So what's up with Elvis Costello? Just an hour into his show last night at the Universal Lending Pavilion, Costello and his band skittered offstage without saying a word to the crowd. After a few minutes of cheering, the house lights came back up and music started playing to puzzled looks in the audience, and sporadic boos. Suddenly, though, the lights went out again, and Costello finally reemerged for about 75 minutes worth of encores. First time I've seen a show where the encores last longer than the main set. It was an otherwise stellar performance, although Elvis — who's normally a chatterbox on stage — never did say what happened. Weird.
