I was texting a friend this evening, and after watching your Mean Girl Elvis post, I texted my friend and reminded him he kind of looked like Elvis. Then he wrote back and said when he was in Canada, women thought he was Burton Cummings and they got mad when he said he was not. So I find this, by accident, looking for Burton Cummings songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oHb4rZfaYE and look what shirt Burton is wearing!!!????
