Rock, Roll & Win a Trip to Elvis Week!

Imagine how cool it would be to a part of the Elvis experience. Don't worry about little things like how you would be able to do that. You can get the chance if you just enter the Rock Roll and Win the Ultimate Elvis Week Adventure Sweepstakes. Go to Elvis Presley's Facebook page. Click on the tab that says Rock Roll and Win on the left side of the page and follow the prompts to be entered to the contest.

As a grand prize winner you can get round-trip airfare for 2 to and from Memphis for Elvis Week 2011, 5 nights hotel accommodations, $50 Hard Rock Cafe gift card, 2 tickets to the Rollin' on the River event aboard the Memphis Queen 111 Riverboat. Those are just a few of the prizes you would receive as a grand prize winner.
Are you wondering what you would be getting for being a second place winner? Twenty of the second place winners each receive a copy of Viva Elvis-The Album.
If that isn't enough of a reason to enter I don't know what is.

Vote for Elvis in NME Poll of Greatest Singers of All Time

There are so many singers in the music world that bring so much life to the words. Imagine if you had a dream and could make a list of your favorite voices in music. You can now make that dream a reality. Each and every one of these stars brings something unique to the table.


There was never anybody that had the "Midas Touch" with cover songs like the legendary Elvis Presley. The range of his voice was truly unbelievable. Sometimes people forget how great his voice was because of how he shook his hips. He sang with such ease whether it was gospel, rock, pop, bebop or country. That's why all Elvis fans, should show their support to the King by voting on a new poll featured in NME magazine's top twenty singers of all time. Vote now or forever hold your peace!


Oh, and a comment on my blog wouldn't hurt either.

Watch Viva ELVIS Performers on The Price Is Right

I just found another reason to love that game show Price Is Right. You might say that it isn't the same without Bob Barker as the host. Personally, I can't complain with what Bob Barker brought to the show. That being said, I think Drew Carey definitely brings something to the table with his comedy background. The Drew Carey show was memorable not just for the jokes but also the theme song. I kind of lost count how many times you hear them sing Cleveland Rocks...Cleveland Rocks. Cleveland is after all the home of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Just imagine Drew with his love for rock music, being able to introduce a showcase most people would die for. There are a few names synonymous with Rock and Roll. It's not Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Buddy Holly or Ritchie Valens. Then it has to be...yeah you guessed it. Tupelo's own, Elvis Presley.

Now take a look at the video here...

Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham to tape special at Landmark

Laughter is the best medicine. That and the fact that it's not too bad in large doses unlike what you find at any pharmacy. If you're a fan of shows on Comedy Central then you should be very familiar with the name Jeff Dunham. Hopefully by this time, you have your tickets for Jeff Dunham's fourth Comedy Central special Friday and Saturday at Richmond's Landmark Theater.

Both shows are sold out with Dunham showcasing his talents with characters like Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Bubba J the Redneck and Peanut as part of the 100-city "Identity Crisis" tour.

Dunham doesn't have a bad resume either considering the New York Times Magazine has called him "the most successful comedian working in America." Not impressed? The last two years he's been named in Forbes magazine's 100 Celebrity roster of the most powerful entertainer. Oh, and he has over 5 million fans on Facebook.
