I went to see Elvis Costello

It was an awesome show. If you’re a fan you know he plays a wide variety of music. He played this song on piano. I’d never heard it before, and it hit me hard right there in the middle of all these people at the concert. Although my eyes filled, thankfully I didn’t actually cry. Lol. He followed with a twisted version of Watching the Detective, and it pulled me back into a festive mood.

I saw him soon after his first album. He did most of the songs from his second album which hadn't been released yet. A good show even though no one was familiar with most of the songs.

I saw him on Saturday Night Live when got partway into a song and then stopped and did "Radio Radio" and was banned for years. I was waiting outside Peaches, a huge record store, the next morning when they opened. I was sure there would be a big rush to get his album. They had a few copies. I seemed to be the only one who cared.

@hunkalove I’ve seen that snl vid. And he did it again more recently, but of course it was planned.
