My world feeds on beauty, letme show you. ☎4921This Saturday is Elvis’ Birthday. It’s a crappy time of year to have to cannonball yet another important birthday.Enduring a month and a half of Christmas cheer is more than enough to wreck the health and spirit of even the mostenthusiastic Elviphile, but adding the lagniappe of New Year’s Eve to the Christmas package is like tossing down ashot of Jäger at the end of a huge holiday beer bong. By the time Elmas rolls around, you’re still driving theTechnicolor Buick with the porcelain steering wheel, metaphorically speaking. Hair of the dog, anyone? Sure, Elviswas no Jesus. Jesus died on a cross, Elvis died on a toilet. Jesus died for your sins, Elvis died because of his. Jesuswas the King of Kings, Elvis was simply “The Kang.” Both were nice guys and beloved by many, but there is a hugedisparity between granting someone eternal salvation and giving them a brand new Cadillac with wire rims. Restassured, if the Kang were in possession of the keys to eternal salvation, he’d have spread them around like peanutbutter. As it turns out, El was of slightly lower pedigree than the bastard son of God and therefore had to give the nextbest thing: Cadillacs. He also shared his heavenly voice and, posthumously, his face: on postage stamps; velvetpaintings sold by roadside vendors; and those obscenely cheap polyester fleece blankets you see in Mexican bordertowns. Like Jesus, Elvis suffered a death we’d all much rather sweep under the carpet, which means we celebrate hisbirthday with much greater pomp and circumstance than the day he died, even if it means putting off a few New Year’sresolutions in order to engage in the type of mindless excess that fittingly commemorates His life. This Friday andSaturday, Ted Roddy is back at the Continental Club with his annual Tribute to the King, a two night Elmas event thatexudes all the kitschy passion of the Kang. Since 1986 Roddy, who looks nothing like the Kang but does a respectablevocal impersonation, has been spreading the E-love with a rocking cast of players from some of Austin’s finest bands.This year he and his King Conjure Orchestra share the stage with roots rocker Shaun Young and his New Blue MoonBoys. Surely they will “shine on the one that’s gone and left [us] blue.”
