After a long musical break I had the opportunity last night to see Elvis Costello for the second time at Trib Total Media Amphitheatre in Station Square. On this tour Costello is using the gimmick of featuring a large wheel on stage with various "hits" from various points in his career. Audience members were asked on stage to spin the wheel and then whatever song came up, the band was supposed to perform the song. An interesting idea and it let Elvis flirt with some pretty girls that were brought up on stage although I noticed that he tended to ignore the results from the wheel and find a reason to play pretty much whatever song he wanted. In the end this was a solid concert although not as strong as his "greatest hits" tour of a few years ago which I caught in Baltimore. This clip features Costello's "Watching The Detectives." You will notice at the beginning of the clip that the show featured a go-go cage at the left of the stage which usually contained a dancing girl.
