Yesterday I went to Manchester Arena with 4 girl friends to see ELVIS IN CONCERT. He wasn't there in person of course but it was fantastic the way they did it using footage from his concerts in America, they were even able to have him walk the corridor in the Arena and on to the stage, it was incredible. There were plenty of "look alikes" in the audience but it seemed that the real one was on the stage. His backing singers were there in person "The Sweet Inspirations" and so were the "Jordanaires". I had the time of my life as he was from day one and still is my idol, the KING. When you hear his voice, his singing it was incredible especially as he didn't have all the electrical and computerised system that they have today. It was such a waste and so sad that he died so young.
Sounds as though you had a great time Pat. I love Elvis too. xx
ReplyDeleteOur Ann went to that show at Sheffield Arena last week, she loved it too, and was just amazed how good it was. Ann loved Elvis too. So sad he died too young. all that talent. Glad you enjoyed it. Love Sandra x

ReplyDeleteHe has always been the King to my dad. Can't wait to tell him about your night out. :)He chose Love Me Tender at my mum's funeral.
I also went to see Elvis at Sheffield Arena and it was fantastic. A night i'll never forget, i took a picture at the beginning but i was too mesmorised by him to take any more i'll put it on my blog... I phoned my daughter during the performance just so she could hear him too........ Elvis never died in my house and he never will. Love AnnG xx
