Ok, maybe this isn’t REALLY Elvis, but believe me, it’s as close as you are going to get these days! (Well, unless you believe that EL isn’t really DEAD)
Every year on the first weekend of December, I attend an event called “Night of 100 Elvises”, aka “NO100E”. It is fabulous FUN, and folks get dressed up in their 50’s garb, HON Hair (you’ve got to be a Baltimore-on to know what this is…), and sometimes even the JUMPSUIT. This gentleman IS one of the entertainers (Elvis impersonators)- who cover the Elvis songs all night, along with local bands doing the same. Open bar, free food and, the pi-ece de résistance – Grilled Cheese, Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwiches. This has been held in Baltimore’s Lithuanian Hall for over 15 years, and those Lithuanians have THEIR own special beverage, Vititus, a very SNEAKY Honey Liquer. ’nuff said about THAT! If you want to join me in 2014 – check out the website: www.nightof100elvises.com
On that night every year “My Name is ELVIS!”
