Las Vegas Adventure... and more....


June and Me
day as the competition time was approaching, we would have to get into the casino and set up our table of books and be ready to give our support to all the ETA's that would arrive. That's what we were there for, to sell a few books, and to support the guys.(Of course to seeing each other was an added benefit!)

For the unsuspecting on-looker it would have appeared that Elvis had magically been cloned-many times! You couldn't see nothing when the bright lights caught the thousands of rhinestones in their glare... between them,jet black hair and sideburns- it soon became obvious you were in the right place!

You could feel the excitement in the air when the doors were opened, and the emotions began to flood the room. You couldn't help but to become bound to the enthusiasm that would envelope you like a glove. People were there to see Elvis, or as close as one could get 25 years after his passing. There was no holding them back as they sat in their chairs screaming endlessly as the guys finished their songs one by one.

Their freshly shined shoes were soon scuffed and the once neatly pressed jumpsuits would soon be soaked on the Las Vegas stage, there was no doubt that they were primed and ready to Rock and Roll! Giving it all they had while on stage, they would have to impress not only the audience, but the judges that were in the seats below. This would be the one and only time they could make an impression so that it could be scored and tallied to determine a finalist- so if you messed up, you might as well call it a night- because they were there to win this competition and only those that sounded as close to the King as possible would make it to the finals on Sunday. All the others would have to go...

I guess that's were the problem started...
