Krewe of Rolling Elvi to Get Off Their Scooters and Jailhouse Rock


by Brad Rhines

The Krewe of Rolling Elvi will add some new twists, turns, and hip swivels to their Carnival appearances this year with the Jailhouse Rockers, an all-Elvi dance krewe inspired by the King’s 1957 film.  The Rockers debuted late last year, but this will be their first Mardi Gras, as they join the procession of Elvi and Priscillas in this year’s Muses parade.
