On Tuesday 20th May Elbow play a very special show in the pristine surroundings of the Apple Store on Regent Street in the heart of London.

The action kicks off at 9pm and we've got 100 pairs of tickets to give away.

For your chance to be in the audience click here and enter the competition to win a pair of tickets.

Better still, everyone who attends the show will also be entitled to 10 free downloads from the iTunes store. So you can snap up all those iTunes exclusive Elbow b-sides you've been lusting after.

You really can't say fairer than that, can you? Good luck everyone!

Last night was fantastic. Guy was in top form, making jokes etc all through but when it came to the singing he was so in the moment and it was quite breathtaking. When they did Great Expectations I'm not sure how I held back the tears, it was unbeleivably romantic and heartwarming.

I took some photos and a bit of video of their new version of Grounds for Divorce. I'll try and post links to them once uploaded later on.

Thanks so much for keeping us posted.

Looking forward to the pics and video!

I enjoyed this alot. It was the blues-y, acoustic number that they played in the 4music programme around the release of The Seldom Seen Kid with Guy on mouth organ.

Guy seems to constantly have a cold these days. He really should see a doctor about that.

... and someone really needs to have a word with him about that hat.

xanaduflipper - whereabouts in Kent are you? That's three of us now I think!

Sorry, just seen this post! I'm in Swanley. alien

Subject: Re: See Elbow Live At The Apple Store London Wed 11 Jun 2008, 18:38

I just got the email about the apple store tunes now being available on itunes - which they are, but no sign of "great expectations" ....my favourite. Anyone know why this has been left off?

Subject: Re: See Elbow Live At The Apple Store London Thu 12 Jun 2008, 07:26

Swanley? That's hardly 'deepest darkest Kent'... it's practically London! Very Happy

Subject: Re: See Elbow Live At The Apple Store London Fri 13 Jun 2008, 13:06

Where are you from?

I was at the Apple store gig! I was the one who shouted out a "Yeehaw" during Grounds For Divorce and made Guy laugh, so he missed his cue for the second verse. Oops, sorry!

Subject: Re: See Elbow Live At The Apple Store London Wed 18 Jun 2008, 16:50

Apologies in advance for the hijack...

If it's within the M25, it's Lahndan in my book :p

Living in a small village between (tr)Ashford and Tenterden - the posh bit of Kent! I'm not from there originally though.
