Hi Lisa and Chris
At Blackpool this year I had some items for sale in my room (cut it out Bulmer - let me explain!)
A guy and his wife came up and brought an Elvis shirt and we got talking about the contest.
He was singing the praises of a Chris Conner and I was kinda 'yeh, yeh' because I had not heard of him.
During the contest I said hello to Chris and had a couple of chats - I was on stage just after him so I didn't get to see his performance but I knew there was a buzz around the place about this new guy.
I've just watched the two clips and I have to say Chris has improved on every level as an ETA. Don't get me wrong he put in a very good performance at Blackpool but he has obviously been paying attention to Steve Preston and his performance is now very close to the real deal.
So well done, Chris, you have taken the opportunity and worked hard and I'm sure you will benefit from the rewards - which in your case - will be substantial!
I wish you well in Memphis, but there may be politics involved in the contest - Mario had to go over about 6 times before they finally gave him the crown! That said who knows - you may just knock them all bandy over there!
Chris, you are a credit to UK's ETA's and you have many years ahead of you to keep working on the show - you can always learn in this game - trust me I've been there for 20 years. You have a great mentor in Steve - what that guy doesn't know about Elvis and Elvis Tributes is not worth knowing - so you are in a safe pair of hands.
Keep me posted if you're ever down South - we will come and see you.
Lisa - don't get bullied into buying those two a drink - they try it on with anyone!!!

oohh oohh oohh mr duncan thats slanderous coments you was'nt complaining last january when wewas trying with you

Hi Neil, thanks so much for that message. Thats much appreciated by myself and Chris. We are looking forward to Memphis, Chris will do his best in the comp thats all he can do, if he wins that will be great, if he doesn't the experience and seeing graceland, and Memphis will be a prize in itself. Hope to meet you again soon.

take care.... lisa xx

One last thing Lisa, next time you see Steve Preston, can you ask him how he fits that big ELVIS sign into his Austin A40?
Take care
Neil

Great performance Chris. The folks in the USA are going to be tested this year. Will they vote for the guy who's tribute to Elvis really is the one most worthy of winning the title, or will the politics etc decide on the winner?? It's going to be very interesting.

TCB,

Mal

thanks for the message, we dont know what to expect, but just looking forward to the whole experience. There are many great eta's out there. see you soon. x

Chris is the best I've seen (on youtube that is - never been to see an ETA perform live) and his voice is very good.
