Last weekend, the 3rd German Elvis Festival in Rostock took place. The Open Air - event www.remember-elvis.de was well organised; and everyone there enjoyed the fun and laughter. All in all, the atmosphere was great! The main attractions for Elvis Fans were the four original Elvis VIPs:

  • Hollywood actrice, Cynthia Pepper, who worked with Elvis in his MGM motion picture "Kissin' Cousins"
  • Ed Bonja, Tourmanager and official photographer for the Elvis Presley Show
  • Dick Grob, chief of the security and member of the Memphis Mafia
  • Sam Thompson, former police officer and bodyguard for Elvis Presley

According to the host, there were over 2120 visitors to the event; and all had the opportunity to buy the latest CD and book releases and souvenirs from the Elvis dealers.

There was a drawing in which everyone got a chance to win products that where sponsored by Praytome Publishing.

The Elvis VIPs were accessible to everyone and had a great time answering fans’ questions and fulfilling requests from autograph seekers. A lot of fans took the day to get their copy of the new Praytome Publishing release, “My Years With Elvis & The Colonel,” signed by Sam Thompson who contributed the foreword for the book.
