Crazy's "C" cds...

[CRAZY-HORSE]

on vinyl only...I'll stick with the vinyl!

i forgot to add...my Get Happy vinyl was signed by him many years ago...a treasured possession now!

[SteveO]

Wow, how did that happen ?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

pure fluke SteveO....
i had to go to the airport to pick someone up(maybe my parents?) and i knew Elvis would be coming in that day also for his gig the next day so i grabbed one of my vinyls and took it with me on the off chance he may be there at that particular time...
and low and behold while i was waiting for my parents i was keeping an eye out on the arrivals lounge, anyway, sure enough this guy came through who i thought looked like Elvis Costello...
i hesitated until i was sure it was him...
then,because no-one else went up to him i thought either m the only one who recognises him or its not him...
i got up and followed him out to the terminal carpark and a limo pulled up, i thought, thats gotta be him so i got close enough and called out "hey,Elvis"...and he turned around and looked over the top of his sunglasses...
i just asked him something like "hey man, love your music,going to your show tomorrow, been a longtime fan so would you mind signing my album"
from memory he said something like..."sure thing" and "whats your favourite album"...
i blurted out something stupid like "love over gold"...obviously he meant whats your favourite album of mine then he replied "i cant recall making one with that title"....
man, i was so embarrassed,
as he got in his car he said somehting like..."hope you enjoy the gig"

end of story.

lmao
what a complete dufus you were
hope Elvis was a Dire Sraits fan

[CRAZY-HORSE]

SteveO....can i please have my "king of the dufus'" crown back!

[SteveO]

ha ha ha ...you can have the crown bro!!!!,,,great story by the way nevertheless! I am wondering now if Elvis still remembers that kid in Australia who told him his favourite album was by another artist!!!!...lol...priceless!
