: JANUARY 1ST 2008 MESSAGE FROM RICKY
I'd like to start by wishing you all a very Happy New year and thank each and everyone of you who have visited the site , come to gigs, sent me birthday and christmas messages and supported me since the site has been up and running which will be 5 years this year, 5 years, where does time go???
Well what can i say, i've had a great year and i never expected any of it. First of all there was the Ultimate Elvis Contest which i was fortunate enough to come away with the title of Best 50's Elvis. I was gob smacked as i never expected to come anywhere with it being my first time of performing Elvis at a contest. Then i was invited to take part in the BBC Show "Worlds greatest Elvis" I'm beginning to think i'm pretty good at this Elvis thing LOL. I never expected to meet so many new friends out of it all, Paul Molloy, Steve Storm, Gary Gibson, Paul Larcombe, Simon Patrick, Dave B, Kirk "love me" Turner, Shayne Prince, i could go on and on.
Again i've had a really great year and i hope this one is as good if not a little better. Hope to see some friendly faces at a gig soon.
All the best,
Ricky Aron
