Re: Elvis UK Tour 2013
Can anyone throw any light on why the UK tour with 17 dates is called the 13 Revolvers tour? 13 Revolvers.jpg Any relation to 13 steps lead down (to the auditorium)? Does this suggest that four dates will not feature the wheel? MOOT ...........or is it just that next year is 2013 ? :wink:

Re: Elvis/Imposters - Royal Albert Hall 24th May 2012
Following last night's RAH show, there seems to be a fair chance that someone other than Elvis and the Imposters and a succession of spinners will grace the stage of the RAH. The BibleCode Sundays won't be there, but otherwise a list of possible "guests" might include: Martin Belmont T-Bo...

Video: Shipbuilding / Trouble / Folsom Prison Blues http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT-R7dBshGw Was it particularly warm in the theatre last night? I know EC can work up a good sweat, but his suit is absolutely drenched during Shipbuilding. I was front row and when his arms were down sweat was dripp...

Re: Elvis/The Imposters, London, May 23 2012
They're a very friendly lot: they even let my friend who isn't a forum member join the circle last night (some say standards are slipping). Sounds good ! Thought there might be a secret password, special handshake, a "wear a carnation and stand under a clock", or a "nudge,nudge,wink,...

Re: Elvis/The Imposters, London, May 23 2012
Here's hoping they sort the sound out before we get there tonight. Who else is going? The usual crowd will be there again, including Verbal, Sulky Lad, Natasha, The Roofdog (if he can get a ticket), and myself and (I think) So Lacklustre?. We plan to meet up again in "The Goat" on Kensing...

Re: Elvis/The Imposters, London, May 23 2012
Who's going? Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ! Going both nights at RAH and can't wait ! I don't ever remember being so "up" for an EC gig before. Despite having seen him dozens of times over the years going right back to the early 80s and days of The Rainbow and Hammy Palais , I never got to see ...

Re: Elvis/'Spinning , UK tour , May 2012
Hi all ! Has anyone recieved their Albert Hall tickets yet coz I ordered them for both nights on the day the info came out, and nothing has arrived yet. I'm sure it's still a bit too early but thought I'd just check. I've had mine from the Ticket Factory for a couple of weeks now but nothing as yet...

Re: EC in London (Meltdown Festival), June 20
I've only just found this site( isn't it great ! ) , despite following the great man for well over 30 years now ( God that makes me feel old ! ), and went to see him at the Festival Hall. First time seeing him live for a few years now and I thought it was a superb. I felt it was a very personal show...
