What Will Make You Jump In 2005?

January 06, 2005 | Other
Starting this new year ElvisNews.com introduces a new section to the site. Starting this month we have a new columnist on-line who will comment the news in his own unique style. Who other than the columnist himself (who you might already know from his postings on this site) can do the introductions? Therefor we give you ...

Byebye 2004, welcome 2005! And with the new year I am honored to introduce a new, regular column in ElvisNews.com. Written by yours faithfully.

And your faithfully in this case, is me. Espen K, a thirty-something year old man from Norway. I am the editor of Nattguiden, a norwegian webzine with focus on clubb/music/youth culture in Oslo. In the weekends you may find me working as a DJ, pumping the beats of today out to the kids of today.

So, what am I doing here, you may ask.

Many find it strange that I can both be an active participant in todays modern dance music/culture, as well as an enthusiastic Elvis-fan. On the contrary, in my opinion. It makes perfect sense. Elvis was the beginning of modern music. But not only that, he was the beginning of modern entertainment as we know it today. And his incredible talent still shine, his music is still so alive, decades after he passed away. How could I NOT be thrilled by such a man?

Read my complete column in the article section (available through the portal)!

PS: You must not underestimate the powers of the norwegian commies either, Mal. Many men has done so in the past, and noone know where they are today. ;)

Congratulations Esben.... With a Norwegian to ride the litterarian horse of "our man" (As Elvis was called in the good old days DanishElvismagazine "Elvisette") we can only expect for humourus, biting and tongue-in-cheek . And who knows .... perhaps Esben is capable of convincing Per "Elvis" Granberg to a come-back - in black leather... Imjustaroustabout

Thanks for the kind words, guys! I'll do my best to not let you down. And Jim, no offense to mr. Granberg but Elvis is probably the only male person I really want to watch in black leather, dude. ;) Kind regards, Espen
