No Need To Be 'Lonesome On Sunday Night' Nonna's Elvis Competition


Friday 23rd November 2012


Elvis isn't down at the local chip shop after all - but he is about to hit the stage at a Chesterfield venue this weekend.

o Need To Be 'Lonesome On Sunday Night' - Nonna's Elvis Competition

This Sunday (25th November) from 8pm, locally renowned band The Sharpcuts will also be taking to the stage for the evening hosted by Nonna's on Chatsworth Road and will be performing a full warm up set at the gig before 'The King' takes to the stage.

There is a twist in the tale though as 'Elvis' comes in the shape of Nonna's co - owner, Maurizio Mori, who performs regularly as the legend to dramatic effect.

Occasional diamante jumpsuit wearer Maurizio told us, "I grew up with rock 'n' roll - my parents were huge Elvis fans, so naturally, I became a fan too. The act came about back in 1998 when I was persuaded to take the stage and join the Sharpcuts (below) for a charity do - and it's sort of stuck ever since!

Over the years, it's become a bit of a Nonnas tradition - it's always an entertaining evening, and having a band like the Sharpcuts behind me makes it even more so

"Over the years, it's become a bit of a Nonnas tradition - it's always an entertaining evening, and having a band like the Sharpcuts behind me makes it even more so. This weekend we're playing a bumper set too - it's going to be a whole lot of fun; great food, great music, great atmosphere - I can't wait!"

We have 2 Tickets to give away for the evening in our great competition.
