This is great. Costello puts on one of the best shows I've ever seen.

Pearl Jam should really look into getting a go-go dancer on stage with them.

Or a wheel of fortune. I'd be cool with either of those really.

Yeah, that's actually a pretty good idea for a band with a catalog like PJ's... have a wheel with about 50 songs titles on stage. Start your show by playing whatever you want, then halfway through the set start bringing fans up to spin the wheel. Adds a whole other kitschy showbiz factor to the proceedings.



I think the band takes themselves too seriously to do this, though. And can you imagine adamdude's posts?!

Actually, I'm pretty sure the greatest concert idea ever for anybody not Tom Waits was having Tom Waits emcee your gig.

Do you know if a recording of that show exists?

If it does, I've not seen it. There was a youtube video up briefly that looked like a pro shot of the show...audio was crap, though. It vanished and was never seen from again, so far as I know.
