Congratulations to
All for making the
Seventh Annual
Montreal Showcase
A complete success
As the autumn leaves begin to change color and the cool breeze fills the night air, every Elvis fan gears up for a great time at The Montreal Performers Showcase.  We are thrilled most folks have become aware this is an event not to be missed, as each year the attendance is bigger than the previous .  Montreal and out of town fans didn’t want to chance not having a seat, so they purchased their tickets early and our ETAs enjoyed performing for a very excited, over capacity filled house!  
Our seventh annual Showcase saw two sets of stars - the Elvis entertainers and the wonderful audience who came to support them.  Everyone  was appreciative of each other, making this such a special event.  It was like  an “old home weekend” with friendly people talking and catching up with other fans they had met at previous Showcases.  Many had followed the ETAs during the summer Festivals and were eager to see and talk to them in Montreal, with many fans traveling quite a great distance to do so.   We had three entertainers from Quebec who were befriended by our cast of US, Ontario and New Brunswick performers , and all they could say was “wow - what a gentlemanly group of guys” .   Well friends, to Montreal, they were all fantastic and all paid homage to the memory of the King on this the 30th year of Elvis’ passing.   We’ve got to  include little “Elvis Boy” Jackson Begley in our kudos, because he certainly lit up the faces  & hearts of everyone in the house on both nights!  
Among the fantastic crowd, were  60 very enthusiastic ladies from four different branches  of the “Red Hat Society”, groups from the Montreal & Hull Casinos,  visitors from the US, Ontario and of course many Montrealers (on and off the island).  Boy could they party and boy did the ETAs get a kick out of their being there!  Thank you Elvis fans, thank you ETAs, thank you LLM crew, you’ve made our 7th annual another huge success!  God Bless and adios until next year, when we’ll present our Eighth Annual on October 3 & 4, 2008.   We hope you will   enjoy some of the wonderful photos souvenirs from the show, which were taken by LLM photographer, Doug McCready - Joanna
