From EC's official site:

"We wanted to express our deepest admiration for the courageous Sandy Hook parents who spoke so eloquently about their losses at this event, with profound sympathy for all of the bereaved present, whose family members had been killed by illegally obtained guns or in domestic gun accidents.

We realize how very fortunate we are to be able to wish a very happy birthday to our American boys, Dexter and Frank with hope there will soon be a sane discussion of a more peaceful future.
Elvis Costello and Diana Krall

That Sandy Hook event - so sad. I blame the mother. That boy should have been in treatment - 24/7. The last thing you do is take an emotionally disturbed kid to a gun club. Really sad.

with "MAMA PUT THESE GUNS IN THE GROUND" being the title for this nights recap at "yellow press" at his official site, i wonder if he played KNOCKIN ON HEAVEN'S DOOR. one of the BEST versions ever can be found on the OUR AIM IS TRUE bootleg! has it ever been officially released? i think not.
