YOUTH

[verbal gymnastics]

Nicola76 told me Sulky Girl was soundchecked at Bexhill and it was on the setlist but not played. I wonder if it was played in Belgium.

[bronxapostle]

only one added yesterday in Belgium, which takes us to 130 before summer vacation. we will continue this down the road apiece.

What I've enjoyed is how Elvis has embraced his very early days with Jump Up, Poison Moon, etc as well as Ghost Train and, as one reviewer put it, the Holy Grail of Dr Luther's Assistant. It's also been good that he's played a "straight" version of Alison and left out Pump It Up and the regularity of I Want You.

I'm looking forward to the solo tour part 2. It'll be interesting to see what the Imposters shows bring.

Ann Arbor make-up show added now. four played for the first time solo this year....now at 134 if my math is correct

[veronicacostello]

Ghost Train was my Holy Grail in Ann Arbor. I shot up out of my seat to applaud and I think I scared my seat neighbors.

[bronxapostle]

two added for first night on the autumn leg in Finland. many shows (and songs i'd bet) to be added by end of October. now at 136

[bronxapostle]

RANDERS, DENMARK ADDS SEVEN AND WE ARE UP TO 143!

[bronxapostle]

Malmo debuts two more on this years solo shows tally...at 145 now.

[bronxapostle]

Gothenburg adds three more: 148!

According to one of the reviews he started Town Cryer with a few lines on Neil Young's "Love in mind". Does this count?

it counted ALREADY! back in June first night at Carnegie Hall VG!
i hate to update when we do NOT have a complete setlist, but...looks like Norway has not enough paper and pen.
so first night thus far adds two getting us to 150. we anxiously await complete setlist for each: 10-1 and 2 Norwegian style.

So it did

Just keeping you on your toes

i've said it before, i'll say it again: my (OUR) obsession with all these things, always welcome all proofreaders and clarifications. thanks for chiming in VG! STEP RIGHT UP ONE AND ALL!

[verbal gymnastics]

STEP RIGHT UP ONE AND ALL!

Particularly you Scandinavians - we are VERY short of setlists

[bronxapostle]

October 4th adds April 5th and three more for at least 154 now

[bronxapostle]

THE BEAT 10-5 in Linköping, Sweden takes us to 155. is this the first time SOLO for this great tune?

I think so.

[FAVEHOUR]

Probably the first time since he opened for The Rumour at the Nashville Rooms (just guessing!)

[bronxapostle]

late October 2nd addition for I'M NOT ANGRY being played now brings us to 156 songs!

[bronxapostle]

first two nights in Germany add seven: 163.

[bronxapostle]

did i read correctly somewhere the other day....i have to subtract some songs???

[bronxapostle]

alright...just viewed ANCT matrix and see my three needing deletion. now done. semi accurately at 160 (still some FULL setlists missing, i think.)

[bronxapostle]

two more debuts from THE NEW BASEMENT TAPES appear 10-12...at 162 now.

and forgive me, i now see i missed two other debuts this evening: BOTTLE LET ME DOWN and SCARLET TIDE. now at 164!

[verbal gymnastics]

At 164 he's halfway to my original guess of 333. Come on Elvis - if anyone can make up 169 songs in a dozen gigs, it's you
