Helvis....rock star of the ages

Sorry about that last post.... we are having technical difficulties.

Last night we were treated to a Brazilian rock star... Helvis. Check him out at www.helvis.com.br This is an entertainer that has been doing Elvis imitations for twenty years. Like the real Elvis, he has been gaining a little weight over the years and he huffs and puffs a bit as he travels up and down the stairs into the audience and back on stage. His double knit jumpsuits, complete with cut outs for the bell bottoms and a cape are not to miss. As women in the audience went up to the edge of the stage for a Helvis kiss and scarf, Mike and I sat in our seats far removed from the stage and rolled in laughter. It really was a sight to see. He has a great voice, deep and passionate, complete with a Brazilain accident. When he broke into "A Breeedge over troubled water" (I always thought that was Simon and Garfunkle not Elvis), and the words and traveling ball appeared on the side screens, Mike and I were working hard not to laugh out loud. It is an entertaining cruise!

Love, Deanne
