Around here we're pretty particular about where our 'discretional entertainment funds' get spent.
We like to make sure that we get a unique experience and preferably a memory out of our entertainment dollar.
That happened for sure on Saturday night.
We went to see our friend perform at the Seattle Elvis Invitationals!
What a riot the invitationals were- every kind of Elvis you can imagine. Even women Elvis's, Elvis's of just about every nationality and a Christmas themed Elvis- NOELVIS! HA!
I love supporting a friend in doing something they love and we had such a great time watching him transform into 'The King'. He was awesome and came in 2nd place for the 2nd year in a row.
He was even better this year and performed in a new powder blue jumpsuit that was unbelievable in its detail and authenticity.
Get out there and do something fun and different! You won't regret it.
And check out last years performance from our friend. He is amazingly good at this Elvis impersonating thing!
I love to watch people imitating someone famous. Eddie Murphy can do James Brown so well and it cracks me up. If you have ever watched "Who's Line Is It Anyway" you see Ryan Stiles doing Carol Channing or John Wayne and Wayne Brady (Grady?) doing a revival preacher is a scream. Laughing is wonderful isn't it? Take care.
ReplyDeleteSO SO SO FUN.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! My husband is from Memphis, so he's a big Elvis fan. He would love something like that!
ReplyDeleteYou and your hubby do the most interesting stuff. That is awesome.
ReplyDeleteWe are always up for that kind of fun. In fact, Saturday night we saw the real Elvis.
ReplyDeleteWhat?!?!
DeleteDon't lose faith, Jasmine. It was a joke.
DeleteI thought maybe you made a quick trip to Graceland or better yet had some amazing existential experience to tell about!
DeleteI've been to a few Elvis shows, years ago. They're always a fun time.
