elvis is everywhere!
Joe called me at work this morning with a delightful surprise...we're going to see Elvis! The show is at the Fleet Boston Pavilion on the wharf, where I saw Duran Duran a few years back (yes yes, I was a Duranie...can't WAIT for their 25 anniversary reunion tour!).
Both of us are longtime Elvis fans, but especially Joe. Funny enough, for being the music lovers that we are, this is the first actual concert (i.e. not in a bar) that we've gone to together.
Elvis, was, rightfully so, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year. Oooo I can't wait to see him perform. I know he has a new album coming out in September, called North, so this tour must be in advance of that. Still, I'm really hoping to hear Everyday I Write the Book, Accidents Will Happen, Veronica, Watching the Detectives...he's got 100s of songs though...how difficult it must be to figure out what to perform.
As for other things...got my computer back and I'm sunburnt but had a fabulously lazy weekend...

I thought I was going to have to give you some bad news about Elvis, until I saw you were talking about Elvis Costello. His stock went up with me when he married Diana Krall. Hubba Hubba (her, I mean).

Gah! I am more out of it than I thought. I thought Elvis was still with the Pogues chick, Cait O'Riordan. Wow. I went to find out more and here's the link. I'm not too terribly out of it though--it was only a few months ago...
