Seems all the old Elvis songs have been mentioned so I'll say he was kicked out of his last gig for singing the Platters hit "The Great Pretender".
Cool candid Chris.

Come on people, ?DON?T BE CRUEL?. This is all ?TOO MUCH?, ?I BEG OF YOU?, ?DON?T?, give the poor man ?ONE NIGHT? of peace. Even ?A FOOL SUCH AS I? can see that ?A BIG HUNK OF LOVE? like Elvis is just a ?TEDDY BEAR?. ?IT?S NOW OR NEVER? so let us not ?SURRENDER? to these ?SUSPICIOUS MINDS? and sink to a level where people might say ?YOU?RE THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE?. ?IT HURTS ME? that he is incapable of ?BRINGING IT BACK? as he was once the ?BIG BOSS MAN?. He was a ?LONELY MAN? in this ?LIFE? so we can only believe he is now in the ?PROMISED LAND? but has left us with many ?MEMORIES?. So ?TELL ME WHY?, now Elvis, ?THAT?S SOMEONE YOU NEVER FORGET?. He went from ?RAGS TO RICHES? but he was only the colonel?s ?PUPPET ON A STRING? and was left with ?ONE BROKEN HEART FOR SALE? on his road to ?FAME AND FORTUNE?.
By the way, great capture of motion, Chris. Nice work as usual. Okay 'IT'S OVER, 'I'M LEAVIN'.

Chris glad to come back to this one to see what others have said I was the first to comment and there is nothing there, I hope this hasn't happened many times, have made an effort to catch up a bit. Anyway my pun was very very mild and after seeing Neils what can anybody say

Great capture Chris and Neil's reply is just fabulous.
I guess this chap is just "Lonesome tonight" and this "Guitar Man" is "Gonna get back home somehow" - I hope you "Helped him make it through the night" though ;-)
Sorry my Elvis recollection is pants - it was way before my time !!

it really was Elvis - he left the states in 77 and moved to York. Did you not know?
Can be seen busking outside the market,. near the shambles on a saturday :-)
like the selective focus - makes him stand out nicely

*wipes tears of laughter from her eyes after seeing the image and reading Neil's response, crawls into kitchen, retrieves the magnum olive-oil-aka-wild turkey-whiskey bottle, takes a huge swig, sits in corner winded*
Neil...words fail me.
Chris, terrific image. Love it, love it, love it.

Well Bless my soul, whats wrong with me, My insides are shaking like a leaf on a tree.
Great capture and presentation Chris. I like the blur of the shot, that really adds to the hurry he seemed to be in.
Congrats and Thanks for sharing.

Like your choice for the title though Chris and more the wanted effect of Elvis pants waving in the wind of his hurry (sorry for my...so inventive...and error prone english language) :-))

Dear Chris,
?I FEEL SO BAD? because I haven?t commented on your work lately. ?DON?T ASK ME WHY? maybe it was ?JUST BECAUSE? you know
?OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND?
?ARE YOU SINCERE? about the Elvis puns Chris or did you just want to ?ASK ME??
OK ?PADRE?, ?LET ME? take up the challenge and see what sort of ?BIG LOVE, BIG HEARTBREAK? story i can come up with.
To me this photo brings back ?MEMORIES? of ?MEMPHIS TENNESSEE? when I said
?NEVER AGAIN? after ?MY ?BABY LEFT ME? ?ONE NIGHT?. I knew she was nothing but
?T-R-O-U-B-L-E?!
I asked her to ?GIVE ME THE MONEY HONEY? and ?RECONSIDER BABY? not to ?RUNAWAY?. ?SHE WEARS MY RING? after all and ?SHE THINKS I STILL CARE?.
But Chris, you know ?I?M LEFT, YOU?RE RIGHT, SHE?S GONE?, ?I GOT STUNG? ?I FEEL SO BAD? It I want ?SHOUT IT OUT?,
anything ?SOMETHING?.
What did I learn from all this...? well?
?ONCE IS ENOUGH? it was after all only a ?ONE SIDED AFFAIR? you know,
so come on Chris ?HELP ME MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT?
In this ?CITY BY NIGHT? shot you have truly captured the Elvis ?FEVER? and ?THIS TIME?
?I BELIEVE? your shot here was not only down to ?BEGINNERS LUCK? because you are a good photographer. ?SEEING IS BELIEVING? as the saying goes and it seems you the same exposure system as me, I call it the ?DON?T THINK TWICE IT?S ALRIGHT? system.
Hope the outcome of your evening was ?A HAPPY ENDING?
Don?t forget whenever you see this photo again ?YOU?LL THINK OF ME? and when on your next holiday ?WRITE TO ME FROM NAPLES?
Now Chris ?YOU DON?T HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME? remember I only did this
because ?YOU ASKED ME TO? and I was ?DOIN? THE BEST I CAN? ?FOR OL? TIMES SAKE?
Cheers for now ?GOT A LOT O? LIVIN? TO DO? ?HAVE A HAPPY DAY?
Neil
By the way nice photo! *smile*
