A social experiment disguised as a bar band, Tippy Elvis (read the bio) was a local
Las Vegas phenomena that explored the idea of humorous poetry, punk polka and performance art in one gruesome combination. The band made a local celebrity of Dayvid Figler, and illegal substance abusers of the rest of us. Just as we began to figure out what we were doing, we parted ways. But there is always talk of a fabulous reunion with a bitchin' green room. One can only hope. . .
THE MEMBERS
Dayvid Figler - Vocal poetry, master of judicial justice.
Ginger Bruner - Punk Rock Tuba, friend to the clowns.
Brian Weiss - Guitar, occasional vampire.
s.c. jones - Keyboards, accordion and visual stimulation.
Joe Malone - Professional Jazz Drummer, Beauty Queen.
