Tilly, Around 9th November or thereabouts. SONY (UK) are going to give this a big push and are hoping for a Top 10. I hope all Elvis fans buy a few copies of this, especially as it is near Christmas and would make excellent presents. Brian

According to a report on the Web, there will be 5 'new' songs on the October Brazilian Tour of 'Elvis In Concert' including 'Love Me' and 'Little Sister'. However, 'Love Me' was featured on the 2005 European Tour. According to Jack Soden, " currently , the Facebook page Elvis , South America ranks third in the number of international fans , behind only the United Kingdom and Mexico, and this allows us to share the life of Elvis and his legacy with them ." Bearing this in mind, could the concert tour Mexico next? Brian

'Elvis Presley - On Stage' to tour the UK in April / May 2014. This new announced UK tour will be without the original TCB band, but will be joined with all new musicians/singers helping to keep Elvis rocking concert arena's around the country. There is no additional news of whether or not there will be any European tour dates being added? It is not yet known if the new tour will follow the same format as before, or will the new band members be bringing more performances to life by way of 50's TV performances, Movie songs and of course 70's live songs? Whatever the set-list, I'm sure Elvis fans across England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales will be coming out to enjoy the closest thing to experiencing Elvis 'Live'. For past concert tours, EPE and Stig Edgren have booked it into the large arenas. This time around it will play in smaller venues with a larger geographical reach thus giving more fans a chance to see it, especially those who cannot afford to travel or those with medical issues.

Great news. 'Elvis At Stax' has entered the UK Album Chart at 70 for week ending 17th August, 2013 selling some 1,367 units. It was Elvis' 111th Chart album which is a record. Let's hope it has a similar result in the U.S.A. and elsewhere. However, just goes to show how record sales have decreased in recent years. Brian :dance:
