Adam Magazine on the Crazy Years

Looting, killing and raping -- by twisting their words they call it "empire"; and wherever they have created a wilderness they call it "peace" -- Tacitus

Tuesday, January 8

Rather than a tribute to Elvis, I'll do a tribute to Mark Phillips, an Elvis impersonator.
Here he is:


A remarkable resemblance, no?

According to his website:
Mark has studied Elvis' music and mannerisms all of his life and when he assumes the role of "Elvis", every twist and every twitch is authentic. He is an accomplished musician, proficient at a variety of musical instruments, and his voice is one of the most versatile in the business. Even the sound of Mark's guitar is genuine "Elvis". Mark has a complete array of Elvis costumes, from the 60's and 70's.

Mark normally performs for corporate events, birthday celebrations, wedding receptions, and other private parties. However, he is the featured entertainment at Johnny's Hideaway in Atlanta each year on Elvis Presley's birthday and the anniversary of Elvis' death. Mark has been a special guest on "Good Day Atlanta" and Channel 2 Evening News. Look for Mark to appear on Channel 5's "Good Day Atlanta" show again this January 8th, between 8:00 and 9:30 a.m., commemorating Elvis' birthday. Mark isn't just a singer. He is also an actor, and can be seen regularly on Atlanta television in commercials for Maxie Price Chevrolet. Mark performed with a full orchestra for over 5000 fans on July 4, 2001 at an annual Community celebration in Kennesaw, Georgia.



Chevy commercials and a full orchestra!

But that's not all - Mark is also a one-man band!
"Using modern keyboard technology and a real guitar, along with a state-of-the-art P.A. and lighting system, Mark truly sounds like a full band. If you shut your eyes or walk into the next room, you may actually forget that it's not a full band you're listening to"
