We had friends renew their vows @ an Elvis Wedding Palace in Vegas a few years ago. The impersonator was good. He was way too little for Elvis but he could sing, and this was the bride's[instigator for this]favorite. She and he made it mine. Never been a big fan. I learned about him dying in the Philly airport bathroom. An old black guy said to me, "The king just died?" I had a quizzical look on my face. He said, "Elvis, man..he died on the toilet."
Impersonations are tough, Spinelli. I know from experience that the impersonator gets hung up on hearing him or herself -- even if they record themselves and listening back. Often times it sounds better to impersonator than to the listeners. Troop made a joke once about laughing the hardest at his own jokes which nobody else got. Tears of a clown, man.
I hate Sarah Jessica Parker, Robin Williams, Tim Robbins, Susan Saradon, the BJ Hunnicut guy, brussel sprouts, the Boston Red Sox, commies and well, lawyers.

"Viva Las Vegas" is not only a great Elvis song, but it's a fantastic music video.
It's a show tune overlaid on a samba-exaltação that's an uptempo version of Aquarela do Brasil.
Elvis should've recorded that, too.
chick, Impersonations are tough, somebody needs to tell Jimmy Fallon.
Elvis died on the toilet. Wilkie Nelson claims Elvis's last words were "Corn??"
The best Elvis song is like the best root canal.
Meade thinks it's the one about dogs. Why am I not surprised.
Annie needs to keep her mutt on a shorter leash.
I think all that Pot took it toll on Willie Nelson. Income taxes? To hell with that, lets smoke some weed.
Shawn Colvin does a great version.
