Lamar talks about the gang-ho lifestyle that accompanied him during the Memphis Mafia days. A brief summary of An Uncommon Journey, the forthcoming book by him and Mark Bego about his life with Elvis Presley.
@opencurtin Elvis was in a unique situation: He was a megastar, a unique artists adored as a God would be. The pressure involved, man, even Ringo commented on that aspect of fame: At least we had each other, the Beatles to cope with the pressure, Elvis was alone.
Your the one who is sad just because I made a comment that doesn't fit in to your preferred image of how Elvis really was is your problem ,you just hate the thought of Elvis been a simple minded idiot ,which he must have bee to surround him self with a load of leeches and trailer park trash.
One thing people don't realize is that Elvis sufferred from insomnia, I do too. It sucks. For the last ten years I have been going through it. I don't take medication for it but can now feel its effects. Either way your body eventually gets worn out. I can go and do my 5 hour shifts then come home and get a 2 hr nap. E had exausting schedules, sometimes working 7 days a week, for a month at a time, no break, 2 shows a day. I think the world needs to give him a break!
