| Head down to the used record store and look for releases by "Orion", an
Elvis impersonator who wore a mask kinda like Robin the Boy Wonder so
you *just couldn't be sure* if ya know wot I mean....
Put 'em next to your copy of "The Phantom's Divine Comedy" by the
world's first Jim Morrison impersonator...

Oh, wow, and here I am in Charlotte for laptop training!! And I have
no idea where to go to see RenElvis! So that's what you do in
Charlotte for a hot time! I thought the point of Charlotte was to
drive around being lost whilst listening to the big ole hairy fox!
Gee, what I'm missing as I sit here tonight playing with my new toy!
Come up to the Aquarius Room and introduce yourself...

I like Tortelvis, who does the lead vocals for Dread Zeppelin.
Sounds amazingly like the real Elvis.

| Nashville singer Roddy McDowell brings in the bucks doing recorded
Elvis impersonations for the movies. Don't know what he looks like.

On the day Elvis died (assuming he did) I was on a business trip in
Albuquerque. After a day of work, I ambled into the bar for a cold one and
started talking to a guy sitting next to me. We get to talking about Elvis
and he asks me if I've ever heard the guy that was performing in the lounge
that night. Well, I hadn't and I asked him why..turns out the guy was an
Elvis impersonator who had been scheduled for that evening, which may have
explained some of the TV cameras and reporters hanging around.
At any rate, the guy I'm talking to says he knows the impersonator (who's name
was Bobby Freeman) quite well, and he invited me to join he and his wife and
another couple at a table near the stage. Having nothing better to do in
Albuquerque, I said why not. It turned out this guy put on a pretty powerful
and emotional show which had many people in the audience stunned. I was
pretty impressed with the guy.

| I used to play in a band with a guy who started in the business as an
Elvis impersonator. He expanded his repertoire to John Lennon (had a
Sgt. Pepper suit for that) and we also did some mainstream beefcake
rock. Last I heard he was working for Hanna-Barbera as a cartoonist.

| GAKKK!!! It's the revenge of Elvis Impersonators ...
After surviving 2+ years in an Elvis Impersonator band, I still get
that "All Shook Up" feeling in my lower intestines when I hear
the dulcet tones of the "King" ...
(QUESTION: would more than one Elvis impersonator be considered as Elvi ??)

| The Bay Area has "Elvis Herselvis", who I believe is a female Elvis
impersonator. But don't quote me...

| Did you know Elvis had a brother Enis? But when Elvis hit the Sullivan show
and they started calling him "Elvis the Pelvis" their mother told Enis he
couldn't be a musician anymore.

| 259.17 | Mexican faux Elvis spotted | RTOEU::WSCULL | ..hopeless, but not serious.. | Wed Jul 15 1992 13:38 | 10 |
| Down near the borderline in San Diego, I witnessed a single genuine Mexican
Elvis Impersonator called ELVI. Last I heard he was giving his
compadre Jose Sinatra a run for his pesos in the San Diego latin
pseudo-crooner biz (a real growth industry).
Be sure to wiggle your hips down to any club either of these two may be
playing at if you find yourself in S.D. Definitely worth a look......
