Elvis Costello & the SF Symphony


the performance began with Il Sogno, Costello's score to a ballet production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. then he got up and sang a bunch of his own songs, including ones recorded with the Brodsky Quartet and Burt Bacharach. he finished the set by putting down the microphone for the last song, projecting his voice and getting the crowd to sing along. i've seen Elvis before, but this was a really special show, made even more so by the Irish coffee i chugged at intermission.
