12th ANNIVERSARY OF ELVIS 100%

HAPPY DAYS CASCAIS - 24/03/2013

The year 2013 marks the 12th Anniversary of Elvis 100% existence and activity. As such, we have organized a meeting to celebrate with the members on 24th March 2013. The chosen place was the restaurante Happy Days, in Cascais. All present members received welcome sachets, with an Elvis postcard and sticker, and candy. And 6 raffles on Elvis' articles were done. Besides all this, we could count with the performance of the Elvis tribute artist, Francisco Peças, and one of the co-founders of the fan club, Carlos Santos. See some photos below, which illustrate this day and these events!

SOME TESTIMONIES OF PEOPLE PRESENT:

Fernanda Bacelar: "I am now a fan of Francisco and Carlos!"

João Pinho:
"I really enjoyed listening to Carlos sing, since I had never heard him before. And his son is also quite able at the drums. I had a lot of fun and it was a very enjoyable afternoon."

Daniel Bacelar: "They both have great voices!"

Orlando Jarra: "It was a very enjoyable afternoon. Once again, thanks for the invitation!"

Ana Paula Ferreira: "Ever since sunday that my husband is always saying that now he enjoys listening to Elvis, he said he was quite impressed of how we speak of him with so much love and he does not forget seeing me very emotional when I heard Love Me Tender (it was as almost Elvis was singing). I have already listened to many performers, but Francisco indeed sings very well. My husband is crazy for the Beatles and he went to see Paul McCartney when he was in Portugal, but he says he didn't feel the emotion he saw in all of us on sunday. The power that Elvis still has over people, to this very day."

Victor Rodrigues: "It's well worth it to travel from afar to socialize with people of good taste and enjoy music with the simplicity, humor and love with which Carlos and Francisco presented us. Thank you all and, in particular, thank you Célia and Jorge, a very special hug!"
