Photos: James Kruk and the The Big Boss Men Do Elvis at the Santee Summer Concert Series

Come down to the free Santee Summer Concert at Town Center Park at 6:30 p.m. Thursday.

Santee got down like a hound dog with Elvis tribute artist James Kruk and the The Big Boss Men at the Santee Summer Concert Series on Thursday evening.

Plenty of Elvis-inclined attendees wore fake sideburns, wigs and swung their hips until the sun went down.

Santee's newest, and only, theater production company, Off Broadway Live, played the opening set of the concert with a crowd sing along of pop hits.

The free Summer Concert performances take place Thursdays from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Town Center Park East stage (550 Park Center Drive)- seven more shows to go!

Food trucks this week included Two for the Road, Dang Brother Pizza, Ms. Patty Melt, and the Rise City Church Ice Cream Truck.
