Great Big Sea Meets ELVIS!

annathepiperOkay, so there I was on the way in to work this morning, listening to my Elvis Favorites playlist on the iPod. The thing gets to the remixed version of "A Little Less Conversation"... and I find myself trying to figure out exactly how I'd arrange that song using Great Big Sea's instrument set.
Then, on several subsequent songs on the playlist, I kept finding myself thinking, "Now would this one be sung by Alan or Séan?"
I think, that least for this morning, my Great Big Sea fandom may in fact have eclipsed my Elvis fandom. ;) But I don't even want to think about how I would probably die from swoon overload on the spot if in the middle of a show GBS ever burst into an Elvis ditty. I can just hear Séan belting out "It's Now Or Never", or Alan crooning "Don't" or "Love Me" or "Don't Be Cruel" (Alan would get all the perky Elvis ditties, but Séan, I think, would have to do anything requiring good ol' fashioned leg-shaking :D ).
Followup 10:50am--I have now learned from the fine folks up on the OKP that GBS has, in fact, covered an Elvis ditty in concert. Apparently, Séan went into Elvis mode with "All Shook Up". To which I must now have myself a fangirl moment. Ahem: "SQUUUEEEEEEEEEE!" Okay done now.

solarbird tells me it is for the best that I wasn't there, on the grounds that my brain would have exploded, and it would have been all embarrassing and stuff. And I would have jumped up on the stage right then and there and done things that polite girls do not do in public, not to mention ruined what little dyke cred I have on the spot!
