Photos: Bumbershoot – Day 1 w/ Elvis Costello & Sam Lachow

Posted on by

I’ve seen the massively wonderful Elvis Costello several times now, twice at Bumbershoot. This year his appearance at Bumbershoot seemed abbreviated (hist last Bumbershoot show was 3 hours), as, for some reason, Wu-Tang Clan was scheduled after him. Costello could have continued playing on that Main Stage, and the audience would have been happy for it (can you tell I am not that big on Wu-Tang Clan?). Why Elvis Costello would be scheduled ahead of ANYBODY, I do not know. Anyway, Costello’s performance was pure magic. He’s an international treasure – music gold, and it was exquisite to see him have such a large audience of people who were fellow fans. Thanks Elvis!

Over on the Fisher Green Stage Sam Lachow, rapper/producer/director/he who does everything, had a huge crowd to see him. Photographer Simon Krane caught his set – I missed the beginning of it. By the time I got there, I saw an audience who was large and happy. He returns to Seattle with a show at the Neptune on November 29th.
