Happy Birthday to the King!

January 8th, 2012 at 07:39 pm

Today is Elvis' birthday. Every one knows I am a big fan of Elvis.
In my home, I have an Elvis bedroom. It started with I went to an Elvis concert and bought a picture of him. I had it framed. I still have my original ticket stub, plus tickets to his not perfomed next concert.
I have all my old original 45 records still in the jacket sleeves (with his picture on them) plus all of my old albums.
I have the original newspaper from Memphis on the date of his death.
The colonel wrote a poem about him, and I have a signed copy of that poem. I also have his drummers, drumsticks, also signed. (D.J.Fontana)

I even have a framed picture of Elvis shaking hands with President Nixon in 1970. Lots of other stuff in that room, all Elvis! Even in my red corvette, I have a big throw with a picture of Elvis!

    I was only eleven years old when Elvis died. When I heard of his death on the radio I burst into tears and cried the rest of the day on and off..I was so heart-broken. I had an eight track tape I played every night when I got into bed. One of my favorite songs was "Are you Lonely Tonight?". I was in love with Elvis and had plans to marry him someday, although he didn't know it....lol

    I heard on the news that Graceland is doing special birthday tours. Can't believe he would have been 77!

    It's funny I did not hear a thing today about his birthday which is strange. Happy birthday!
