My ticket to see ETA Tim E Hendry at the Sanderson Centre in Brantford on November 14 arrived yesterday. Lou Nelson/Tom Jones will also be performing. It promises to be an entertaining evening. I last saw Tim at Welland Canal Days performing in on a very hot August day this past summer. When Tim commented on how hot and sticky he was in his tight, white suit, his guitarist jokingly said, "Yeah, it's like trying to jam two pounds of something in a one pound bag." LOL.
Good things are coming, fingers crossed.
I am hoping to report good news about upcoming interviews with ETAs, managers, promotors, and more. The wheels have been set in motion; now we wait. Stay tuned.
I have written an article called "Keeping His Memory Alive". It is based on my experiences with ETAs these past two years. It was written with the intent to enlighten, inform, amuse, and entertain readers. As it stands now, my article is over 5000 words long, and it keeps growing! Unless someone can suggest another method, I may have to break it up into chapters so I can post it daily on my blog. I hope my writing encourages other ETA fans to openly express their own experiences. Don't be shy! I hear such interesting stories when I talk to other fans at events. These lovely people now have a place, here at SIDEBURNS, to share their stories, photos, and trivia with a wider audience. To get things rolling, I will soon provide you with my bio which explains how I became a fan of Elvis Tribute Artists-- practically overnight!
Concerts in September
I saw Matt Cage on September 2nd, for the second time, in Million Dollar Quartet. And then I saw him again at Flamboro on Friday. On September 16th, my daughters and I will see Steve Michaels in Return to Grace at Fallsview. On September 20th, Gino Monopoli will be at Casino Niagara. And on September 29th, Sylvian Leduc will be performing at Flamboro. An ETA every week in September...isn't life grand!
