ELVIS TRIBUTE SCOTLAND - PAUL THORPE
The first famous singer known by one name only... “Presley” was rarely mentioned. Everyone knows who you mean..... and almost everyone in the world instantly says ...”The King of Rock ‘n Roll”.
But Elvis Presley did not reign as the King for long enough. ..... and since his premature passing, the world has seen many men don a Jumpsuit or the tight leathers.. Curl their top lips, swivel their snake hips ... and then fail to impress.
Let’s face it, you do need a very big man to follow Elvis Aaron Presley ; and Paul Francis Thorpe certainly IS a very big man! Standing at an impressive 6ft 5”, ladies would describe him as a very large “Hunk of Burning Love” and it would take a brave man to step on his Blue Suede Shoes!
Paul’s show is not tongue in cheek. There is no silly wig or stick-on sideburns and definitely no big fat belly squeezed into a quick-fit fitters white boiler-suit. Oh no, Paul entertains from the curtain to the encore. Non of the obscure songs and all of the greatest hits we all remember....delivered with style and watched in awe.
Elvis IS dead and he isn’t down our chip shop ... But if you still love him don’t miss this show!
