Crap! This means the big Salute show will be this weekend in Pigeon Forge! Gotta go! They either do the entire Aloha from Hawaii show or the Comeback Special show, complete with costume changes and faux skits! Thanks for reminding me!

Thanks Martiki... I haven't heard Mojo in years.
I posted this in the "Rockabilly" thread but I 'spose it's more fitting here.

Thank you, thank you very much.
:tiki:

Tiki Royale - That is one sweet mug, how'd you come by it?

Johnny Dollar - That was hilarious, my favorite..."Elvis is in Joan Rivers but he's trying to get out" Haven't heard Mojo Nixon in a few years, nice to revisit.

Hey Ben,
I wish it were mine. It's not a mug but a little statue that was made a few years ago. I never got one but have been looking. I just had this pic from the internet.
Aloha,
:tiki:

CLASSIC!

not no fool Billy Idol lip either!

It is all about the white jump suit & karate moves that have more cheese than the state of Wisconsin.

Happy Birthday KING!

My MOM is the #1 Elvis fan of Fishkill. Yup, complete with former kids bedroom turned into shrine. She even confessed to my ex that she married my Dad 'cause he looked like Elvis!

"I was always, baby, I was always
Well, "almost" always true to you..."

I may just mix some peas and crumbled bacon in with my mashed potatoes tonight in honor of Elvis. (Oh, and he ate them out of a big bowl with his hands.)

I'm watching "Viva Las Vegas" on the tube. Did you ever notice Elvis walks like a gun-fighter with his arms bent and hands hovering about his hips as if he's going for his guns?

My bathroom is the elvis shrine. seriously

Elvis is everywhere, even the bermuda triangle.

Enjoy my art:

If I may TW~

That's a variation of a recipe that was done by The Food Network and isn't actually Elvis' official recipe (bacon/bacon drippings was never a component of the sandwich). Here it is in it's actual form:

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
2 ripe bananas, mashed
8 slices white bread (buttered)
Additional butter for grilling

*Combine (and mash) peanut butter & bananas.
*Spread mixture on 4 slices of bread.
*Place remaining 4 slices on top.
*Butter the outside of the sandwich.
*Melt butter in skillet or griddle and grill both sides of sandwich.

Makes 4 sandwiches.

You will see some variations of the above recipe where they say to "place slices of banana on (peanut)buttered slices of bread. That's where the mistake comes in. You need to mash that banana with the peanut butter. And as for the quantity of butter? It's up to you, but Elvis didn't hold back on the butter, so you'll need lots. Be sure to watch your heat since it can burn. Believe me, these are REAL good!

I recommend this book for the true recipes of Elvis. I have it, and it's pure Southern comfort food. The South knows how to cook up some damn good food! Looking at the recipes, it seems like just simple recipes, but if you follow the instructions to the 't', your mouth will be in for some real treats. Plus the book is only $8 (well spent if I may add). I picked mine up at the Elvis Museum in Las Vegas.

Just my 2 "peanut butta & nanner samich" worth.
**THANKYOU!**Thankyouverymuch!

Happy Birthday JIMMY PAGE!

Happy Birthday to me! and the King! My mom is also the biggest Elvis freak known to man.

Happy Belated Bday divychic!

Made the sandwiches according to SCDs recipe yesterday. They were damn good, but then I was ashamed of what I had just eaten.

Uhhh, have you guys not noticed that Elvis is dead?

This past month has been a good month for the DC/Baltimore area, as far as Elvis impersonators go.

The first weekend in December had Baltimore hosting its 10th annual "Night of 100 Elvises" event. This was the first year I've attended, and although they had perhaps only 8 or so, and not 12 Elvis impersonators, it was still a fun event.

Two weekends ago I saw the play "Cooking With Elvis" performed at the Kennedy Center. Others in our nation's Capital may have chosen to see performances by the National Symphony, or Russia's Kirov Ballet, but I chose to see the play that featured the character of a quadriplegic Elvis impersonator, along with many acts of depravity thatI won't get into.

Waiting for the next appearance of Elvis...
