2010 Fans' Choice Award- "MALE PERFORMER OF THE YEAR" (Tied)



JOSEPH HALL ERAS OF THE KING WINS

"MALE PERFORMER OF THE YEAR"

FANS' CHOICE AWARD


November 16, 2010 - 2:00 PM

Mr. Kyle Hall (Joseph's father) invited BransonCritic.com Representative Molly Donohue up to center stage to join Joseph Hall before a full house audience at the beginning of the Eras of the King Show.

Then Molly began by saying "We’re here at the newly renovated, historic Owens’ Theatre in the heart of downtown Branson where Joseph Hall has spent his first year in Branson! We couldn’t ignore his presence! Numerous fans took the time to log onto BransonCritic.com and post what they love about this show and this young entertainer. Over and over guests commented on Joseph’s personable, down-to-earth, genuine nature…his attention to his fans, his attention to the details in his performance, and of course the black leather suit was mentioned more than once. Here are some highlights (and you’ll start to hear a theme):

Joseph Hall's first year in Branson, Missouri has been busy...Joseph's fan base is growing daily. More and more people are being introduced to this amazing show…each show is different (featuring) the real early days of Elvis, the 68 special time, military set, movie set, gospel, and the concert years…Joseph is an outstanding entertainer who puts everything he’s got into his show…Elvis would be proud…

What a show, and what a performer! This young man was born to entertain. And what an incredible job he does portraying Elvis. He keeps his audience… mesmerized… spellbound… from the moment he enters the stage…to his last song. You just sit there almost unable to believe your eyes. He’s got the looks, the talent, and undoubtedly the moves of the King of rock and roll himself!

I am one of the biggest Elvis fans…there is. I listen to Elvis radio on Sirrus channel 13 daily. I have even been on the Elvis Quiz show at Graceland. That is why I want to nominate Joseph Hall, star of Eras of the King, to win an award this year. Joseph does the best tribute to Elvis that I have ever seen. He does the moves of Elvis to perfection. Each move he does, I have seen Elvis do in his shows. Joseph's voice just keeps getting better and better... I like all the different parts of Elvis's career that he (showcases), but I think he does a tremendous job on his gospel section and the concert years of Elvis. Joseph is a very friendly and all around nice guy…(he) interacts with the audience all through the show. He makes everyone feel good to be there. I would recommend this show highly. It is as close to watching a concert of Elvis that you can get…

He is a remarkable young man and artist who is very friendly and true. He listens when we talk to him after his shows and takes time for everyone who wants to talk to him, get his autograph and picture... He is the best Elvis impersonator we have ever seen…He is electrifying!!!!"

Molly finished up by saying "With that (and you can log onto BransonCritic.com to read the entire host of comments or post your own) I am so very pleased to present this award to Joseph Hall. I have to tell you, we had something unique happen this year on BransonCritic.com that hasn’t happened before to my knowledge. TWO shows received the same amount of votes! Joseph Hall is one of the deserving recipients of the 2010 BransonCritic.com Fans’ Choice Award for Male Performer of the Year! Congratulations Joseph!"

Joseph Hall - A Tribute to Elvis
Americana Theatre

 

I have seen Joseph's show a minimum of twice a week since his opening in this theatre 3-7-11.

YES, he is that good! His right-on-the-money interpretation of Elvis will have you clapping and rockin' and remembering the King, Elvis.

Joseph's show includes 21 songs from rock, to ballads, to gospel. His good looks, voice, movements and every slight mannerism are all Elvis! He appears in a 50's outfit, the famous black leather, and a beautiful jumpsuit.

To see Joseph is to love him. He is personable, thankful, friendly, and loves his fans.

Here are a few of the songs he sings: All Shook Up, Blue Suede Shoes, Don't Be Cruel, Hound Dog, If I can dream, sung with great power and passion, Love Me Tender and Peace in the Valley.

He throws out scented teddy bears while singing Teddy Bear and scented scarves along with kisses on the cheek while singing Return to Sender.

He does great moves and karate while singing Polk Salad Annie. Suspicious Minds, You Gave Me a Mountain, and A Little Less Conservation are crowd pleasers.

There is a lot of humor interspersed and the audience responds with lots of clapping and comments shouted back, all in fun.

Joseph closes his show singing American Trilogy with a backdrop of a huge American flag.

Joseph in not only a wonderful ETA but a great all around entertainer.

Do not miss the best show in Branson.

Joseph had to cancel the Monday 9/26/2011 night show because his wife was having his baby. So he came back on Tuesday afternoon and put on a fabulous show at 2p.m. Even though I'm sure he hadn't had any sleep he was incredible!

He has the looks, moves and personality to be entertainer of the year! He was entertaining, fun and had all the moves of Elvis! My Mother in Law was laughing so hard because I looked like I was seeing the Real Elvis!

Then we got to go up on stage at the break and even though I know he sees thousands of people he made me feel special when I got my picture with him. He seemed sincerely glad that I was having such a wonderful time at his show.

Then he gave out his scarves just as Elvis did at his concerts and I was just as thrilled to get one as if it was Elvis himself giving it to me. His band and back up singers were Awesome also. They interacted with him perfectly.

Then at the end of the incredibly wonderful hour and half show he stayed to sign autographs! Even though I know he wanted to get back to his wife and new baby boy, he stayed until the last fan was gone.

He just seemed really sincere and appreciative that we came to see him and had a good time.

We saw 5 other shows and attractions and although they were all very good, I enjoyed him the most.

I was a fan of the Real Elvis and saw him in Las Vegas.

I am 81 years old and have seen a lot of young men playing Elvis but until I saw Joseph, I was not impressed with them.

Joseph puts his heart into every song, every move and loves his audience.

His personality, his friendly attitude makes me think, this would be like the real
Elvis.

He does so well singing his songs and makes one think they are really hearing
"Elvis."

He has that cute grin, the laugh alone will lighten your heart.

I could go on and on but this is a mighty nice kid besides his talent and he does "Elvis" justice and I have been to see him over and over.

Joe was a headliner for Elvis Explosion in LaCrosse WI. He is a amazing entertainer! He is true to his fans and is very personable to each and everyone. He is blessed not only with talent, but has a very nice family that supports all his talent. With all his fame Joe has remained so level headed and is as genuine as they come! When he performs he makes you feel the love he has for one of the Greatest Legends ever. If Elvis was alive today he would be amazed of all the ETA's talent. From young to old he has fans that are so supportive! I believe that Joe deserves recognition for his hard work an time dedicated to his career as a entertainer! Let's face it, he is Eye Candy! Just what Mrs. O.Osborn stated on America Got Talent...

Joseph Hall does an excellent job with his tribute to the King of Rock 'N Roll!!

His appearance and voice are spot on! His costumes are fabulous and he so enjoys what he is doing!! He loves putting on a good show for his audience and he is so humble about what he does.

The military is honored in every one of his shows and to me that is really special. When Joe sings Elvis' gospel and when he does the American Trilogy it almost brings tears to my eyes.

He is very family oriented and loves the children and the special needs people that come to see his show. I love that about him as I have a special needs niece that he has taken extra time with and it means so very much. Joe will go far as long as he keeps on keeping on!!

He has a gift straight from the Lord above and as long as he acknowledges that there is no stopping him.

GO JOE GO!!!! GTGTG!

Joseph Hall is a fun, dedicated, sincere and caring person that you will ever want to meet met.

Joseph is also a true fan of Elvis and does his tribute to Elvis from his heart. Joseph's shows are never the same. He loves to entertain his audience. He has a feel as to what to do with his shows when he starts and how to give the best show that he can for his people.

At this show, it was his 27th birthday and his dad presented him with a birthday cake on stage and his dad ended up wearing the frosting from the cake. It was a riot and all the folks at the show were able to be a part of the fun.

This is what Joseph likes to do, is the unexpected. Everyone is always waiting for something to laugh at. His Gospel music is intense and very feeling. It makes you sit back and reflect on your own life. You can feel the passion of his songs.

Other songs he sings takes away the years of a person’s life and leaves you tapping your foot or clapping your hands.

His mother and father are a part of the team that makes the whole show and experience work. They are the type of people that make you feel welcomed. No matter how many times you come to the shows.

This award would be very deserving to Joseph. He works hard and is a crowd pleaser to all. People tell us all the time that he makes Elvis proud!! Thank you!

This is the second year I have seen Joseph Hall in Branson MO. I really like the move to the New Americana Theater this year. Joseph has a very talent band with him this year as well as wonderful back up singers. Joseph Hall does an amazing tribute to the King of Rock 'N Roll. Anyone who ever liked Elvis music will love this show. Joseph puts a lot of hard work into each show.

On this day it was extra special because it was Joseph's Birthday. Joseph is supported by a wonderful family and the best part is they are all so nice to the fans. They all go out of their way to make your visit to this show the best Branson has to offer. I love that they offer DVD's of each show to take home and that you can go on stage and have a photo taken also.

My favorite part of the show this year was the 68 comeback part where Joseph sits on the stairs and gets up close and personal with the audience.

I love that young talent like Joseph Hall is coming to Branson and keeping the shows full of excitement. Branson has always been my favorite vacation spot and seeing Joseph Hall will keep me coming back again and again.

Joseph Hall had a wonderful tribute to Elvis.

The show included Elvis music from the earlier days up to his latest. Joseph realistically performed the songs much like Elvis. Some of the songs he did were performed better than Elvis. Joseph also has a unique personality.

He is friendly and very likable. He added some humor to the show also. The band was very good. They were excellent performers. They sounded like they have been playing together for years. The show appealed to audiences of all ages. Elvis songs are timeless.

They are just as inspirational today as they were years ago. Elvis poured his soul into his music. Joseph equally gave a terrific performance.

In some ways, his show surpassed Elvis. The music was performed to perfection. Joseph put his soul into his performance. He had a real feel for the music.

We enjoyed the show very much.

This was the best show that we saw (out of the four we attended) while we were in Branson, MO.

WE MADE THE JOURNEY TO BRANSON TO SEE OUR FAVORITE ETA, JOSEPH HALL, FOR OUT 49TH ANNIVERSARY. WE HAVE FOLLOWED JOSEPH FROM THE BEGINNING OF HIS JOURNEY INTO MAKING THE YOUNGER GENERATIONS APPRECIATE ELVIS PRESLEY AND ALL THE KING DID FOR THE WORLD OF MUSIC.

THE OLDER FOLKS, ME INCLUDED, APPRECIATE ALL HIS EFFORTS AND HIS TALENT MORE THAN HE WILL EVER KNOW. EVERY TIME WE SEE JOSEPH, HE JUST GETS BETTER AND BETTER.

THE RESIDENTS OF BRANSON AND VISITORS A LIKE, ARE LUCKY TO HAVE THIS TALENTED YOUNG MAN ENTERTAINING THEM. WE HOPE JOSEPH, HIS YOUNG FAMILY, AND HIS TEAM, HAVE ONLY THE BEST OF SUCCESS IN HIS VENTURE INTO THE BRANSON AREA.

JOSEPH WILL ALWAYS BE OUR #1 ENTERTAINER!!!

I have been followed Joe since he began and he is very, very talented and a very sweet person.

He is never too good to talk to you.

You’re always important to him.

He will always have a place in my heart.

He is so much like the real Elvis I just can't believe he is not Elvis’ son. HE MOVES LIKE HIM AND HE REALLY SOUNDS JUST LIKE HIM. To me he is Elvis reborn.

I started watching him on Americas Got Talent and voted for him every week. I'm like Sharon Osborne said: ‘He doesn't have to sing- just stand and let me admire him.’

I always try to go to the shows that are close to me in Nebraska. I hope he goes far but never forget his fans. We all love him here in Nebraska.

Joseph Hall is amazing and our whole family of four thinks he is the best entertainer in Branson!!!

My six year old loves to sing and used to perform country music at the Oldfield Opry and now all I can say is that after seeing Joseph all he sings is Elvis at the Opry!

Joseph is my son's hero!

He watches his show's DVD over and over again all day. He begs me to take him to see him. He wants to dress like him and have hair like him. He would rather listen to Joseph than the real Elvis and that goes for me too! I am proud that my son looks up to him!

Joseph is an awesome performer and has the whole Elvis thing down to a 'T'! Right down to Elvis' laugh; he has it perfected. Not only is he a great singer and performer, he also is one of the nicest guys to stand around after the show and talk to every last person, sign autographs and take as many pictures as people want.

We have been to several shows and will go back every chance we get because we love his show!

I'm sure Elvis would be so proud of the tribute he gives!

"Elvis" is alive and singing in Branson, MO and his name is Joseph Hall... a MUST SEE entertainer. He sings, looks, dresses, moves and gestures like the King.

Joseph studies Elvis constantly and he has perfected his performance. Joseph comes out in a 50's outfit singing familiar Elvis songs with shooting lasers.

He is backed up by Tammy and Stephanie, two enthusiastic singer/dancers who could handle a show of their own. Dino, Danny, Gary and Seth comprise the best Branson band. Dino, his drummer, never misses a beat when it comes to accentuating Joseph's every move.

He also sings backup on the gospel song, "Peace in the Valley". You can hear the familiar favorites: "Don't Be Cruel", "Teddy Bear" when he throws out scented bears to the audience, "Love Me Tender", and "Little Less Conservation". Reminiscent of the '68 Comeback Special, Joseph sings "That's All Right Mama" and "Tiger Man" dressed in black leather, sitting on the steps with his band members. "If I Can Dream" is a powerful, heartfelt song that Joseph sings with great passion.

He dons a familiar jumpsuit and sings "Return to Sender" while passing out out scented scarves and kisses on the cheek to thrilled women. Joseph reveals his sense of humor throughout the show. The rockin' "Polk Salad Annie" is a crowd pleaser.

He sings a total of 21 songs and ends with "American Trilogy" with a gigantic American flag in the background. Joseph is not only an excellent "Elvis", he is the nicest, friendliest young man I ever met.

He is eager to greet each person, give autographs and take pictures for all who ask. He placed in the Top 10 on America's Got Talent 2008.

Even if you are not an Elvis fan, you will leave the show a Joseph Hall fan..."I guarantee it!"

This tribute to Elvis Show left this Elvis Fan feeling as though The King was on stage.

JOSEPH HALL brings all the Eras of Elvis as though he was again with us in the flesh

He has the looks, the moves and the connection with the crowd just like Elvis did.

JOSEPH also gives all the Best of the Legacy of Elvis that we so miss.

I will go back many times to be able to experience that awesome feeling that JOSEPH HALL gives to us in memory of Elvis.

The show was great from start to finish. This young man is as close to being Elvis as is humanly possible. The staging and costumes are first rate and absolutely beautiful. Joseph's singing is so perfect, if you close your eyes you would think it was indeed Elvis.

He makes this show so much fun with the interaction he has with the crowd. And the meet and greet after the show with show you what a sincere and dear young man he really is. In fact his whole family is terrific.

My husband and I have been coming to Branson once or twice a year for the last 30 years and never have we enjoyed a show more, he can easily compete with some of the biggest name stars that have appeared in Branson over the years.

THIS IS A GREAT SHOW. THE BAND AND BACK UP SINGERS ARE WONDERFUL. JOSEPH HALL IS LIKE A YOUNG ELVIS WITH THE STAGE PRESENCE OF A MATURE ELVIS. HIS LOOKS AND MOVES ARE GREAT. HIS PERSONALITY IS FUNNY AND KIND. I'VE BEEN AN ELVIS FAN FOR MANY, MANY, MANY YEARS AND HAVE SEEN MANY, MANY, MANY ELVIS PERFORMERS BUT NONE HAVE THE CHARM OF JOSEPH HALL. HIS INTERACTIONS WITH THE FANS, HIS HUMOR AND HIS VOICE MAKE SEEING THE SHOW A TREAT EACH TIME. I'VE BEEN TO 15 + SHOWS AND IT'S NEVER DULL.

HE IS THE MAIN REASON I GO TO BRANSON ABOUT EVERY 2 MONTHS. I SEE HIS SHOW EVERY DAY I'M THERE (2 TO 4 TIMES PER TRIP) AND ALWAYS ENJOY IT.

HIS FAMILY THAT WORKS WITH HIM ARE GREAT ALSO.

A VERY PLEASANT EXPERIENCE ALWAYS.

The best Elvis Tribute Artist I have seen in a long time.

I listed the most recent time I seen him. I seen him last year for my 26th bday last December, back in March on his opening night at the Americana and then again in June while i was vacationing in Branson.

 

I so recommend my friends to his shows if they go to Branson.

Joseph's Hall's Elvis Tribute is by far the best I have ever seen.

He really knows what he is doing when he gets on the stage. His dancing is remarkable, just like the King's. His voice is spectacular, and fits very well to all of the songs his sings.

His tribute really is bringing Elvis Presley into the lives of many. Joseph represents Elvis and his legacy well. Joseph does the tribute totally out of respect to the King of rock and roll, and really shows what Elvis is all about and why is so unforgettable. Joseph's tribute is exhilarating from anywhere in the theater.

His energy is intense, and always performs at the top of his game. Joseph never gives less than 100%. Joseph's interaction with the crowd is amazing, and definitely adds to the experience.

Joseph is a great tribute because he isn't afraid to break character a little and have a ton of fun. His personality will definitely pull you into the show and make it unforgettable.

You will most certainly want to go back and see him again.

Joseph's show is so full of energy, and he sounds and looks so much like Elvis!!

He makes you feel like he is singing just to you.

The theater is wonderful, the lighting and the music can be seen and heard perfectly no matter where you sit. His band and backup singers are the best. Joseph's outfits are perfect, and they fit so good!

Not only does Joseph look and sound like Elvis, but his graciousness, caring, and his love for his fans, and others matches that of Elvis!

I believe Joseph lives his life as Elvis did when he first started his career with a code of ethics that is above and beyond goodness!

He is such a "nice guy!" Joseph's enthusiasm reaches out to each one of his fans.

Joseph takes his time with each fan during the meet and greet, and it does not matter how many pictures you want to take with him, or how long you want to visit with him, he takes the time, and he makes you feel like you know him personally, which most of us do because he lets us into his life.

He is fantastic!!!

I thought the show was fantastic.

Joseph Hall did a awesome job. He is not only a good Elvis Tribute Artist but a great entertainer because he interacts with the audience. He talks to us and jokes. He is very relaxed on stage and has the style that Elvis had and it makes you feel like Elvis is still alive.

I have seen other Elvis Tribute Artists and none compares to what Joseph Hall does. He has the sound and actions of Elvis. I am in awe of what he does. I like the way he recognized all the veterans and then the flag comes down. It gave me chills. I got a lump in my throat. He also ran out to the audience and hugged this girl that has downs syndrome.

Joseph Hall does a lot of charities also. He is a wonderful, sincere person who loves what he does. The band and the backup singers were wonderful. It was the best show I have seen.

Joseph Hall was absolutely super.

I cannot say enough good about him. I have seen a lot of Elvis impersonators but he is by far the best.

His natural talent is over the top and he is so handsome he is beautiful.

He interacts with the audience and is a wonderful showman. He is the sweetest and nicest entertainer I have ever had the pleasure to meet and certainly plan to come back to Branson to see him several more times.

I would have to say that I was an adamant Elvis fan but Joseph has talent of his own, WITH OR WITHOUT ELVIS.

After the show he mingled with the audience and signed autographs and his over arching friendliness in this cruel world we live in today was such a treat.

Thank you, thank you Joseph!!

I have seen Joseph Hall perform in smaller Nebraska venues, but they were nothing compared to the show in Branson!

He's so energetic and funny onstage, and does an AMAZING job of recreating the moves and sound of Elvis Presley.

He's very personable and kind in person, and treats every fan like a friend.

He has such a powerful presence onstage and really seems to love what he's doing.

The year 2011 marks the second year in Branson for Joseph Hall. Joseph is now on the 76 Strip at the New Americana Theatre.

In his show he showcases the early years of Elvis, then to the 68 special era, and then closes with the concert years of Elvis. This is a fantastic show to see, if you want entertainment, or just love Elvis.

He ends the show with "American Trilogy" that is so patriotic it brings tears to your eyes. The crowd always stands as the American flag comes down at the end of the song.

I went on a cruise this year that had Joseph and seven other tribute artists. Joseph was by far the best one. Joseph is the best tribute artist of Elvis that I have ever seen.

I nominate for him to win an award this year, and he gets my vote to win as he did last year. This is a show you will want to see over and over.

Joseph Hall's Rock & Remember is an awesome tribute to Elvis Presley. Joseph has the voice, the looks and the movements of the King of Rock & Roll.

This is very much a tribute show, not making fun of Elvis but making the whole world know what an outstanding person Elvis was. His music will always be appreciated.

Joseph has a real interest in the King of Rock & Roll even though he was born many years after the King died. The show was just awesome, both times we attended. His band members and back up singers add a lot to the show but Joseph could do a very good show without them.

He is that good of an entertainer. He lost the heel to his boot opening night, did not get shook, just joked his way through it and had the crowd in stitches. Joseph makes everyone in the crowd feel special, especially the women.

This is a fast pace show that generally does not leave his breathless. He is in terrifically good physical shape. He performs songs from the early years, the Army years, black leather years and concert years.

His outfits are outstanding. He always has time to sign autographs, pose for pictures etc. His fans mean the world to him.

I would attend his show every day if I was in Branson.

He has come along way in a very few short years and is deserving of all honors he can earn. I generally do not like Elvis Tribute Artists but Joseph has changed my mind about them.

He is the best I have ever seen and probably the best in the world.

The Joseph Hall Rock and Remember Tribute Show was the show that we chose to see for my first trip to Branson. It was a very spectacular show. It was his Grand Opening at the Americana Theatre.

He has the most wonderful voice. He is comical. His band, backup singers, the lights; I couldn't get enough of it all and the show went on.

But the most memorable part of his show was at the end when he did a Tribute to the Service Men and Women. He had me in tears it was so beautiful; the crowd waving their hands in the air while hanging on the hand of his neighbor.

He IS worth every ounce of Glitter and Gold.

I think the best part about the seating was we were late getting our tickets and didn't think we were going to have up close seating. It ended up we had the Best seats in the house. We got to sit at the end of the runway just off to the side. It was better than Front Row!!! I even got a scarf that night!!!

Talking with him after the show was just as amazing as watching him perform. He is such a nice guy. He jokes around with everyone. He does what he loves and he has fun with it. I would see him a hundred times. And besides, he is pretty easy on the eyes!!

Joseph has My VOTE!!!!!

If you are having sad times in your life, go see Joseph Hall and he will bring your spirits up!!!

He truly loves to perform as Elvis Presley!!!!!! It is like you are at an Elvis concert!!!!

His gospel is the best!!!

Whenever we are back in Branson, we will always go to a Joseph Hall show!!!!

My son Craig is mentally disabled, he loves Joseph Hall and Joseph Hall loves him!!

We have seen him 30 plus times!!

Joseph treats him with great respect and many many others see this! It is amazing!!!

You can tell by the pictures!!!

He truly means it and is not putting on an act, he's for real!!!

The Americana theater is wonderful, not a bad seat in the house. The lighting and sets were beautiful. The band was awesome and the 2 women backup singers were very talented.

The star attraction though, was Joseph. His costumes, moves, and fantastic voice made the whole experience incredible. I was so reminded of Elvis when he did the 68 Comeback Special tribute.

Joseph's version of "If I can Dream" was amazing. But the most memorable part of the whole evening was at the end when he sang his American Trilogy. Everyone in the audience was standing and obviously felt the heart of this music.

After the show, at the meet and greet Joseph was the same genuinely nice person I've come to know with arms opened wide for a big hug. Treat yourself and go see the show and stay for the meet and greet too, you'll be so happy you did.

First I’d like to start off by saying Joseph and his family are wonderful. The show is amazing. He makes Branson worth coming to visit. He has a wonderful personality and the closest thing to Elvis you’re ever going to get. It’s great to see he really enjoys his job in keeping Elvis memories alive. We tell all of our family and friends about Joseph and his show. My mom is a huge Elvis fan and it’s worth watching her enjoy him so much.

Let’s not forget how handsome he is and the way he move. In this day and age he is our Elvis and we adore him and his family very much. That’s why we think he should win this contest and we pray that God will bless him, his family and his career will do very well. We can’t wait to see him and his show again…

P.S Love Your #1 fan

What an incredible show reflecting the different era's of Elvis Presley's career.

I first saw this show in June of this year, and have gone back several times since then to see it again. Each time even more impressed with this young mans talent then the time before. Each day there is a different era of Elvis's career shown in the first half of the show with Saturdays show, featuring Elvis gospel songs. The 2nd half is the concert years. Having seen Elvis in concert 3 times in the seventies I knew the very firt show that I saw, that this young man had Elvis's moves down to a T. And that this young man had a good voice. But each time since then, I have been repeatedly impressed with the maturity in his voice- each time being better then the time before. It has kept my full attention from beginning to end each time I have seen it.

At this particular show there was a gentleman there that I was speaking with who had taken Elvis through basic training. I believe he said he was Elvis's drill sergeant. He had asked me if I had seen the show before he saw the show, and if I thought it was a good show, and if Joseph had Elvis's moves. I told him yes that I had, and about having followed Elvis's career from a young age and about having seen him live the times that I had, and that in my opinion his moves were the closest to Elvis moves that I had seen among the Elvis tribute Artist that I had seen. During the break I ask him what he had thought so far. He said he is good, and I tell you what, he has certainly got his moves. That particular day Joseph happen to be doing the GI Blues era so he could not of come at a better time. Joseph came out in an Army uniform with a tank cut out I guess it was in the background, that looked real and, a duffel bag. I saw a glint in the gentleman’s eyes when he did, and a smile cross his face. It was a fantastic show as all of Joseph's shows are. What a great sense of humor this young man has, with a wonderful personality.

For anyone who loved Elvis, this show is a must see. It is located downtown in the older part of Branson at the newly redecorated Owen's Theater. Seating is very comfortable. You will be greeted at the door probably by Kyle Hall who is Joseph's dad. This is a family run show and what wonderful people all of them are. Joseph's mother and sitter are there as well. There is a meet and greet after the show and Joseph is more then happy to meet all of you, pose for pictures, sign autographs, visit with you and get to know you and thank you personally for coming to the show. During the show he comes out in the audience and gives out several scarves giving each lady that receives one a kiss on the cheek as well, and shakes as many of the gentleman’s hands as he can. Also tosses out teddy bears when he sings Teddy Bear. What a fun show and you leave there knowing you have most definitely been entertained. This is a show for all ages. Children love watching Joseph do Elvis's Karate kicks and moves during Polk Salad Annie as much as the rest of the audience. And what an amazing job he does doing it.

Joseph is recognized as one of the Top Elvis Tribute Artist by Elvis Presley Enterprises and was seen on America's got Talent a couple of years ago going to the top ten, and has performed in many, many places since then. Ladies he is very easy on the eyes, looking very much like the young Elvis. And gentleman you can't help but like him and admire his talent. My husband loves him. How fortunate Branson is to have him now in Branson. This is a new show in Branson this year and very deserving of winning an award for a job very well done. I think Elvis would very much have enjoyed seeing his tribute to him. What an outstanding job he does of it. If you loved Elvis, you cannot miss this one.

Joseph Hall's first year in Branson, Missouri has been a busy year for Joseph. Joseph's fan base is growing daily. More and more people are being introduced to this amazing show that he puts on five days a week at the newly remodeled Owen Theatre. The theatre has a cozy feel to it and has very good seating, where you can see good at every seat.

In the five shows he does, each show is different. He does three different sets each show. He has to choose from the real early days of Elvis, the 68 special time, military set, movie set where one of the songs is "Viva Las Vegas," , gospel, and the concert years. He even does different songs in each set too at different times.

Joseph is an outstanding entertainer who puts everything he has got into his show. He should be recognized by an award for his hard work. I know Elvis would be proud of his tribute he does to him. It is an amazing show that I would recommend to all that love Elvis, to go see this show. I nominate Joseph Hall to win an award this year, he sure gets my vote!!!

The Amazing Joseph Hall

What a show, and what a performer! This young man was born to entertain. And what an incredible job he does of portraying Elvis. He keeps his audience both mesmerized and spellbound, from the moment he enters the stage clear through to his last song. You just sit there almost unable to believe your eyes. He has got the looks, the talent, and undoubtedly the moves of the King of rock and roll himself. And he holds that audience in the palm of his hands the entire time he is on that stage- Song after song. He clearly loves what he does and loves his audience.

I have been to the show several times now and my husband and I say every time we go that it was even better then the time before. And yet at the time, you are sitting there each time thinking it does not get any better then this. But his voice just seems to get better every time we go, and those moves have been done to perfection from day one. I have never seen any other ETA do Elvis moves as close to the way that Elvis did them then Joseph does. And he has got a personality that is over the top. Anyone out there who has not seen this show, and loved Elvis, needs to get to Branson as soon as you can, and get downtown to the Owen's theater and find this out for yourself.

This is a new show in Branson this year and well deserving of one of this year’s awards for an outstanding performance. And you need to stay after the show a few minutes and meet this very personable young man. You will be glad you did. The theater has very comfortable seating, and you can see the stage well from any seat in the theater. This is a family run show, and what a wonderful family it is.

You will be made to feel most welcome. And what wonderful memories you will leave there with. And you will know that you were entertained. Joseph says that if he was able to entertain you, and you leave there feeling as if you were entertained, and he was able to bring a smile to your face and you leave there happy, then he feels like he did his job.

This is a show, and a young man, that I hope to be able to see and enjoy for a very long time.

I have know and seen Joseph many times when he was in Nebraska. The young man never stops to amaze me. Joseph is the type of person and entertainer that really loves what he does. He never wants to be referred to as a impostor but a tribute artist to a man who changed the music that we have today. Joseph has worked so hard to get to where he is at now. He wants to be the performer that Elvis would be proud to have someone like Joseph pay tribute to him. Joseph watches each performance he does to see where he can perform better and to get better so the crowd can experience the images of Elvis. Joseph also respects his audience. I saw him give someone with special needs in a wheelchair a scarf and a teddy bear. He came down from the stage and made a special effort to make sure this lady took away something special from the show. That's the kind of person that Joseph is.

I feel that Joseph deserves to be Branson’s performer of the year or any other award there is for him to achieve his first year.

Thank you!
Joyce

I am one of the biggest Elvis fans that there is. I listen to Elvis radio on Sirrus channel 13 daily. I have even been on the Elvis Quiz show at Graceland. That is why I want to nominate Joseph Hall, star of Eras of the King, to win an award this year. Joseph does the best tribute to Elvis that I have ever seen. He does the moves of Elvis to perfection. Each move he does, I have seen Elvis do in his shows. Joseph's voice just keeps getting better and better as his voice matures. He has great interaction with the audience. I like all the different parts of Elvis's career that he does, but I think he does a tremendous job on his gospel section and the concert years of Elvis. Joseph is a very friendly and all around nice guy. I am always shooting Elvis trivia at him after show, and he does an excellent job on the questions. He is very knowledgeable about Elvis. Joseph interacts with the audience all through the show. He makes everyone feel good to be there.

The theatre is a piece of Branson history and has been remodeled nicely. The whole Hall family organization that runs the theatre are very competent in their job to welcome you to the theatre, purchasing tickets, getting you to your seats, sound and lighting are done to perfection. They make you feel right at home in their theatre.

I would recommend this show highly. It is as close to watching a concert of Elvis that you can get. If you are an Elvis fan, this is a show you must see. I vote for Joseph to win an award this year. He is very deserving to win an award his first year in Branson.

Joseph puts on a great show. He is the best Elvis tribute artist I have ever seen.

He does three different eras of Elvis. He gives out teddy bears to the audience and scarf’s and kisses the ladies on the check. He sang my favorite song lead me guide me. It was his birthday and I went up to the stage to wish him happy birthday and he kissed me on the cheek. The ladies go crazy screaming and clapping they love Joseph.

He sounds a lot Elvis and has his moves down so much that u think u are really seeing the king.

I really loved the show and highly recommend everyone go see the show.

My husband, I and friends saw Joe in his first Elvis Tribute Show. At first I thought he was doing pantomime to the music. Then hearing a few off notes realized he was singing.

We have enjoyed Joe every since. We have seen several shows since that first night and always enjoy all of them.

We really like to hear him sing the gospel songs. We listen to Elvis songs on XM radio and hearing Elvis it is like seeing Joe singing these songs he sounds so much like Elvis.

If a person goes to Branson they need to go see a show at Owen's Theater. They will enjoy a night of good music and see a young man enjoying what he is good at. Paying tribute to ERAS OF THE KING.

The setting in the Owen's Theatre is truly amazing and beautiful. When we first walked in Kyle and Gloria Hall (Joseph's Mom and Dad) warmly greeted us. Caroline Hall sold refreshments (she also does the sound system) and Adam Hall showed us to our seats. Although, we had front row seats there didn't appear to be a bad seat in the Theatre. A wonderful family environment! The show started right on time. Joseph appeared on stage in black leather and had the audience going in no time. He is a fabulous entertainer with so much genuine charisma. If you didn't know better you would think Elvis was really in the building. Joseph's moves and voice are just breathtaking. He gets everyone clapping and singing right along with him! The way he sings How Great Thou Art, Peace in the Valley and so many other songs is just phenomenal. During the song Teddy Bear he threw teddy bears out into the audience (we all got so excited). He went down into the audience and gave out silk scarves (which smell wonderful) and kisses. I was lucky enough to get a scarf AND 2 kisses. I accidently dropped my camera when he kissed me and he picked it up and took a picture of the audience. He has a great sense of humor to go along with his good looks and talent. After the fantastic show I was so hyped up and had to stay for the meet and greet even though there was a long line of fans waiting to talk to Joseph. The line went fast and Joseph talked to each person and let them take pictures with him. He also autographed my scarf that smells so good! My Mom was with me and when I introduced her, he said, Hi Mama. It made her feel so good.

If you haven't seen Joseph Hall - Eras of the King, I would highly recommend that you do. I have seen him a few times since then and plan to continue to follow his performances.

He is a tremendous asset to the world of Elvis Tribute Artists.
The closeness of the Hall family makes the Owen's Theatre so enjoyable.

Eras of the King with Joseph Hall is a not-to-miss show!

As Joseph dances and sings, his natural talent brings Elvis to life as few other Elvis Tribute Artists can. The audience can’t help but to be drawn in. Joseph’s performance of Elvis songs from the 1950s, the 1968 Comeback Special (you’ll be whistling out loud when he comes out in that black leather suit!) and the concert years are amazing. He rises far above the rest with his gospel songs, however. Absolutely incredible.

We saw this show three times during our recent trip to Branson, and would have seen it again had the show been playing! Joseph performs different songs at every show, so you don’t see the same show twice. If you have an Elvis favorite, be sure to request it when you arrive at the theater and Joseph just may work it into the show!

The Owens Theater in downtown Branson is very charming. This is a family show, with Joseph’s dad, mom, sister and cousin stepping in to emcee, run the lights, camera and sound system, usher, and do everything else necessary to bring this show to the stage.

I cannot recommend Eras of the King highly enough. You’ll find yourself tapping your feet and hooting a time or two. And you just might find a teddy bear coming your way when Joseph launches into “(Let Me be Your) Teddy Bear.” You are in for a fantastic time!

I liked him because he was real and friendly and he made sure that he looked right at you and acknowledged your presence. He sure put on a wonderful show and made me remember Elvis.

All the workers of the theater (treated you as though) you were one of their family. The one man show was lively. The songs that he chose were all good and made us think back to the years that we enjoyed Elvis. He gave gifts to the people and after he was there to talk with you like he knew you all his life.

Joseph Hall is truly electrifying. He is a true artist. His show in Branson is so good.

I rate it an A+++++.

He makes eye contact with his audience. He comes out into the audience and sings to us! He is genuine and he loves his audience and his fans.
The seating in Owens Theater is great. I loved all his songs, my favorite being "Suspicious minds". My grandchildren, age, 17, 12 and 13 all loved his show.
He is a remarkable young man and artist who is very friendly and true. He listens when we talk to him after his shows and takes time for everyone who wants to talk to him, get his autograph and picture. We have many pictures of him posing with us. He is the best Elvis impersonator we have ever seen. We first saw him in Lincoln, Nebraska. When we went to see him at Owens Theater in Branson he remembered us from Lincoln Nebraska. He was so happy to see us come to Branson to see him! He even remembered our names!

I am writing this review because Joseph Hall is the best male performer show we have ever seen in Branson!! He is electrifying!!!!

Joseph did an exciting, energetic and meaningful tribute to the music, the magic, the life and legacy of Elvis Presley.

I have seen Joseph perform numerous times and each time I am amazed at how he interacts with the audience and makes each show unique. My favorite outfits and sets are the military suit, the peacock suit and, of course, the black leather. After each show, he does a meet and greet. He makes a special effort to let each fan, young or old, know that they are appreciated and offers signatures on keepsakes and to have his picture taken with them.

Joseph is a talented young artist and the Hall family does an outstanding job producing this show and I can't wait to go again.

We went and saw Eras of the King for the first time on 7/5/10.

The show was recommended by the 2 for 1 ticket outlet after telling them that our family all loved Elvis. We went to the show and it was far beyond our expectations!!! Joseph looks, sings, and MOVES just like Elvis. He is the best Elvis Tribute Artist that we have ever seen and we have seen several through the years.

After the show we met Kyle and Gloria (Joseph’s father and mother). They were the nicest people that we met the whole trip. We saw Kyle and Gloria 2 days later eating breakfast and they told us if we wanted to come back Thursday they would give us a great rate for the family. We went back to the show that night and the next night too! A great thing about Josephs show is that he does a different show every night of the week...young Elvis, army Elvis, movie Elvis, gospel Elvis, jumpsuit Elvis. He was soooo good that we even went to Memphis to see him during Elvis Week in August! All we can say is we can't wait for the opportunity to see him again.

WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL!!! 8-)

If you love Elvis, you will love Joseph Hall.

I have been to Branson 6 times since they opened the newly remodeled Owens Theatre in Downtown Branson in March. Joseph puts on a fabulous show. He has the voice, moves, charisma and the looks. Boy does he have the look!! The ladies adore him. He changes each set so you never see the same set twice. Joseph puts his heart into each performance. You may get a scarf, teddy bear, Hawaiian lei and a hug and a kiss at each show. You will love his "secret cologne". After each show, he has a meet and greet. He will sign anything you want signed and if you don't have anything to sign, he will meet and greet you and give you that special hug. When you leave the theatre, you feel so happy and loved by Joseph and the Hall family.

YOU MUST SEE THIS SHOW. JOSEPH IS OUTSTANDING. YOU WILL WANT TO GO BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN.

Joseph Hall puts on the most amazing ETA show I have ever seen.

He is the most humble nicest person also. Joseph looks, sounds and moves like the original king of rock and roll. He keeps you rocking from the minute he hits the stage till the curtain comes down for the final time.

Then he goes out to sign autographs at his meet and greet where he spends quality time with each and every fan. Posing with the fans for pictures and being his polite and humble self. Hard to believe he has only been doing this for four years.

We have had a wonderful time going to as many shows as possible in many states.

We love you Joseph.

Joseph Hall," Eras of the King". This is a show I highly recommend that anyone who loved, and followed Elvis's career go down town to the Owen's Theater, and check out this show. I was able to see Elvis live three times in the 1970's before his untimely death, and what a performer he was. His memory as we all know lives on though the music he left us, and the many tribute artists we have had since Elvis's death. Some good and some not so good.

This particular young man though young, does an outstanding job of paying tribute to Elvis. He is an incredibly talented young man, very personable, with a great personality, with a wonderful sense of humor. He has got the look, and charisma that Elvis had, that drew people to him like a magnet. The show kept me interested from start to finish. I have seen no other ETA personally, that does Elvis's moves like this young man does. He does them to perfection! . There is one move I have seen no one else do exactly as Elvis did it, other then this young man. I am of course talking about Joseph Hall from" America's Got Talent". I can only imagine how good this young man will be, in a few more years.

He has only been doing this a few years but my.... goodness, what a talented young man. Each day he does a different era of Elvis's career. So" Eras of the King" is a very fitting name for the show. I saw the show twice this week, the 28th and 29th. And also about 3 weeks ago for the first time. I hope to see this show many more times.

The theater is located downtown in the newly re-done Owen's Theater. What a wonderful person Joseph is personally, as well as his entire family. His father Kyle Hall, manages his career, and does the announcing for the show, as well as various other things. His mother and brother work in the theater as well. Sometimes his sister is there also. What a wonderful family this is. It was clear to me that this young man was brought up well. Joseph loves what he does. And very much loves his fans and it certainly shows. He looks very much like Elvis did when he first started out in his career. He is a very handsome young man. Extremely likeable.

This was a very entertaining show. I would like to see this show be nominated for best new show. It was very well done. The seating in the theater was comfortable, and we were all made to feel very welcome. I loved this show, and thought Joseph did an outstanding Job as a tribute artist. It was great to see an ETA that performed different eras of Elvis's career. The show begins with his earlier years and ends with the later years. He was dressed differently, depending on what era he was doing, and what type of song he was singing. His voice was good, with good range in his voice, and he had a great interaction with his audience throughout the show.

My husband loved this young man as well. We can hardly wait to come back and see this show again.

I highly recommend it.

I would like to write a review on a new show that has come to Branson this year. The new entertainer, who is the star of the show, is Joseph Hall. Joseph does a tribute to Elvis Presley in all eras of his career. This show is located in the historic Owens Theatre in downtown Branson, and has been remodeled. It is a small theatre, so every seat is an excellent choice. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a good selection of merchandise to buy.

Joseph does a tremendous job as a tribute to Elvis. He does a remarkable job, and does the moves of Elvis, the best I have ever seen. He even does facial expressions that a true Elvis fan will pick up immediately. Joseph has the look and voice that make him a unique tribute artist to do Elvis Presley. The music is very good. Joseph does some outstanding dance moves. He puts a lot of energy into his show. Joseph comes off the stage several times during the show, and interacts with the audience all through the show. While he is singing "I Want to be Your Teddy Bear" he throws teddy bears into the audience. In the second half, he gives out 10 to 15 scarves. He has three different sections to his show, and he has five shows a week, and each show is different. The last section, the concert years is my favorite, when he comes out in the jumpsuit and does the later years of Elvis songs.

I vote for Joseph Hall to win an award this year. It is his first year in Branson, and should definitely be recognized for his hard work and dedication. I highly recommend this show to everyone, and especially if you are an Elvis fan, you will be amazed at Joseph's talent in presenting this show. It is an hour and one-half show of pure entertainment.

I believe that Joseph Hall's show Eras of the King is the best in Branson because Joseph brings so much to the stage. He is full of energy and is always ready to do his best. Joseph is a great Elvis Tribute Artist, he sings the songs with emotion and he has a wonderful voice. His dancing is great and so full of energy, and he definitely has Elvis's sex appeal. Joseph definitely knows how to make the crowd scream and get on their feet.

Joseph's whole business is family owned. His father is his manager, his sister runs the sound, his brother does the spotlight work, and his mother works the front desk and does the backstage preparation. I think that having his family surround him keeps his grounded and definitely happier. Joseph never forgets where he came from, and that’s one thing I love about him. He never gets cocky and full of himself, and he always remembers to thank his fans and everyone that helped him make his dream come true. He always takes the time to visit with his fans, sign autographs, and take pictures.

Joseph Hall and his entire family are all very good people. They love to talk and meet with everyone that comes to the theater. They all have such positive attitudes and are always happy. I think Joseph Hall is a great candidate to win Best in Branson because his show is very impressive. He is young, happy, and ready to be his best. He was on America's Got Talent; he headlined 2007 Elvis Cruise, and has been recognized by Elvis Presley Enterprises. Joseph Hall's show Eras of the King is really something to see.

First of all, Owens Theatre was built in 1935, the same year Elvis Presley was born, and has undergone a complete renovation inside and out, very nice, seating over Two Hundred there is not a bad seat in the house!

Being HUGE Elvis fans, my wife and I along with Joseph Hall's large and ever growing fan base, started attending every show we could in Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa, from the moment we "discovered" him singing love me tender on KFOR radio in Lincoln, Ne. one morning. This Show in Branson features 90 minutes of the "KING" from his early "hound dog" years to his 1968 comeback special, and ending with the Las Vegas period. Joseph Hall is the BEST tribute artist we have seen! His authentic wardrobe-jumpsuits are period correct and beautiful. The sound system and lighting is state of the art, and perfectly showcases Joseph's immense talent. When he does select Gospel songs, it truly is a special performance!

So if you are an Elvis fan, it has to be on your must see list! And even if your not, we think Joseph has the talent to change your mind! It is a family friendly show- young ones are mesmerized by Joseph’s costumes and his interaction with the audience. The meet-n-greet after the show reveals just how nice, humble and thankful Joseph and the entire Hall family are.

My Husband and I came to Branson on our honeymoon for the first time. We were a little intimidated by how many shows there were. My husband recognized a guy from America's Got Talent on a billboard and we thought what the hay. We went to a 2pm show and WOW!!!!! What an amazing man. He looked and sounded just like Elvis himself!!! We had no clue this was his first year in Branson. He is such a natural. Unlike some of the other impersonators I have seen, he can fit into all the ages of Elvis. 5o's, Army, and even the 70's. After the show we got to meet him and he was so humble and very much himself. He left Elvis on the stage and we were introduced to Joseph Hall. My husband I and I were so impressed!! We will definitely be back to see Joseph!!!

Joseph's show was fabulous!

I have been a fan of Joseph's for the past three years. Joseph's performances are full of energy, and he makes each member of the audience feel as he is singing just to them. Joseph and his team is so generous; when you meet them they make you feel like part of their family. Joseph not only looks and has Elvis' moves, but he has Elvis' sincere charm; he is so nice. I have known Joseph to stay after a show for over 500 fans for the "Meet and Greet," pose for pictures, and visit with each fan making them feel like he is there just for each of them personally; all of this after being on the road for four days straight playing at least four, two to three hour shows. He is such a trooper!

Joseph is my number one entertainer. He has brought so much to the lives of his fans, and Joseph deserves to know how special he is. Joseph Hall is the Best of Branson!

Joseph Hall is one of the BEST Elvis ETV's ever. I have been to numerous Elvis contests and seen lots of entertainers singing Elvis songs but if you shut you eyes when Joseph is singing, you would swear it was Elvis himself. And Joseph is very easy on the eyes to look at, so handsome and has all of Elvis's moves down to the t. He has so much energy and talent words cannot adequately describe him. I have seen his performances also numerous times and always love every one. Besides all that, he is just a down right NICE young man and has a bright future in entertainment in Branson. Everyone just needs to know about him.

As part of a bus trip I had scheduled back in February 2010, we had a stop in Branson to see the Joseph Hall Eras of the King show at the Owens theater. I was interested in the show because I had seen Joseph Hall on America's Got Talent and thought he was a very talented ETA (Elvis Tribute Artist). I have been a fan of Elvis's music all my life but had never seen an ETA that I thought could measure up to the "King". We had tickets for the morning show on Wed. Feb.24th.


My friend forgot her contacts so we sat in the front row, something I wasn't too thrilled about at the time. WOW was I mistaken! From the moment Joseph came out on that stage and sang his first song, I have been a fan. He has it all; a beautiful voice, fantastic looks, exciting moves, and an audience connection that would rival Elvis. He is also a very nice person and his family who helps with the show are super people. It is the "American Dream" coming true. Since that time I take every opportunity I can to see Joseph's show.

In July my cousin from Houston and I met in Branson and attended the Eras of the King show and yes sat in the front row. (Thanks Kyle) We had such a great time we have planned another trip to Branson in November for a week this time and another cousin from Houston will join us then.

You can bet we will be at the Eras of The King show having the time of our lives!

Eras of The King (Joseph Hall)
Owens Theatre

When they opened the theatre in Feb I knew it was a dream comes true for Joseph and his family. I had met Joseph in 2007 during Elvis Week. He was new to the Elvis Tribute Artist world. Being around the ETA world for many years, I seen something in this young man that captured my heart. His likeness to Elvis carries on way beyond the looks. He is humble, charming and as down to earth as was Elvis.

I never would have thought that wonderful day in Memphis a year and half later I would be asked by him and his wonderful family to head up his fan club or to be apart of the team for a Star in Branson.

I had seen the theatre before the renovation and thought Oh my, what have they done! Well when I walked through that door Feb 1st and seen what all had been done I was more then amazed. Many long hours went into bringing this theatre back to life.

The first night Joseph opened to a group of fans that was bused in from NE. What a performance! My heart went to my throat when Joseph walked out on that stage...I knew that minute that stage was his home and this would be someday Branson MO number 1 show. You will find no better tribute to the King of Rock and Roll and I say "Tribute" The "secret" to that is in the show so can't tell. But whether or not you are a huge Elvis fan you will love this show!! He captures the hearts of people of all ages.

Five days a week you can see this show and never see the same show. He performs all the ERA'S of Elvis from the early year’s right to the end of the concert years. Sat night he does the gospel set. It gives you chills as gospel was the heart and soul of Elvis. ERA'S Of the King is the only show where I feel every emotion.

We all know in life it is about walking through that door at the right time. Joseph and his family opening that theatre was their right time and it couldn't happen to a nicer family I am blessed to know them. If you are taking a trip to Branson be sure and see this show. It will be you walking through the door at the right time to see the best show in Branson!

This was Joseph Hall's first performance in Branson in the newly renovated Buck Owens theatre and it was superb. His voice was outstanding as was the sound, the lighting, the costumes, and the renovated theatre. Joseph Hall does the best tribute to Elvis Presley that I have ever seen. His voice, movements, costumes, and appearance so very closely resemble Elvis that it's almost eerie. His show was longer than I had expected which was great and he took the time to visit with the audience. And, his voice was absolutely wonderful. He took only two very short breaks and that was to change costumes. He sang a wide variety of songs which certainly showed his great versatility and showmanship. I am looking forward to returning to see another show very soon and I would highly recommend everyone to see a Joseph Hall show. Even if you are not an Elvis fan, Joseph has an outstanding voice and everyone would enjoy hearing and seeing him.

The theatre is great. It provides the opportunity for everyone in the audience to feel up close to the performance due to its size. Also, the location is great. It's nice to get that old town feel.

It was a wonderful experience and I will definitely return to Branson for another Joseph Hall Show.

Joseph Hall! What can I say? He is not only a wonderful performer, but a very "Special" young man. I have been following him and going to as many shows as possible ever since I saw him on America's Got Talent. He is very "Special" to our disabled son Craig!! It is not a show on Joseph's part, he and Craig have formed a very "Special" friendship, which I think will last a lifetime!

We are planning a trip to Branson October 22nd- 25th.We will spend most of our time at the Owen's Theater because of Joseph's talent as an Elvis Tribute Artist!

He has the looks, the moves everything about Elvis that is action packed entertainment for 90 minutes!!

We would love to see him perform on and on!! We never get bored or tired of listening to him!!!

We wish him the best of luck in the wonderful entertainment city of Branson Missouri!!!

I saw Joseph at his opening at the new Owens Theatre.

His show was all I had anticipated and then some. He makes each and every person in the audience feel like they are the most important person in the building. I have followed Joseph for almost four years now and he has never changed in this attitude. I have seen several ETA's only none have the charisma that Joseph has. Joseph takes such pride in his performances and it comes through loud and clear. I have seen Elvis several times in the 50's and 60's and Joseph has that same charisma that the King had. We as fans all love him.
