Ballardite wants to be King

Posted by Geeky Swedes on January 5th, 2010

Ballardite Jimmy Peschel works at Foss by day in quality assurance. But this is Jimmy by night (sometimes). Jimmy started impersonating Elvis a few years ago for fun and is getting ready to compete for the third time to be Seattle’s amateur King of Rock and Roll. This Friday is the 13th annual Seattle Invitationals where men and women will pay tribute to the King on his 75th birthday. The event will be held at Club Motor (1950 First Ave. S) on Friday at 8:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased here. Good luck, Jimmy. Er, uh, Elvis!
