Great to have Elvis with us. He has The best lyrics and always a surprise for me. I have been a fan since 1977 and he's always at his best when he makes noise. And has a mission and he's on a mission.
Elvis and the Imposters are an AWESOME band! I've beena fan since the beginning ....1977....Pete and Steve have been with Elvis since the beginning and Davey was a great replacement for Bruce..Elvis is an incredible artist.....played with Burt Bacharach AND the legendary Chet Baker who adapted Elviss Almost Blue as his signature piece....!! Amazing!!
Not too many musical geniuses left in popular music/rock n roll. I'm thankful that I'll see this one again this coming September. Don't have a lot of money to spend on concerts these days but I'll spend what I do have to see him as long as we are both able. Having missed him last year due to reconstructive shoulder surgery the day before (it took me a good part of the day and urging from my family to make that decision) I've promised myself never to miss him again.
One of my fondest memories was when EC played at the Hay on Wye book festival several years ago. I couldn't get tickets instead, I was camping on a hillside half a mile away with my young family. It was incredible.
Can't beat Mike and Steve sticking around all these years. They always know every song inside out. Elvis could write a song on stage and they would be right there with him.
You would be forgiven for thinking EC and the guys were the most popular band in Brazil at the time. Elvis has the audience singing back to him like he was Freddie Mercury.
I've seen EC over 50 times live and this is one the best fuil shows I've seen...the band sounds awesome, Elvis is in great voice and everyone is having a great time!!!....thanks for posting this priceless gem....BTW...I'm sad to report Elvis can't sing anymore..I just saw him a week ago and he was terrible...nick Lowe sounded perfect....it broke my heart about Elvis ...second bad show in a row I've seen with him
Saw him in July and I loved it. Some songs were a bit tough for him to stay in tune (Comedians and Accidents Will Happen), as you say, but mostly it he rocked. The last 30 or maybe even 45 minutes were the best I've ever seen in live concert and I've seen some great shows, with Pump It Up, I Want You, Alisson and a lot from the amazing new record. Some people still defend Paul McCartney's voice and I don't get them either, but Elvis is still absolutely worth the money imho

It's great that this performance got captured so well. Bristling with energy, the band pours it on. Davey Faragher is a much better singer than Bruce Thomas ever was and plays a more solid Bass than he ever did as well.
I don't know how good Bruce was, but I also don't like people crapping over Davey out of nostalgia, he's an outstanding bass player. Otherwise EC wouldn't work with him.
One of the best concerts I have listened to. I have attended and listened to a lot of multi genre concerts! I want you was an epic !

Rocks so good! This is an Elvis Costello I didn’t hear when these concerts were not available. Fucking awesome!
Elvis fuckin rocks

Most underrated artist! Amazing concert!
What a special time for the band as right between the amazing Delivery Man and then the fantastic River in Reverse albums

Who is Mike? Do you mean Pete Thomas the drummer?

The drummer and the kb player are the same from SNL 77 performance?
Yeah. Pete Thomas and Steve Nieve. They play with him until today.
It's great that this performance got captured so well. Bristling with energy, the band pours it on. Davey Faragher is a much better singer than Bruce Thomas ever was and plays a more solid Bass than he ever did as well.
