Elvis Presley

Anybody ever seen him live?

yes

Murphy Center in Murfreesboro. I was young and did not understand all the fuss

He’s still alive man

Saw Graceland from the gate at 12 yrs. old. Family was on vacation but no Elvis in site.

No.

yes, in Memphis when I was a kid at the gates of Graceland my godfather was an executive for Price Waterhouse and had to stop there to get some docs. The Colonel and Elvis road a golf cart down to the gate.



I was 5 years old so I was clueless as to who or what EP was.

houston rodeo

I saw him at QuikTrip a few years ago.

That's him !!!!

I got on an elevator in Las Vegas , I was surrounded by Elvis's. Old ones . young ones , fat ones , skinny ones, seem there was a convention
of Elvis at the hotel.

Days before cell phone , no picture.

Mo

He played the Greenville Municipal Auditorium (Greenville, TX) in 1954 and that's what they still talk about to this day.

Yes. 1974 I believe. Mid-South Coliseum in Memphis. Went with my mom, stepdad, and sister. Spent the day at Libertyland then the concert that night. Stepdad was a truck driver and had bought me a “Peterbilt” cap earlier that day. I left it in the seat at the concert and was terribly upset.

heard he was at dereks yesterday slammin nattys and tellin tales

Anyone remember a song from the 80's about seeing Elvis at the Hulen Mall?

My older sister was at his house when he died! They had just showed up at Graceland when the ambulance arrived, saw a body wheeled out on a gurney, and drive off with no sirens, and then heard on the news later he had died. She was like 13 years old and called home to tell us.

Last night, I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter, that looks like Elvis...

If you don't mind me asking, I'm assuming she was on the outside of the gate? If not, did she know him?

Yes they were there fixing to take a tour, she didn't know him

I saw him and JFK a while back in a nursing home!

My Mom and Pops went to school with several of his cousins(They were raised in the area-Memphis/West Memphis)

Dad was a big fan. Saw him in Abilene. He also pumped gas for Johnny Cash.

always heard he spent some time drinking at the old hotel in euless off hwy 10 and 157.

Seen him in mach 1977 at the monroe civic center in La i can still hear his intro had 9th row seats and went to stage to take a pic and was escorted back to my seat by monroes finest amd remember hearing "Elvis has left the building". Have an aunt who has one of his scarfs off his neck.
Same aunts husband produced an elvis impersonater and toured Mississippi and surrounding states and did a show in monroe and was awokenwed bout 2am by my mom who invited him and the band over for breakfast im like wtf is yhe wafflehouse closed or something. His name was tony mcgill he passed sometime around 2012 or so i think.he was pretty good

Had a chance to see him at West Texas Fair in Abilene in the early 70's, I was on the school bus waiting for all the other kids to get back from watching him.. I thought he was kinda gay back then. Never cared for his music. If I had another chance to see him now, I'd still be on the bus.

I got him locked up in a safety depost box , well a autographed picture of him from 1955 when he was in Brownwood. Also got Wanda Jackson autograph on it too.

Green Oaks hotel and the Caravan, circa funkytown

When Elvis died in 1977, there were 170 people world wide impersonating him. By the year 2000, there were 85,000 Elvis impersonators. At that rate, the number of Elvis impersonators will exceed the predicted world population in the year 2043.

I was at his house the day he died............

I saw him in the Astrodome at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in 1974. I was never a big fan but he put on a hell of a show.

Almost. We were in Memphis just after He died and cars near Graceland reached for miles on Elvis Presley Blvd. People in the street next to their cars weeping. It was a spectacle.

He was the GOAT

There are some really good documentaries about him from his old original bodyguards ("Memphis Mafia").. At once he was probably the best entertainer in the world, but over time all the pills and the nightlife took it's toll on him. He was a character, no doubt.

Yes

Yes in 76. I was 16 and they dragged my [censored] there. Seats were on row S on the floor.
Remember it like it was yesterday

I've seen him about a thousand times at Adair's

We toured Graceland years ago. The most interesting thing to me were his guitars and handguns and his shooting range in his back yard. I want a shooting range in my back yard.

yea

why did they all like
The Green Oaks Hotel

Elvis - Zeppelin

Place was swank back then, and was notorious for turning a blind eye.

Pretty sure Elvis installed our pool hand rail.

Saw him in 1974 and 1974 at Fort Worth Convention Center. To this day, no other show compares to the show he put on. My mom saw him 1 more time than I did. He pulled up beside her at a red light in Fort Worth and flirted with her in 1957. My mom was a beauty.

Born and live two miles from his birthplace. My dad went to school with him before they moved to Memphis. He used to visit the teachers at our grade school. The whole school would be in a buzz. He'd make his rounds to see them all.

Have always been a EP fan. Never got see him but I was 10 years old when he died. Watched his concerts and movies on TV. His voice is one of a kind and the music timeless.

Went to Graceland. His aunt was still alive and living there at the time.

The day he died I was cutting silage on a 40-20 John Deere. My dad had just bought a radio that mounted on the fender. One of those you could hear two miles away but could barely hear it on the tractor.
