Give it a try.

    They do several shows throughout the day. The shows are different, but there's a storyline that runs through them. I don't think I've seen them all.

    Here's the DLR calendar page, which lists times for patades and some shows:

    If it is who I think it is, he plays the sheriff and Sally May at times. He also fills in as lead Hillbilly every week. I think on friday.

    Here he is as Belly Elvis II.
