Yikes! I guess I should have known better......the drinking, the moodiness. I'm a little surprized to hear about the sub-par touring bands. It is an early show, 6 or 7pm, which means pretty much nothing.

Do you think I should start a new thread....Van Morrison tix for sale?

You're so funny, Mr. A.......I know that book well and now that I think of it, it has brought back such sweet memories of reading it to, and then with, my children.

>sigh<

Boy, I miss those days.
Motherhood certainly is bittersweet. I hope I make it without falling apart.

With all due respect to your hubby SP, Im still comtemplating how absolutely bizzare it would be for Elvis (or anyone else for that matter) to be walking around with a false beard for several years, red or otherwise. :wink: No respect for my hubby necessary.

Quite an ugly hat! Yeah, could have been the lighting.

His hair was obviously very dark and turned red at exactly where the...

Old SNL Query

I was watching an old Saturdat Night Live from 1991 with EC as musical guest. He played The Other Side of Summer and So Like Candy w/GE Smith and the SNL band. This was during "the bearded" years, and my question is......well, actually, my husband was watching /me and commented on how blac...

I haven't listened to it in ages but have put it back in my stack of discs that I tote around in the car with me.
When it first came out, though, I listened to it non-stop. It was literally in my player for months.

A few weeks ago I had pre-ordered this DVD thru 101cd.com (thanks to Mr. Foyle) and got an e-mail back saying the transaction couldn't be completed because the item wouldn't be available until October 2005.
Whether that's true or not, I don't know.

The thing that stood out to me was how the fans in line didnt know the words to the songs they sang for the camera. Where did they find these people?

I have a Gateway laptop, and a Gateway desktop and then we also have a Dell.
My son, who goes to art school, has a Mac and he'd like to get a newer one. I guess when you start with one kind, you end up liking it. He wants another Mac. He better get a fucking second job then! :evil:

I'd just like to make these few, quick comments but keep in mind that I did not watch the entire DVD all the way through yet and I was watching it on my laptop, which has terrible sound, but a great picture. I did watch all of EC and Pete's travels and I thought it hilarious. I, too, enjoyed seeing ...

Spent the weekend in Atlantic City to see the show. We had a great time. I was wearing my Brutal Youth t-shirt which prompted some exchanges from some of the other Elvis fans there for the show.
