Ryan Pelton - Legends In Concert - Myrtle Beach, SC - November 2005

The Christmas season is soon upon us and I have had the pleasure of seeing Ryan Pelton perform his first Christmas show of the year here at Legends In Concert. Although I do get to see Ryan perform several times per week and am always in awe at what great talent he has I was extremely amazed at the kind of performance he gave at this particular show. Ryan first stepped onto the stage in the beautiful Cisco Kid jumpsuit which is my all time favorite and started singing Promised Land which he did with great energy. Then he continued on with Kentucky Rain, Burning Love, Teddy Bear (as he tossed cute little teddy bears into the audience of many screaming fans), Suspicious Minds, and ended that set with my favorite song "If I Can Dream"... which just brought tears to my eyes. Not one note was missed as he done this song with great emotion and feeling. His vocals and movements to that song was very much like Elvis. As you watch the screens on both sides of the stage showing Elvis and Ryan on a split screen you can see that Ryan has the moves down to a science. Click here for full Fanview.

Jason Sikes - Recent show, Aiken, South Carolina

I was recently afforded the opportunity to see Jason Sikes in concert at Mi Ranco in Aiken, South Carolina on Nov. 12, 2005. Jason is truly an outstanding artist. He brings a tremendous amount of energy and vocal talent to the stage. Jason can move and sing in such a way that you forget that you are not watching Elvis himself. Jason Sikes is very kind and always makes time for his fans. He is very amusing and is an all around great performer. Melissa Johnson, Aiken, South Carolina

Shawn Barry - Rideau Carlton Raceway Slots, Ont.

I’ve been a fan of Shawn Barry for at least 10 yrs. Shawn came out for a fifties set in a black velvet shirt, legs, hips and shoulders keeping time as only Elvis could to such classics as “Don’t Be Cruel”, “Hound Dog” and a favorite of mine “Such a night”. He then followed with a movie set looking like he just stepped off the set of Blue Hawaii. His third set truly the best. I’ve often said of Shawn I think he must be the only one who has watched “Elvis, That’s the Way It Is” more times than me. He has every move and nuance down pat to a tee. You would be hard pressed to find anyone North of the Border who can do a seventies set that close to Elvis himself especially on songs that though not choreographed are very Elvis distinct to die hard fans thanks to that movie, such as that version of “One Night With You”, “You don’t have to Say You Love Me”, “Sweet Caroline”, and my all time personal Elvis favorite “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling”. There is a reason he has won numerous awards as “Canada’s Best”. Shawn had the crowd on its feet wanting more which again is very unusual for such a venue. His show is always a family affair with his wife, whom he obviously adores, always present and his mom and dad. To the audience delight he performed his mom’s favorite Just Pretend for his encore. To quote Shawn every time he performs “there was only one Elvis” buts it’s thanks to performers like himself that the magic lives on. Lola Saffioti, Ottawa Ont.

JASON SIKES - Imperial Theatre - October 22nd, 2005 - Augusta, GA

Jason put on a show of a lifetime when he performed with The Stamps Quartet and Moody Blues Show Band! His performance was OUTSTANDING! The entire show was filled with such passion, enthusiasm, and energy! It is a show that we will never forget. Jason does an excellent job portraying The King of Rock N’ Roll and keeping Elvis’ memory alive. We are proud of you Jason!! Keep up the great work!

Chris T Young - Recent Show - Elkhart, Indiana

Chris T Young puts on the greatest Elvis show that I have ever seen. He really enjoys what he is doing sings from his heart and gives it his all. He is a gentle spirit, kind and caring person on stage and off stage. He calls all his fans by name and makes each and everyone feel glad to be there. I personally leave with a warm glow and feel 16 all over again. Elvis would be proud of the tribute that Chris pays him. He interacts with his audience and everyone feels special just being near him. Chris T.Young is #1. Jean Miller, Elkhart, Indiana

Tyler James - Branson Elvis Explosion, Nov. 2005

I saw this young man in Branson last weekend and was blown away with his performance. His mannerisms and style of Elvis was just awesome. He has such an dynamic voice and charisma about him as did Elvis. The king of rock and roll would be proud of Tyler. He has such a level head and great perspective on things for one so young. I hope to see more of Tyler because he portrays the essence of Elvis through his love for him and his songs. Sheila Clark, Branson.

The Viva Las Vegas Elvis Fan Club organized an entertaining and moving benefit show for Ed Bonja, Elvis' tour manager and concert photographer. Held at the Landing hotel and casino, The show was also attended by members of the BC Elvis Fan Club and the Jailhouse Rockers Fan Club of California. It featured a plethora of talented singers. Some ofthose who took part included rising young star Quentin Flagg, legendary Vegas performer Boline and Chance Michaels, to name a few.

Also in attendance was ETA DukeAdams, who gained national press after turning in the crook who tried tosell him valuable Elvis memorabilia stolen from Elvis-A-Rama. Not tempted for a second to keep the items, Duke said they should be shared by the world. The event also featured an auction where beautiful photographs of The King, taken by Bonja, were available to lucky bidders. Thanks to membersof the Viva Las Vegas Elvis Fan Club for all their hard work.Sandor Gyarmati, Burnaby BC (LOVINGYOUELVIS.COM)

Robin Kelly - Yellowhead Casino, Alberta. Nov. 18th

My husband and I and some friends and relatives went to see Robin's Show on Friday, November 18th at the Yellowhead Casino. It was a great show as usual. I feel that every time I see one of his shows that he is definitely getting better and better. His performances are awesome and I always look forward to his next performance. We never get tired of watching him perform. He is a class act for sure. People sure do miss alot if they do not come to see him perform his tribute to Elvis. I definitely am a big fan of Robin's. He has come a long way from the shy young fellow that he was when I first saw him. That was before he decided to do Elvis. Bonnie

Friday night's show was completely sold out as Jeff performed at Romano's in Philadelphia, PA. He did two shows, and during the first show he recreated Elvis' performance in Philadelphia in 1971. Jeff did an absolutely fantastic job and, of course, received thunderous applause and several standing ovations! There were fans who actually saw Elvis doing that show in 1971 and they all agreed that Jeff has a very special talent. During the second show Jeff sang a variety of songs. When he sang "Hurt" his fans begged for more, and he actually sang it a second time. His performance thrilled the fans. We have been Jeff's fans since the first time we saw him a few years ago. There were many first-timers at his show who are also now Jeff Krick fans! Please visit Jeff's new website at www.jeffkrick.piczo.com for info on upcoming shows. TCB, Jeanne & Rob, Philadelphia, PA

Jeff Krick - Romano’s, Philadelphia, PA, Nov. 18, 2005

I saw Tim Tesley in Belgium last Saturday night where he did a perfect Elvis show. He has got the looks and the voice. When he sang his first song the people were amazed at the capacity of his voice. He can sound like both the young Elvis and the old Elvis.

Tim Tesley - Show on November 16th, Belgium

Casper Slee - Concert on December 2 - Utrecht, Holland.

On the 2nd of November, I saw my first concert of a Elvis Tribute Artist and i was surprised with his performance. I always thought that impersonators were simply making quick money on someone's fame and glory, but when I saw Casper Slee singing "Suspicious Minds" I understood the meaning of Tribute Artists. Elvis was alive again and singing through Casper. He approached the audience always with such charisma and danced beautifully. I hope to see him again performing. soon..

SEAN SHARP- Lake Park Fall Festival, Indian Trail, NC - November 2005

My family recently had the pleasure of watching a fine young man by the name of Sean Sharp perform at our local festival. With an exceptional stage presence and wonderful costume this 8 year old dynamo was even able to capture the attention of our daughters. They happily stayed for the entire performance and competed to capture a much coveted tossed teddy bear! When he completed his performance they were each able to receive an autographed photo and even a copy of a CD he has just recorded. Who would have known we could find such talent literally in our own backyard. He has a wonderful voice and should be able to go far with whatever he wants to do in this business. You can also visit him on the web at www.seansharp.4t.com . Good luck Sean!

JEFF KRICK, Christmas Show, Levittown, PA - 12/16/05
Jeff Krick's Christmas Show on December 16th was incredible. Jeff sang a variety of songs, including the Christmas songs recorded by Elvis. Every song he sang sounded fantastic. Just to name a few, he sang "Always on My Mind", "Blue Christmas", "Hurt" (which always renders him a standing ovation), "You Gave Me A Mountain". When you see Jeff Krick in concert you can't help but think that Elvis is smiling down on him very pleased with his tribute. Jeff has the look, the attire, the moves, the charisma, and most importantly a voice. What a voice! Each time I see Jeff in concert, I look forward to seeing him again and again. You can check out Jeff's website at www.jeffkrick.piczo.com.

JEFF KRICK, Christmas Show, Levittown, PA - 12/16/05
Well, he did it again. Jeff Krick put on a show Friday night, December 16, at the Knights of Columbus in Levittown, Pa. that was to standing room only. What an ETA!!! If any of you living in Eastern Pa. have not seen Jeff perform, you are doing yourself a dishonor. You've got to get out and see this fellow perform - two non-stop performances that last at least an hour-and-a-half long, if not longer, and without any break. He had his audience standing quite often, and moved some to tears with so many of the songs he sang. Even the Christmas songs got raves. His stamina is iron clad, his voice and his moves phenomenal. Check him out on the web on his new site www.jeffkrick.piczo.com This guy is fabulous, and as his fans are now saying, "Elvis was second to none. Jeff Krick is second only to Elvis."

Travis LeDoyt, Rustic Lodge, Indiana, PA - 11/12/05

Travis LeDoyt is absolutely the most perfect Elvis impersonator I've ever seen. I just loved him when he came to Indiana Pennsylvania on Nov 12 2005 and performed at the Rustic Lodge for so many of Elvis' adoring fans. He took our breath away, made us smile, laugh and cry. He was very good humored about a woman who just fell in love with him and kept calling out to him and trying to get very close to him. He sang "Teddy Bear" and everyone was screaming. It was so crowded that it was hard for him to get in the middle of the room, but when an older women called out to him, he climbed under the tables and sang to her. I have enclosed that picture and the teddy bear picture. He is the greatest since Elvis. I have been in love with Elvis since I was a child and Travis just flooded me with all the precious memories of our Elvis. We are so happy he came and he made a very cold night in Indiana PA warm in all of our hearts. Thank you Travis and I pray you come again to grace us with your performance. Thanks for letting me share my awesome experience. God Bless and take care....Mary Semsick, Indiana PA
