A Stunning Return
Elvis treated fans to a lengthy show, replete with his personal "deep-dive" songs representing a diversity of musical influences. Fans were, of course, given a selection of hits and other well known fan favorites, from a broad swath of albums spanning the decades. The sound system was excellent, and while at times. Costello's voice showed the wear of touring at the age of 69, it certainly didn't detract from the overall presentation of the songs. Most of the time, and increasingly evident as the show progressed, Costello peeled back the years with his voice hitting just the right crescendos and all of the melodic twists and turns of his songs. The crowd, at it's feet, was finally presented with I Want You as the show closer, an emotionally devastating confession of desire, no, obsession, accompanied by the wailing dissonance of the guitars of Elvis and Charlie Sexton. A must-see experience for EC fans! All in a beautiful theater, designed to heighten the concert-going experience.
