| THIS PAGE IS A TRIBUTE TO WONDERFUL PEOPLE WITHOUT WHOM THERE WOULD BE NO ELVIS AND MEAT LOAF .COM |
| FRED AND SUSAN DRUEKE |
| THIS IS JESSE SPEAKING. MOST PEOPLE KNOW I HAVE BEEN DOING AN ELVIS TRIBUTE ACT FOR MANY YEARS BUT FEW KNOW JUST HOW IT CAME TO BE ELVIS AND MEAT LOAF .COM. MY BROTHER COLONEL AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ELVIS FANS AND WHEN MEAT LOAF BURST UPON THE SCENE WE BECAME MEAT LOAF FANS ALSO. FAST FORWARD SEVERAL YEARS. COLONEL SAW A NEWSPAPER AD SAYING THAT SOMEONE HAD TICKETS TO A MEAT LOAF CONCERT FOR SALE. YOU MAY ALL SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING. YES, IT WAS FRED AND SUSAN. THEY HAD ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE MEAT LOAF IN CONCERT BUT NOW THAT THEY HAD FINALLY GOTTEN TICKETS SOMETHING HAD COME UP TO PREVENT THEM GOING SO THEY WERE SELLING THE TICKETS. COLONEL BOUGHT THE TICKETS AND TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT THAT IS HOW WE GOT TO KNOW THE DRUEKES. COLONEL MENTIONED HE WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT STARTING TO SING WITH ME AND DO A MEAT LOAF TRIBUTE. FAST FORWARD AGAIN AND WE WERE PLAYING ELVIS AND MEAT LOAF FOR THE DRUEKE FAMILY/BUSINESS PARTIES. FRED, SUSAN, AND ALL THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS WERE SO ENCOURAGING TO US. THEY MAY NEVER KNOW JUST HOW MUCH THEIR WORDS MEANT TO US. I CAN NEVER SAY THANK YOU ENOUGH TO THEM. THEY GOT MY BROTHER TO BEGIN DOING THE MEAT LOAF ACT WITH ME ON A REGULAR BASIS. THANK YOU FRED AND SUSAN AND ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY TOO! THIS IS ONE "ELVIS" WHO WILL ALWAYS BE IN YOUR DEBT. |
