    I think Elvis would feel honored to have inspired so many men to want to pay tribute to him, he was a good soul:)

    wow.....sure wish I could have been there but...live in Canada and hey...the Collingwood festival really rocks.
    Donny will be there this summer and because it is another competition for the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist...so will others from around the world. So why not come up here and experience the largest festival outside of Memphis?
    Just in case you don't know....am a diehard fan and a grandmother of seven boys..yep...but am not old..lol..Love Elvis..

    See Shawn in concert and you will see than any OBJECTIVE Elvis fan cannot deny the uncanny ability of Shawn to bring Elvis back. Every move, every look, every detail is Elvis. There is not even a close second. We all have our favorite ETA, but if you're talking about an objective opinion of a re-creation, Shawn is the best, hands down.

    in the first one I saw here,Elvis never moved that fast. i was in Hawaii in the audience when he taped the aloha special. I know all his moves and that voice. there will never be another Elvis.

  • @oncom2008
    @oncom2008 14 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Infact there is no other Elvis.
    But to impersonate Elvis need a special talent as well. Thanks to them to keep Elvis ALIVE!

  • @n8trsho
    @n8trsho 13 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Nearly four years later, Shawn continues to dominate the ETA world selling out arenas all over the world and still playing to hometown audiences in little Pittston PA. He's the best and if anything, has gotten better over the past four years. The performance is the most authentic in the world...no one can come close. Even Joe Esposito agrees and he 2010 Vegas performance was historic, and repeats again this July! Be there!

  • @CoryMill
    @CoryMill 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think that actual songs, he recorded 750, but with concerts and other versions of similar songs, I have heard around 1000 to 1100. Or something like that. I have been listening to Elvis since I was 3, and I am now 37. I am so glad that youtube is here to see Elvis footage of concerts that one might not see otherwise.

    well done to all three in the finals,
    i think trent does a great great show, but shawn just pulls out those extras and he is the man.
    he deserved to win, he is the greatest eta in the world full stop, i am convinced elvis would be glued to the stage if he saw shawn klush, shawn does our profession proud.

    Wow, that Shawn Klush guy really is something. He did Elvis some justice at least, compared to the others... The way he sounds and speaks is like Elvis, and his side profile from far kinda have the Elvis look too..
    I'm not saying he looks exactly like Elvis, but he has that Elvis thing going on in him.... They are impersonator, so I guess we shouldn't compare too much to the real King!

    Well I have never seen Trent in person...and he is not one of my favs. But was familiar with some of the top twenty-five. Quite a few were from Canada...where I live...and do attend the Collingwood Festival...where most of the ETAs perform at one time or another. It is the closest I will ever come to seeing or hearing the "PREELESS" Elvis. Right on..

    @CoryMill 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I agree with you. I don't care who it is, NOBODY is like Elvis!!!! Whether they win an ETA contest or not. It is impossible to have everything that that man had.

  • @theperkinsbrothers
    @theperkinsbrothers 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why would we as Elvis fans care to rate anyone OVER someone. Shawn is what I saw on stage back in the 70's. I am a fa of his. I am also a fan of anyone who makes the attempt but no one is ULTIMATE ELVIS except for Elvis. Graceland made it clear just what they think the BEST ELVIS is worth for a year, $5,000. The Best Elvis (if there is such a thing) i would be better off seling fries for McD's. At least they pay minimum wage. I stand by my comments above and wish every "Elvis" the best.

  • @desttre
    @desttre 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    yes...is a fact...this is what is going to make all ETA festivals that much more interesting.
    I am from Canada...and love the Collingwood festival.
    But did think it was a one time thing. The best of the best do perform there. So the legend does live on. Do you know what...my brother, who was an avid Elvis fan just passed on and as sad as I am.......in the memorial pic....his wife chose a pic........and he is wearing a t-shirt..the legend still lives. as was my brother...

  • @starr522
    @starr522 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You are so right with your comment . So many Elvi out there that are not even close. And I have to say on this contest, damn if they didn t pick the worst. lol Ain t that the way it always goes? Besh regards. Starr

  • @Elvisguy
    @Elvisguy 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Every person has a "favorite" ETA somewhere in the world. So maybe the ETA with the most fans should enter the Images of the King in memphis, Tn at the Holiday Inn Select next August ..chances are (I hear) the more people you have backing ya..the greater the chance is you will win (wink/wink) lol

    @LuvinElvisnLisa 16 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    WTG Shawn!! Watching this, you can see the disapointment on Trent's face, Donny hugged him right away, who also is really good!!!
    As far as ETA's go, there are many who thik they are all that, and they are not! I like a good personality!!! Not these who "think" they are Elvis!

  • @dmljm
    @dmljm 16 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Shawn did a great job and when they annouced his name, Trent was shocked he didnt win lol Trents great but Shawn is more down to earth and im glad he won!

  • @desttre
    @desttre 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    know what you mean...have been playing tapes in my car for my grandsons......they cannot escape.....lol...and if one has any appreciation of a voice that is unique...and so diversified.....find "Lovin Arms" or "Just Pretend" or "American Trilogy" for them to listen to..wow........Elvis was not just rock and roll...let me know.

  • @Elvisguy
    @Elvisguy 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My mother did know the "real" Elvis...she met him at the Louisiana Hayride in 54 and kept up with him for the remainder of his life. She loved "the man". I've gotten to know many members of the Presley family over the years living in Tupelo, Ms & as an entertainer, I've met my share of ETA's and most are so stuck on themselves they can't see straight & think they ARE Elvis. "Contests" as stated before turn my stomach as well as the overall meaning FOR them. Keep it real guys! TCB

    i totally agree. he is definetly one of the best i have seen, and im addicted to watching ETA's. Him and Gino Monopoli will always be my favorites.

  • @desttre
    @desttre 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    well that really is quite poignant. Very touching. And you knew Andy Kaufman..do remember him also. I guess my bottom line is..all the ETAs do their best and we all have our favs. I am not promoting the Collinwood festival but the best competitors are there and the winners do return for years after.....because it is such fun. Love Elvis........yessssss.

    @nashville6120 16 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Shawn IS the best....here is why...
    He does NOT over do all the "classic" Elvis cliches. He channels Elvis very naturally...his mannerisms are amazingly right in the pocket. His vocal tones are not always DEAD on, but they are very good and his pronunciation is almost PERFECT. He brings 70's Elvis to life in a respectful and very believable way. He is not a Cartoonish Elvis like Trent Carlini and so many others...I'm tired of Elvis tribute artists making a big stupid joke of the whole thing.

  • @desttre
    @desttre 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    Heyyy...just discovered that Doug Church will be at the Collingwood Festival. Sure would like to see him live.....But will not have the time....sheeeesh..Must see Stephen Kabakos... but if I do get a chance......will certainly cheack him out.

  • @dunskie
    @dunskie 17 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the recomendation. He is really good. I still have to Say that Doug Church is in a class by himself.
    However, it is comforting to know that there are a few guys out there who actually do a tribute of E that is worthwhile.

    Hi Indtuder...did see Elvis in 1956..on tv...the tommy dorsy stage show...Jan..56..was balck and white..so unless you are as old as I..and hey...bye the way...all the ETAs have so much talent..there are some that have the humbleness that Elvis had....and some that do not.

  • @stratojamesnz
    @stratojamesnz 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Shawn Klosh is really good and has a healthy respect for Elvis but everyone there and the judges really need to see Justin Shandor!!! right here on youtube here we actually have a guy here that can really sing anything any style yet prefer's Elvis to sing....and doe's the 50s Elvis like no other and on the same nite comes out and does'How great thou art' with the power and control that Elvis had complete with that big bellowing 70s voice....now thats a trick.

  • @desttre
    @desttre 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    sorry...am a diehard Elvis fan but...as you said we all have our own ETAs. And I do think there are a few....very few who equal Shawn....He was totally amazing at the Collingwood festival a few weeks ago. btw...Collingwood Ontario Canada is the largest in the world outside of Memphis

  • @theperkinsbrothers
    @theperkinsbrothers 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This contest is such a scream. No-one is, or ever will be the ULTIMATE ELVIS except for Elvis. The rest of us are all pretenders, most sincere, some just for laughs, and some just delusional. It is a joke for EP enterprises to say the BEST IN THE WORLD is worth $5,000. It should have been a $1,000,000 and a tour with the TCB band. Just so you know, I am, and always will be a huge SHAWN KLUSH FAN. I went to the ELVIS CONCERTS in the 70's and Shawn takes me back everytime I see him perform.

  • @CoryMill
    @CoryMill 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yeah, but with some of the comments of people they think that some of these guys are just like Elvis, and it isn't true. I get tired of reading the comments, but sometimes I am drawn to the videos when they have "the best Elvis tribute artist" and I have to watch and see.

  • @longtalltexan63

    UK Tribute Artists Paul Molloy & Jay Ashton perform in "The Wonder Of Elvis" ... the Concert. The footage for these clips was taken at the Show's Anniversary Tribute to Elvis, at the Library Theatre in Darwen on 15 August 2009 From the front row the sound quality isn't always the best (apologies) but the view is great ! It's a wonderful tribute to a legend.
