Elvis Costello and The Imposters
Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall
Portland, Or
July 8, 2015


A Steely Dan-less headlining show from Elvis and the Imposters. (I still don’t get that pairing). A great, solid show, but the encore break coming early sorta gave the show an odd pace - the impression of a really short show in the works. Two long encores later, that did’t happen.

Cool eclectic setlist. Great venue. Three Wise Up Ghost Songs. And lots of Elvis guitar noise. Samples below. Recorded about ten rows back dead center. A great sounding show.


If burning to CD follow the disc breaks below. If not, the show will play seamless.
