January 30, 2010 Elvis Tribute @ Hennessey's Bar & Grill in Huntington Station

January 30, 2010 Elvis Tribute @ Hennessey's Bar & Grill in Huntington Station


The 16th Annual Elvis Show will take place on January 30th, 2009 at Hennessey’s Bar & Grill in Huntington Station. The Elvis Show features over 30 Long Island musicians in a tribute to Elvis Presley. Admission is $10 along with a HEALTHY and NUTRITIOUS NON-PERISHABLE FOOD DONATION. All proceeds will to aid local emergency food agencies. Over the past 20 years the Elvis Show has raised over $40,000 to help stop hunger on Long Island.

Scheduled to appear are members of The Lone Sharks, The Hornets, The Mary Lamont Band, The Vendettas, The Bossa Nova Beatniks, The Hideaways, The Blaggards, Old School, The Purple Gang, The Bluebeats and featuring appearances by Annie Mark, Monica Passin, Jon Geffner, Gene Casey, “Memphis” Mike Lafata, Mary Lamont, Tom Ciorciari, Russ Seeger, Sean O’Neill, Tom Ryan, Rich Umbach, Mick Hargreaves, John McGraw, Keith Hille, Tom Gould, Mike Bifulco, Stephan Molfetta, Joe Rock and many more.

The shows founder and host, Steven Prisco said that the need to lend a helping hand is greater than ever this year. “In these troubled times with more people out of work than ever before the food pantries are finding themselves unable to keep up with the demand. The Elvis Show may be a drop in the bucket, but it does show how you can make a big difference in someone’s life with just a little effort.”

The Elvis Show will team up again this year with rockCANroll to help collect and distribute the food and proceeds from the show. rockCANroll, Inc., is a volunteer, non profit, hunger relief organization committed to restocking the dwindling shelves of local food pantries, soup kitchens, safe homes and shelters. The concept is simple, the rewards are immense! For a list of most needed foods, go to: www.rockCANroll.org
