i'm begging for someone out there to reveal the true story about this show---it was booked for one day--but as i recall---and unprecidented thing happened--elvis said or our city fathers at the time kept him for two more shows---i must believe footage is out there somewhere--and factoids as to why approx 17 months later his demise--and on top of all that---his brother came to that very venue---in the basement---i was not at the shows--but i can assure i was among the group in the basement---
I attended one of his three concerts, great show. I think he did one more show later too. EP assoc. has all details online of all his shows and comments.
I can say they were waiting 24 hrs a day for three days to get tickets.
He stayed in my hometown of Bristol, Tn at the Holiday Inn. They sold the items in his room for charity and I have a salad bowl he ate from!
