Elvis Costello and The Imposters
Warner Theatre
Washington, DC
November 3, 2016


Longest show so far of the Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers Tour. Elvis and The Imposters plus two female background vocalists playing 1982’s Imperial Bedroom, plus other songs he deems associated with it. A great eclectic long show filled with rare and almost never played tunes. A real treat. Just shy of 3 hours. Mix-wise the best sounding show so far. Let’s face it, for some crazy reason these shows have been plagued with sound problems, but there now seen to have gotten it together. Samples below.

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