Elvis' 75th birthday celebration at the Egyptian this weekend


Elvis Presley left the building, cosmically speaking, at the young but bloated age of 42. Had he been an avid jogger and into juice fasts instead of pills, he just may have celebrated his 75th birthday this week. In his absence, Angelenos can gather at the Egyptian for a marathon celebration that includes a quiz game and a double feature of 1957's "Jailhouse Rock" and the documentary "Elvis '56." There also will be karaoke, birthday cake, barbecue and banana-peanut butter pancakes. Oh, and a lot of people wearing open-to-the-navel bespangled jumpsuits. Just a warning.

Egyptian Theatre, 6712 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood; Sunday, Jan. 10, 5:30 p.m.; screenings at 7:30 p.m.; $11
