Jesse was in Kentucky doing a show with Bill Kelly on the Friday night and missed our meet and greet party, but drove in the next morning. All the fans who came to see him, many from Wisconsin, did arrive on the Friday and I'm sure Jesse didn't mind that we had a lot of fun while he was working! What a great group of people to be with, full of love and kindness and boy do they all love Jesse! A few of the ETAs who were in the Nashville show, Garry Wesley and Donny Edwards, will be going to perform at Jesse's Showcase in Milwaukee WI April 15th & 16th, which is a benefit for the Special Olympics. It takes a special ETA with a big heart to produce and to perform at these benefit shows and LLM is very proud to be associated with them. These ETAs perform with respect to Elvis and with every effort to keep his memory and kind spirit alive. Jesse's accomplishments include so many contest wins and lately, many tours across the US. Well, Jesse got the chance to take a nap before showtime and felt great walking out on the stage. I think he was a bit surprised with the reception he got because the the crowd was screaming as soon as the first note came out of his mouth! He chuckled, said thanks, greeted the folks and continued to knock them out with his usual powerful vocals! Having fun with the audience and loving what you do as an ETA is everything in this business, and when you are appreciated for your performances,and the public lets you know it means everything in the world to the ETA!
