Entertaining evening I always enjoy the reworking of familiar songs to just guitar or piano. Also good to hear album tracks that dont usually get an airing with the full band. Only downside and its probably just me but I just dont get people going crazy for she. If you want covers stick with the Nick Lowe ones.

So what did we think? Personally, I thought Elvis himself was on great form but was let down by an audience who couldn't sit down for one f**king minute!
Support act was hilarious by the way
Next time go see James

Maybe he should have sung ' I can't stand up for falling down' or change it to 'I can't stand up '
Not one person would have been sitting down watching Elvis Costello in 1979.

I have never seen anyone sit down at a gig at the Dome! I thought it was traditional to trash at least the front 6 rows of seats?

Saw the warm up for this tour at Bexhill a while ago and his voice was great.

Never a big fan on record but understand from a friend who has seen him live that he gives 110% - saw part of his Glastonbury set on tv a year or so ago and certainly got that impression.

I would have loved it if everyone could have stood! It was the fact that everyone had to keep standing up to let the same lot go off for multiple toilet breaks/the bar
The One Show isn't famed for having the best acoustics
Sounded fantastic last night for sure.
