Bayee Village, Wimbledon Village, 21st December 2009

Thanks to everyone who braved the continuing bad weather to make it to the restaurant.

From a sold out night to a few not being able to make it because of the snowand icy conditions, a fantastic night was still had by all.

The usual high standard of food from Marco and the staff of Bayee, plus Elvis Tribute Show soon had everyone feeling warm and ready to party.

Once the girls in grass skirts are out and extra Elvis are up for Rock - A – Hula it’s all systems go.

A burst of Blue Suede Shoes and Henry is bopping all over the restaurant.

A short break and it’s round 2,

The opening of CC Rider instantly relights the energy in the crowd and we’re off.

Sweet Carolinegets everyone singing and waving their arms in the air and we are back into full swing.

We had a night of singers in the audience and full use of their vocal talents was used.

Martin, Tricia and Jane all served up great songs on the mic as did the fantastic Aurore & Tish.

As the night ends the local taxi companies are put to the test showing good food a little drink and Elvis make for a great night out.

This night is returning on February 16th 2010 to celebrate “Chinese New Year” and we can do it all over again.

Thank you all again for making it through the bad weather and see you in February.

Thank you to everyone who came to the Kouchin for Elvis Night,
Another great success thanks to the efforts of Naz and his staff, getting the food out early so as much time as possible for dancing was had by the diners.
A couple of pictures attached taken on the night, more on the actual website.
Thanks again to everyone who supports me in my Tribute to Elvis at the Kouchin.
I hope a merry christmas was had by all and a prosperous 2010.
I look forward to seeing you all in the new year.

Elvis Tribute @ Southern Cross, Fulham, 21st November 2009

ELVIS IN FULHAM..…………………Many thanks to everyone that turned up to the Southern Cross, Kings Road, Fulham, on a wet and windy night, especially the rugby team.

Although not a full house on my 1st appearance here, a great time was had by all, again, especially the rugby boys.

These guys loved the opportunity to strip to the waist, put on grass skirts and dance as if on a beach in Hawaii. They nearly brought the house down, literally…LoL . Dancing on the tables and using as much floor space as possible.

Thanks to Nigel the landlord for putting this night on and I will be back on New Years Eve to celebrate the coming of the new year 2010.

See you then

Chalfont Wasps FC – 20 November 2009

Well thanks to people rubberneckin on the A40 Tish and I nearly didn’t make it. But when we got there we had one rockin night with the Chalfont Wasps. With two lovely ‘Marie’s’ in the audience we got them up early to dance to ‘Marie’s the name’ and even though one Marie was two shy to dance, the rest kept going for the rest of the night. ‘Sweet Caroline’ got them up on the tables and they absolutely rocked to ‘Viva Las Vegas’. In fact, thanks everyone, I think that was the best interaction we’ve ever had.

Debbie H…..not so great of you to ruin my hair! And just before singing ‘love me tender’..my all time favourite song of course?? But Deb, I hope you liked it.

Thanks overall to Chalfont Wasps for a great night. Here are some of the pics. You should have seen some of the moves to Johnny be goode’! And, I didn’t catch your name, but you requested ‘I just can’t help believin’ and you were one of the few peoplewho remembers that it continues longer than expected, and didn’t start clapping early. Thank you!

I hope to return soon, keep an eye on the Wasps website and on here for further details.

Another fantastic night in the Peking, Dorking. A packed house where we even had the takeaway customers dancing! And we played the early set in the GI uniform which got everyone marching. Thanks to Ray, an up and coming Frank Sinatra Tribute, who kept people singing and dancing during our interval. Looking forward to another night there 23 November and of course, New Year’s Eve. Book now, it’s selling out. View photos
