    I saw Big Elvis @ Harrah's and he doesn't appear to be as thin as when I last saw him about 3 years ago. He still does a great show. His fan club Big Elvis has over 125,000 members worldwide. He has been to Nashville recently and did quite well. Some of the places he might visit in the US are Boston, Mohegan Sun, NY, Atlantic City and/or Philadelphia, FL and Nashville. As far as Europe it looks like London, France & Germany because Harrah's has properties there.

    I saw him when we were in Vegas in May.
    My Mom, who loves Elvis, loved him and my wife, who doesn't care much about Elvis also loved him. I was amazed by the range and power of his voice from a seated position.
    Really good show.

    Big Elvis is a must see for us every trip. His voice is incredibly close to Elvis, and has a helluva range.

    We will be in Vegas mid December and want to see Big Elvis. Seems like everytime we've tried in the past we had the wrong time.

    Anyone have his show times or a link?

    Thanks

    The aforementioned trip that my mom, wife and I saw him on, he was definitely a highlight. I think my Mom's favorite part of the whole week was to go to Harrah's in the afternoon and sit there playing a machine close enough to the bar he sings at and listen to his show whilst losing her money :thumbsup:

    Big Elvis is a tremendous singer and his show is a real shining light on the Strip. Always love to see him.

    The first time I saw him was years ago at the Barbary Coast. I was playing a machine on the other side of the casino and could not see the stage. I seriously thought it was an Elvis CD they were playing because he was that good. When I got up and walked around to the stage side and saw him I was amazed. The next day I brought my wife and the friends that were with us to watch Big Elvis and they were equally amazed. At that time his mother manned a table selling pictures and CD's. My wife bought a picture for me and had Big Elvis autograph it. We still try to see him at least once during our yearly trips to Vegas.
