The holidays don't stop until we've once again celebrated the birth of the King. No, the other one. Truly it is this event that makes this the most wondrous time of the year: friends and family gathering to decorate the Elvis tree and join in a celebratory chorus of Elvis carols before sitting down to a delicious traditional dinner of fried peanut-butter-and-banana sandwiches. Then it's time to venture forth to KYYS 99.7's Elvis Birthday Bash and pay tribute to the King through the pageantry of revered individuals clad in ceremonial Presley garb spreading his joyous message. It is on this day, January 8, that we are reminded to forever keep Elvis in our hearts as we make a holiday wish for all the world's people: Elvis bless us, every one.
