Elvis Costello- Radio, Radio
“You either shut up or get cut out;
they don’t wanna hear about it.
It’s only inches on the reel-to-reel.
And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
tryin’ to anaesthetise the way that you feel”
Remember that time that I went to see Bob Dylan at Terminal 5 and Elvis Costello was there? Yeah, it happened.
Tara and I were looking over the balcony across to the other side of the room and I spotted a man wearing thick framed glasses and a fedora. I said to Tara, “Tara, that guy over there looks a lot like Elvis Costello!” She said, “Yeah he really does but I doubt it’s him.” And I said, “No, Tara, I really think its him!” Well, then Bob Dylan came on the stage, so everything else ever became completely irrelevant.
But then, of course, the next day I’m reading everything I can about the show and oh, look at that! Elvis Costello was there. Who knows an Elvis Costello when she sees one? This girl!
I took a long-overdue trip to the record store today. In other news, there are so many creepers in this picture: me, Bob, Elvis, AND Audrey. And I guess the “war pig” dude on the Black Sabbath cover too. He’s actually the creepiest if you really look at him.
