Elvis Costello In 2013

Elvis Costello is taking his Spectacular Spinning Songbook for another spin through the United Kingdom next spring. We’ve got presale information for the tour, which features more than a dozen gigs in May and June.

The Spectacular Spinning Songbook, which the singer/songwriter’s website describes as a “gigantic vaudevillian contraption,” features 40 tunes including Costello hits, rarities and covers. Fans get to help choose the setlist by coming up on stage and spinning the wheel.
