Prince William and Prince Harry at Graceland :cheer: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-26...-Graceland.html

Great news, Brian! B-)

Sad news but he had a long life and was active into his later years and such a lucky man to have witnessed so many greats performing in Vegas.

Sorry you didn't get a definitive verdict on the demo, autochanger.

Wow! Sorry I can't help but would be interesting to find out more about it if anyone can help. Have you tried posting the question on the elvis collectors site as the guys over there have always appeared to be very knowledgeable about anything Elvis? http://elvis-collectors.com/

Great photos and some very lucky girls! Thank you for the link, Brian B-)

Lisa Marie - What I Know About Men!: Yesterday Australia's Sydney Morning Herald published an interview with Lisa Marie Presley "What I Know About Men". In the article she notes....... ... "I was just nine when my father died, but I had a very special relationship with him. He was the most incredible, enigmatic, powerful, dynamic human being I've ever met. As far as men go, he left big shoes to fill. He is still such a presence in popular culture, but I don't find it odd or surreal – it makes me happy, actually. - Most of my memories are of being home with him. Our rooms were on the top floor of Graceland. We would sit in my room and watch TV, and spend a lot of time together upstairs alone. He'd take me on golf-cart rides, or we'd visit my grandfather or the pet store. - My father was very funny, very playful, but he also had a very bad temper. Across the board, he was extreme: either really funny, really playful, or in such a bad mood that people were running for the hills. But he had so many vampires around him, stupid people, and they'd tick him off. He was frustrated sometimes. Like everybody, he was human. - I didn't find it hard to have a normal life. Things weren't quite like they are now in the US, where you're in a fishbowl because of celebrity news sites like TMZ. Back then I felt I had a bit of space, and I could privately make my own mistakes and grow up. - I was comfortable around boys and never found them to be alien at all. But I find men and women different. One thing I will say about men: if they've had a good relationship with their mother, and are close with their mother, they are better partners for women. That is a fact. The best qualities men can have are dedication, loyalty, honesty and refraining from going elsewhere for their needs. - I don't regret any of my marriages. They were all incredible, fun experiences. Some were marriages of whim – I was wild, they were wild, and we did wild things, but I don't regret them. Each one ended for different reasons. Some I wished didn't end the way they did, but they weren't failures; we just weren't partnered right. With Michael Jackson, unfortunately, too much happened, too much got between us. There was a very deep strong love there; intense. But people got in the way, on my end and his end. We had so many people telling us what to do and intercepting and speaking on behalf of the other. Had it been just he and I, towards the end, I don't think we would have divorced. - The title track on my album Storm & Grace is written for my son. It's about the kind of pressures and expectations placed on men. It's about how he's got the biggest heart but he's learnt how to put up a protective shell, which isn't necessarily a good thing. When men get hurt, they get more and more protective and closed off. I'm not sure how we can fix that. I wish there was a way." http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/what-i-kno...l#ixzz2w62vBEEN (News, Source;SMH/ElvisInfoNet)

Elvis' Hillcrest Home Sold Again: Peter Morton, Hard Rock Cafe founder, has on-sold Elvis' LA mansion making a neat $4.7Million profit in under 18 months. Just over a year after he bought Elvis Presley's old Beverly Hills mansion for $9.8 million, Hard Rock Cafe founder Peter Morton has flipped the property for a tidy property, according to real estate blogger The Real Estalker. The home reportedly sold off-the-market to a corporate entity for $14.5 million. Morton was rumored to be tearing down the historic home, but it seems that luckily those plans never panned out. The home, which has four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and spans 5,367 square feet, sold to Morton in December 2012 for significantly less than the initial $13million asking price.

Elvis' American Eagle Cape Fails to Sell: The full-length, bejeweled cape made for Elvis' 1973 Aloha From Hawaii concert - but so heavy that Elvis did NOT wear it - failed to sell at this week's auction that ended yesterday. While bidding on the cape topped $90,000, it fell short of the reserve price set by the seller, according to the Boston-based auction house RR Auctions. The seller and the highest bidder are now trying to negotiate a price. A “reserve price” is the minimum amount the owner of an item up for auction will accept as the winning bid. Reserve prices allow auctioneers to generate interest among bidders by setting lower opening prices than sellers will accept. They are disliked by bidders for obscuring true minimum prices and ruining the chances of winning an auction at a bargain price. The opening price for the cape was $10,000. The reserve price was not disclosed. The cape is heavily inlaid with semi-precious stones arranged in the form of an American eagle. It weighs 12 pounds and proved to be too heavy for Presley to wear. The cape’s weight threatened to pull him over backwards in rehearsal. So the cape’s designer, the renowned costume maker Bill Belew, quickly made the shorter, lighter version of the cape that Presley actually wore during the concert. Note that at Julien's auctions in 2013 it was offered for $130,000 - $140,000! (News, Source;RRAuction/ElvisInfoNet)

Great news, Brian. Looks like ticket sales for this tour have been excellent! Looking forward to the show in May :cheer:

Cheers, Brian. Will give this a watch.

There was a piece on our local news last week about a man who was selling his collection of Elvis records. Didn't catch his name but it probably was this guy. All of the records had never been played and were in pristine condition B-) What about that strand of hair, wonder how much that went for :w00t:
