The Sundance Channel Launches Elvis Costello's "Spectacles"
Elvis Costello's new talk show makes its debut Wednesday night. Elton John is the first guest on the new Sundance Channel series "Spectacle." Costello notes that he and Elton are friends, which he admits some might find odd. But despite Elton's history as a flamboyant classic rocker, the one time punk rocker says they really aren't all that different from one another.
Costello adds that, on the show, he and Elton spend most of the time talking about music. John's Rocket Pictures produced the 13-part series, for which Costello interviews prominent figures in music and the arts. Future guests include Smokey Robinson, The Police, Tony Bennett, Kris Kristofferson, and former President Bill Clinton. The hour-long, weekly series "Spectacle" is slated to air on the Sundance Channel Wednesday nights at 9:00 p.m. Eastern. |
