A local man is all shook up after making it to the final of the Elvis tribute contest. Fisher Stevens packed up his jewel jumpsuit and his blue suede shoes and head to the Norbreck Castle in Blackpool to take part in this year’s Elvis European Championships. He was 1 of 72 impersonators of the King who made it to the final 15 in the contest which was entered by tribute artists from all over Europe and America. He said "This is a massive achievement for me. I entered last year and really didn't get anywhere. The Judges were strict and assessed all sorts of things including our likeness to Elvis, our costumes, demeanour, stage presence and if we sounded like him. I was expecting to pack my bags and go home then they announced that I was in the final." Mr Fisher was a salesman before quitting his job to portray Elvis full-time. His work has taken him to Spain, Hungary & France. |
