The WTTS Rock to Read series presented by Jockamo Upper Crust Pizza announces its second show. Next up, Elvis Costello, November 7th in the Murat at Old National Center. Tickets are on sale July 23rd at 10a EST. A portion of the proceeds benefit children’s reading programs through The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation.
In recognition of his “Services To Music,” Elvis Costello has been named an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. The ceremony took place on Friday at Buckingham Palace with Prince Charles bestowing the honors.
“Among many things I’ve been given, it’s one that somebody decided I deserve and all you can say is ‘thank you’,” the rocker said following the event.
Costello sang a different tune than when it was announced that he would receive the OBE, joking last year that it “confirms my long-held suspicion nobody really listens to the words in songs or the outcome might have been somewhat different.”
Which other rockers have received such honors from the British crown?
