I have been an Elvis fan since I was 7. A few years ago a friend convinced me to get dressed up and sing at another friend's 40th. It has now become not just a hobby but a passion. I do a lot of charity work as well as sing at various functions around Sydney, including weddings, birthdays, work and social functions.
In 2006 I headed up to Parkes and won the sound a like competition. It was a great experience. I'll be there again in 2010, so if you're a fan and in Parkes this January, stop by the club stall and say hello. I'll also be doing a dinner show at the Parkview Motor Inn on the Saturday night as a tribute to the greatest entertainer the world has ever known.
Long live the King.
