  • Look at Nils laugh, brilliant

  • what a great man springsteen!

  • so who's REALLY the King?!

  • thats what i call a great singer, Mr Springsteen!!

  • can't tell how many times i've watched this by now - absolutely something that could only happen in philly! tremendously great footage, glad you captured this gem in such a brilliant quality!

  • way to come in at the wrong part of the progression Elvis. haha

  • Just stumbled upon this - great stuff. Not many performers would have been comfortable with this. Bruce is the Boss. Well done Elvis too - I'd have frozen in your postition! Great fun

  • Elvis is Alive! etc etc...

  • Rob byrdon sent me to THE BOSS haha so cool!!!

  • I just read about this in this months Reader's Digest.

  • To The Magik Rat...........Thank you so much for posting the information. Last May my father-in-law was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. He battled all summer with chemo and Radiation. As of Dec 2010 he was cleared of cancer. Thank you again and if EVERYONE can just donate $5 or $10 dollars then we will be able to hit our goal of $100K by April 21st. God Bless....The Philly Elvis

  • Only Bruce could have done this.

  • I think Bruce was feeling slightly upstaged for a moment there....

  • @rhm01 Actually when Elvis got warmed op and started singing on Blue Suede Shoes he sounded pretty good.. I think Bruce got worried for a second and had to regain control.

  • Thanks. Check out my web site thephillyelvis  I'm also in the magezine backstreets that is coming out next month.

  • Very cool, Nick, you're really smooth onstage and played the part well. I looked this up after reading about it in the Reader's Digest. Looks like it was one heck of a night. Doesn't get much better than that, right?!

  • This is "The Philly Elvis" I appreciate everyone who enjoyed the video. I have raised money for ACS and LLS since 1992 with my entertainment. Starting Feb 24th 2011 I'll be raising money for LLS for 8 weeks. I have a show on April 16th in Harrisburg PA. ALL proceeds go to LLS. I appreciate your support.

  • @nickyralph You're awesome Philly Elvis. I've been battling Leukemia for 13 months now and I appreciate everything you do for LLS!

  • Well it can't have been planned as "Elvis" didn't even know the right words to the song! C'mon man, if you dress like the king at least get to know his songs. Bruce is a big Elvis fan, and that's just one of the reasons he gets full marks from me! Nice he is humble enough to remember who inspired him. Not a lot of acts do that.

  • you says it all about bruce live is the smile's beaming on each and everyone's of the bands face in concert

  • too bad the real King wasnt around to actually do this

  • this video is amazing! funny great..!!! uuff...great job buddy!!!

  • Hilarious, riotous- Bruce loved every moment! Bravo-

  • incredible and amazing! :-))

  • well translated :)

    perfect german

  • that was just great....ive watched this clip about 10 times what a great moment, you cant beat a bruce show especially when the king arrives!!!

    THANKS NICK YOUR THE GREATEST!!!!!!!!

  • one of the best bruce moments ever...look at nils`s face

  • hey Nick! You really rocked. Enjoyed it!

  • Been a fan for more than 30 years>>>this is a true musician. Who else these days...just decides to play a random song....yells the key to the band and they hit it? Great stuff...total improvision

  • That was awesome! First guy dressed as Elvis I have actually enjoyed watching! Good work! Bruce is a legend too!

  • I LOVE THIS!!! Hahaha lmao.. 'Take it Bruce!' :D Bruce obviously is surprised that Elvis steals his show, although you can tell he likes it.

    I love the way Nils is reacting.

  • Bruce is The Greatest Rocker since Elvis!

  • The New Elvis?

  • Thanks MagikRat!!!! Next time in Philly I'll request Suspicious Minds for an encore.

  • Quite obviously this was NOT planned. Just look at the look of surprise was over Bruce's face as Elvis starts singing. He is quite shocked Elvis is good. His face goes from jovial, to surpirsed back to smiling. Also, Bruce is directing the band when Elvis is singing.

  • "Take it Bruce" ...... check out Nil Lofgren ... LMAO.

    "I have no idea where the fuck he came from ..."

  • This is the Philly Elvis who was on stage with Bruce and the E Street Band. I have been asked many times if it was staged or a plant. I can tell you emphatically that it was not staged nor planted. It was 100% on the cuff, at the moment. I'm happy to see that most of you enjoyed the video. Thanks

  • Buenisimo, me he reido mucho viendolo

  • was he just in the crowd?

  • GREAT video - thanks!

  • Einfach nur göttlich.. vorallem bei 1:52!!! Elvis lebt doch!!!

  • Translates to: Simply divine .. especially at 1:52! Elvis still lives!

  • @TheMagikRat This is The Philly Elvis. From Feb. 24th through April 21st I'll be performing to raise money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. My goal is to raise 100K in 8 weeks. I NEED YOUR HELP!!!! Please go to thephillyelvis to see where I'll be performing, wher to give a monetary donation, and to spread this to everyone you know. Thanks The Philly Elvis

  • look at nils face when elvis starts singing great vid

  • wicked vid

  • Always wanted to see Bruce onstage with Elvis ;)

  • Bruce may be the Boss but Elvis will always be the King-Long Live the King!!

  • Did Bruce say at the end i have no idea where the f*&k he came from.

  • Yep...where in the fuck he came from!

  • this is great!!!

  • "Take it, Bruce!"... Priceless!!!

  • Henry Henry Henry! Love it. I can't even imagine how great it would have been for you! The BOSS!

    Hope all is well. Lots of changes in my household. We need to catch up sometime.

    Take care!

  • Nick, this is easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

  • very cool! peace2u! eric

  • After all these great European shows this summer I had no clue how Bruce and The E-Street Band could ever top this.

    But with all these new US shows,with all these guests and with all these rare songs played these weeks..there are only 2 things to say:

    BRUCE is the greatest performer on this planet and the E-Street Band are the most incredible bunch of musicians ever seen on stage!!!!!!!!!

    No more to say.

  • I can't watch this video enough! Hilarious! Loving the smile on Nils' face! Too funny!

    I love that Bruce gets his fans involved in his shows. Many artists probably would not have allowed something like this. The Boss rocks.....as does "Philly Elvis"!  : )

  • King, can you perform at our block party next year? And bring your sidekick !

  • Good job by the King...

  • hey nick. Its your cousin renee. saw you with bruce. cant believe it. awesome!!

  • Nick,

    WOW! I'll never again think of your pretzels without thinking of your Elvis gig with the Boss...

  • Nick, from now on... you're my hero!

  • Simply fantastic!!

  • hey King, time to come out of retirement!

  • "Come on King, come on King". Then, later "Take it Bruce!" Only at a Springsteen concert!!!

  • Yeah Nick! Saw you on Channel 8 news Wed night. Go Phillies. Orioles next year.

  • Hello Nick, I was so happy that you got this once in a lifetime chance. Miss working with you. Ed-Spotlight

  • Great Camera work Laddy.. Well done. Take it Bruce...too funny

  • Hey great job Nick. I spoke with you briefly on the GA line and liked your sign, I wished you good luck with that, what did the sign say exactly?

  • Un mito!

  • I was there -- this was no set-up. Totally impromptu. Great job King Nick But the real credit goes to Bruce and the legendary E Street Band -- they never missed a beat..

  • grande interpetrazione

  • Really awesome !!!

  • Nick, that was amazing!

  • Un mito!!!

  • Amazing, Nick.... You finally did it.

  • I love it!

  • Hilarious...

  • Looks planned to me but fun to watch anyway.

  • I can personally say this was not planned. Elvis was in the lottery line with all of us 4 hours before the concert started. He was lucky enough to be a low number in the lottery. Also, look at Bruce shrug his shoulders, Nils is cracking up and Max kind of rolls his eyes. Bruce knew he had to regain control after Elvis started Blue Suede Shoes. It was just spectacular.

  • To everyone who saw this video. My name is Nick. I'm the Elvis guy. I can tell you that it was NOT planned. I have been following Bruce since 1975. I have been to over 30 shows. This was a dream come true. I can't even describe how I'm feeling. It was truly magical!!!!!

  • Nick, Nice job. This is funny because I brought a sign for Suspicious Minds. I thought it had a chance because there are trumpets involved. But I'm glad we got

    another Elvis song.

  • Hey, greetings from Germany and congrats on your performance - you did a great job up there! I'm sure being up on stage with Bruce will be an experience you'll never forget! *****

  • simply amazing! :)

  • @YoRalph69 Good Job, Nick!

  • @YoRalph69 "take it Bruce!" that was classic

  • Great ! I wish I could have been there. Seen Bruce 3x so far this year. Will see him again in KC MO hope he surprises us with something similar.

  • oh-my-God.

  • "I have no idea...where the fuck he came from." Classic.

  • Go Nick! That was AWESOME!! How the hell did you make THAT happen????????

    We Love U :)

  • Great job by the Elvis guy! One dream fulfilled!

  • well bless my soul, TOO COOL!

  • WHAT THE FUCK?

  • Bruce just basically gave this guy the keys to the E Street Band..AWESOME!!!!!!!

  • Love the look on Nils' face!

  • From one video shooter to another...what a great job you did at shooting this. And what a great spot you had in the pit.

  • That had to have been planned.

  • Nothing with Bruce is planned.

  • Che personaggio!!! Ed è pure bravo!!!

  • This was F'n great! You can bet they'll post it on Bruce's official site...he didnt do a bad job either!

    I couldn't believe what I was seeing when he hopped on that stage!

  • WOW...over and over again :D

  • Oh man that was too much! I'm sorry but I'm commenting again. I love how he tells Bruce when to solo.

  • I couldn't believe this from a report! I love Bruce's shrug. That guy's got balls! Awesome thanks!

  • he sings pretty good too:)
