This evening we went to The Tony Roi Elvis Show. He is one of the best impersonators. Phyllis Mancini would have really liked this show. He even took pictures with anyone in the audience who wanted to have their picture taken with Tony. He had the Elvis "moves."

 

Oh, look at Elvis move! The audience went wild listening to "Jail House Rock" 

"Love Me Tender, Love Me Sweet..."

"All Shook Up"
