Re: Looks like an ELVIS & IMPOSTERS TOUR for 2021
They sure are rolling out the live-show announcements slowly, eh? Does anyone have any info on further upcoming dates? (I, of course, am particularly interested in NYC...)

Re: New album with the Imposters in 2021?
I feel unable to express my nitpicky opinions after this now :D Well, I'll recover, don't worry :D don't forget, different people have different experiences. For me EC is a national treasure for all the amazing things he's done in the past (and influencing several decades of my life). He certainly ...

Re: New album with the Imposters in 2021?
Apologies for the harshness of my initial post. I’ve been a fan of this site for many years and certainly was not referring to anyone here with my “least loyal fan base” comments. I suppose, just like most of the dedicated followers here, I’m just constantly perturbed/mystified by the ongoing lack ...

Re: 2021 Live Dates?
I'm sure it'll be at least a short tour.
My prayer: Please let there be 1) No video backdrop on stage and 2) No backup singers.

This is getting a bit "thin," isn't it? What next, a limited edition 7" of "No Flag" played backward?

Re: New album Hey Clockface released October 30, 2020
Agree with topbalc and Hawk...except for the part about these recent records equaling EC's 70s-80s stuff. That's crazy talk. But yes! How lucky are we that he's not only still active, but doing interesting and different work here in 2020. It's a blessing. I long ago reconciled myself to the reality ...

I hear that the EC piece in New York Magazine/Vulture this week is very good...but it's behind a paywall. Anyone out there with access to it willing to share?

You're right. My bad. I was/am, in fact, grouched up and it got the better of me. Steve has done yeoman's work bringing these performances to us. I'm very grateful.

Re: C & N New York 1996 2CD - legit?
Wish I'd seen the late show. I was at the early show, which was "challenging." Lots of idiots in the crowd--shouting, talking during the performance. EC was peeved, as was I.

Re: The Writers Garden Live - EC to appear on Saturday, September 12, 2020
EC played "Nightingale" (Brinsley Schwarz) and "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding?" (also Brinsley Schwarz). He watched as Chris Difford (with Melvin Duffy accompanying) played "Messed Around" but did not participate. Difford also played "Cool ...
