Emily Crane talks to Max Pellicano direct from America, as he puts the finishing touches on an exciting new show that will land in Penrith next month...
MEMORY OF THE KING LIVES ON AND ON
T
he memory and legend of the world’s most popular performer lives on through the guise of Max Pellicano, whose uncanny resemblance and equally chilling performance has mesmerised Australian audiences for the last two decades. Is it a wonder some people still refuse to believe that Elvis Presley is dead? And now Max returns to Australia next month with a brand new musical spectacular: ‘Follow That Dream – The Gospel According to Elvis’. ‘Follow That Dream’ is best described as a multi-media stage play that recounts the career and private life of Elvis Presley through song, storytelling and video. The new musical follows Elvis after his passing – reflecting on an extraordinary life from humble beginnings in Tupelo, Mississippi, to a life of excess in Las Vegas. The production uses visionary silhouette performance techniques and introduces the audience to those who helped shape Elvis into the King – from his parents, to Priscilla and from The Colonel to Sam Phillips at Sun Studios. This theatre show has Max Pellicano cleverly telling the life story of Elvis with words, songs and silhouette actions behind screened panels on each side of him, plus an overhead video screen displaying phases of Elvis’ life and appearances. It is a must-see for any fan of the King or anyone who simply loved the music from that era, or grew up in a time when music meant something. “We worked on this musical for about three months, but I was writing it for six. We had to rewrite it a few times before we came up with this interesting
FYi Issue 72 Editor Troy Dodds Troy.Dodds@mediaview.com.au
mix of multi-media,” Max said. “The thing that’s is hard in the musical is that I don’t portray Elvis as his character [on stage], I portray him as the human being that he was.” But Max Pellicano’s tribute to Elvis goes beyond mere impersonation. His recreation of the King’s looks, moves, vocal style, impressions and humour is so accurate it’s awe-inspiring to watch. Max was born in Monte Carlo, of French and Italian parents. He spent most of his childhood in New York before moving to San Francisco at the age of 14. Today, he is based in Detroit. He has been a professional actor and entertainer since 1974 when he graduated from the California State University with a degree in Dramatic Arts. Max Pellicano first brought Elvis to life as an actor on stage in a production of ‘Bye Bye Birdie’. “I was doing musicals and theatre and had to study ‘Jailhouse Rock’ for my role as the Elvis-type character, Conrad Birdie. I studied the way he walked, the way he talked and the way he moved for months. I guess you could say I got into impersonating Elvis in a kind of roundabout way,” he said. His performance led to an Elvis tribute show and the rest is history. “I learnt long ago that the fans don’t want the legend to die. They want to keep the memory going,” Max said. He still spends many hours in front of the television watching movies and listening to records. “I watch a lot of old live concerts and it’s actually kind of easy to study Elvis because I really enjoy watching his shows,” he said.

Max stresses that he is an actor recreating a character and it is an illusion. Some see it differently though – one of Max’s strangest requests was when a couple in Los Angeles asked him to bless their child. There are more than 6,000 professional Elvis impersonators in the world and countless amateurs. “It’s hard to copy the original, but what we try and do is recreate the Elvis concert and give people a chance to see what it might have been like to see Elvis perform live,” Max said. Max Pellicano has appeared in feature films, notably ‘De Vinci’s War’, ‘The Gangster Chronicles’ and ‘Sharon The Portrait Of A Mistress’. He has performed with The Jordanaires, JD Sumner & The Stamps, the late George Burns, Dion, Helen Reddy, Little Anthony & The Imperials, Dolly Parton, The Coasters, Del Shannon, The Shirelles, Don Rickles and Davy Jones (of The Monkees fame). But despite his wide-spanning genres of work, Max says his audiences out here in Australia will be pleasantly surprised with ‘Follow That Dream’ and what the new exciting show has to offer them.
“The nice thing about this performance is that audiences would never have seen me in a musical – it’s really exciting to be working with this new project and I’m sure the audience will love it,” he said. ‘Follow That Dream – The Gospel According to Elvis’ is jam packed with the music and history of the legend Elvis Presley. Don’t miss your chance to see Max Pellicano pay tribute to the King of Rock and Roll, complete with a live band and backing singers – a befitting tribute to a cultural icon. You’ll think you are seeing the real thing! Max Pellicano performs in ‘Follow That Dream – The Gospel According to Elvis’ at the EVAN Theatre Penrith Panthers on Saturday, March 10.

International folk artist Eric Bibb has travelled the world, sharing his soulful tunes with music lovers everywhere, but he still finds Australia one of his favourite places. Ever since he was a child, originally from New York, but with many different homes since, Eric has lived and breathed music. At the age of seven, Eric was given his first steel-string guitar and his passion for music spurred from then. Drawing inspiration from his father, Leon Bibb, a trained singer who made a name for himself in the 1960’s folk scene, Eric began to develop his own sound and following this, his professional career emerged at the age of 16. “My dad was the reason my passion for music took off,” said Eric. “I performed with him only the other day, just before his 90th birthday, and it is always great to perform with him.” Since his first gig, playing guitar for his father’s band, Eric’s career never slowed down. “I am always on the road from place to place, airport to gig, gig to gig, gig to airport,” he said. And this hard working, non-stop attitude has left Eric with countless award nominations, appearances on many TV and radio shows
and over 20 albums, including DVD’s and compilations. Eric Bibb is always recording with new and interesting people and he confided to FYI how excited he was recently, to cross off something on his ‘Bucket list’. “I had the opportunity to travel to West Africa and record with Habib Koité, a hero of mine, a recording opportunity which has been on my bucket list for some time,” Eric said. “Our record will be coming out later this year. It was a thrill to record with him and to see West Africa for the first time.” Eric’s career has had many highlights but, when asked what he considered his greatest achievement, he insisted that recording with, and meeting his heroes is far better than any achievements. “So many wonderful things have come from being a musician. Having the opportunity to record with a number of my heroes is by far, my best accomplishment,” he said. Eric has toured Australia before, sharing his music with as many as he can and he loves performing here. “Australia really energised me to perform because of the enthusiasm and appreciation that the music lovers display,” he said. This March, Eric returns to Australia, much to his joy, bringing a fresh new sound and a brilliant combination of sounds. Eric will be bringing his sound to the Q Theatre at the Joan Sutherland Centre on Friday, March 9. Visit www.gaynorcrawford.com. Don’t forget to follow The Western Weekender on Twitter or Facebook!

LAST WORDS
PUB ROCK ROYALTY

Nathan Taylor chats with Choirboys lead vocalist, Mark Gable about their show in Rooty Hill...
A
ustralia’s legendary ‘pub rock’ band Choirboys continue their solid tour around Australia this year as they add more shows to their ever popular ‘Never Gonna Die 30th Anniversary’ tour. With a career spanning more than 30 years, the original Choirboys line-up has reunited and will rock audiences as they traverse their musical history with classics such as ‘Boys Will Be Boys’, ‘Never Gonna Die’ and the Aussie smash hit ‘Run To Paradise’. Choirboys will perform at the Lone Pine Tavern in Rooty Hill on Saturday, February 18.
Australia and that is ‘pub rock’. Australians invented pub rock and without Australian pubs you wouldn’t have bands like AC/DC, INXS, Midnight Oil and Men At Work. But unfortunately that culture is gone now, so whenever we go out and do our thing we’re celebrating that and people really seem to dig it.
This 30th Anniversary tour has been running now since 2010, the fans must love having you guys back for it to last so long? They have because of the heritage and because the band has been around for so long. When we go do our thing it’s celebrating our heritage, it’s celebrating our heritage of something that was invented in
What’s it like performing these days compared the ‘wild’ years in the ‘80s? From my perspective it’s much easier to do and far more fun. It’s like that because we don’t have to go out and say ‘We have to put on an amazing show because our careers depend on it’. We’ve been together for 30 years and it’s just fun, there’s no pressure and we don’t have anything to prove anymore. It must feel like ‘home’ having the original line-up back together? It makes a travesty of all the years we didn’t have the original line-up together
(laughs). As soon as we got into rehearsal we were running through stuff like ‘Run To Paradise’ and I go ‘Ah that’s how it’s supposed to sound!’ Because these are the guys that played on the original record, you can’t replace that. Your most famous song ‘Run To Paradise’ is a timeless Aussie classic, does it amaze you that the song is still hugely popular in pubs and on the radio? When you look at radio station playlists they are mainly focused on the big stuff that happened in the ‘70s and then the halcyon days of the ‘80s. This is why these bands are celebrated, this is why Choirboys are celebrated, this is why everyone looks at INXS and Cold Chisel, it’s because they happened because of cultural things like ‘pub culture’ and everything was at its peak in the ‘80s. ‘Run To Paradise’ is one of those songs because it represents not just a song but it represents a cultural thing.
