Elvis day!!

August 16th, 2007 at 12:06 pm

Today is the 30th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death. I saw Elvis in person, only once. I still have the ticket stub in my "elvis" bedroom. It was on Feb. 15th, 1977. It was a lucky week for me. I had front row seats.
I also met my dh 3 days later, on Feb. 18th, 1977.
I do have a poem written by Col. Parker and signed drumsticks by Elvis' early drumer, D.J. Fontana!
Guess I will go put on my blue suede shoes and hang out at the Heartbreak Hotel! Thank ya, thank ya very much.

(Oh the poem is signed too)

    I went to Memphis for Elvis Week in 94, I think it was. What an experience! We also drove down to Tupelo to see his (reconstructed, of course) birthplace. The candlelight vigil was nuts, took hours to get to walk past his grave. I can't imagine what a big anniversary year like this is like!

    Good old Elvis. There'll never be another like him.
