and here is some other elvis collecting i've been doing...

my elvis-themed tattoo. can you spot all three references?



with the sweet sensations, elvis' backup singers in the 70s:



with dj fontana, the first drummer of rock'n'roll! you can see him playing drums in the band of several elvis movies, and he appeared on many albums.

leaving elvis a message on the "wall of love" outside graceland:



outside sun studios in memphis:

how could i resist taking a picture with this cheesy portrait? it looks like the cover of a harlequin romance novel:



yep:

with one of my velvet elvis paintings (i also have a huge one):



at some novelty golf course near memphis:



at his grave:



the closest i'll ever get!:



how many lamps does one person need? MORE, that's how many:
