Rock The Party With An Elvis Impersonator

By George Mitchell


Two words ruled the late fifties up to the early seventies. Rock N roll. When it needed a king in the sixties, people in the United States did not have to look long. A boy who grew up, hardened by the south but with a gift of music like no other in his generation up to now, took care of that.

Born in Mississippi and hardened by its difficult southern unrest in those early decades of rock, Elvis Presley gave his generation a thirst they never knew existed. They devoured him. They begged for his performances and many years later he has elvis impersonator san francisco keeping his image alive.

It makes sense you know. Pop back in the days never had a star as large as what he had been, and rightfully so. He was, in every sense of the word, an icon. It was unfortunate that he did not live long enough for the world to embrace his talent some more while he stood and watch with the audience as his loyal subjects.

Then again, the ones who had an uncanny ability to look and perform like him today can be trusted to deliver. Of course, it would not be a fraction of what and who he was because there is only one king of Las Vegas. What started as something out of fun and merrymaking for those who did not live to see him and experience his live acts made do with following how he sang and danced.

Doing it professionally and making a living out of it may well be more than what one had bargained for. But impersonators are common today. Especially for an icon like that man. He had a signature look with clothes that you would not mistake on any other artist.

He already sold himself and his talent that one night his knees and legs bended to the music. It would take someone very talented to be able to master that. The rest became history when the audience took it upon themselves to mark him as someone who naturally moves like that. He defined that generation.

Today, impersonators are already professionally trained. It took them years of training and studying movements and mannerisms of how the artist sings or dances on stage, maybe even both. You will believe you are truly meeting the man himself when you get the right person for the entertainment.

There would be so many that it can get overwhelming. Most of them works with an agency so you will have to direct your questions there and asks for samples of performances through videos, depending on what material they would like to show to let you hire them. Check who the person is and judge for yourself.

Then again, looking like the man would not be enough. You should know that the way he performs and moves on stage would also be just as important, if not more. Ask for referrals if you know of someone who had hired these artists before. Today, they are actually already professionally trained, with years of experience and studying of how an artist should look.
