    I love Elvis’ family, and how they are sharing these wonderful stories of Elvis Presley, thank you so much. The closest we can get to Elvis’ private bedroom is from the movie, “This is Elvis” you can see his room at the very beginning. We need to continue Elvis’ legacy, thank you to his beautiful family for doing this. I will love Elvis till my end, I miss him dearly.

    Thanks again for sharing! Love hearing your stories. When I was 7, I heard Elvis for the first time. My mother had a couple of his records in her collection, so naturally, curiosity got the best of me. I've been an Elvis fan since then, 1988. I'm surprised I didn't wear those LPs out. Me and my brother had a guitar we would use as a prop when we would pretend to be music stars. I would always act like I was Elvis when I slipped his records on and had the guitar hanging around my shoulders.

    This is really so funny. Just MUCH better to pretend you were Elvis WHILE AT GRACELAND! As a young girl, myself and several girlfriends would take turns pretending to be ELVIS. I pretended to sing Suspicious Minds for a stage show we put on in the 4th grade! lol. I had two girls dancing behind me.

I also have a few questions danny... how did you all pick up life after elvis died? and have you kept in touch with vernon, mini mea, aunt delta, uncle vester, and the other members of the MM? and how did vernon and you all react when somebody wanted to steal elvis his body? Thank you

    I was 7 when Elvis died. I'm half Yankee and half Rebel I guess. Dad is from Chicago and Mom is from Helena Arkansas. I guess Elvis would go to Helena in the 50's. My aunt went to school with Conway Twitty...H.J. And my Mom was in the same grade Levon Helm. All kinds of stories I remember, like there was a p.o.w. camp in Helena in the 40's.

    He bought the pink Caddy for his mom but she didn’t drive nor have a license to drive. Elvis and Vernon drove the Caddy a lot actually, the vehicle was massive and weighed near 5 tons. Jerry Schilling in an interview described this vehicle, who drove it, etc.

  • @bonniebrown6960
    @bonniebrown6960 6 лет назад +3

    Hahahaha...😂😂😂 y'all are so funny !! Gosh... I know that had to be so much fun growing up at Graceland and pretending to be Elivs ! When I was growing up , my cousin's and I played things like school , secretary , doctor and Airline stuartist . lol ! My uncle Billy " my daddy's brother ", would come up to GA. from Florida were he lived in his big ole camper . We all would get in it and pretend it was an air plane . My 2 boy cousin's sat up front and they were the pilot and co-pilot . My cousin Darlene and I were the Airline stuartist and the rest of the cousin's were the passengers . lol !!! By the way that was me and Darlene's dream was to live together and grow up to be airline stuartist . lol !! We had some good times too , but we never got to play Elivs . But we sure enough played his records all of the time and danced . Y'all , I just comment on Spa Guy's channel . I have a neat idea . I wish they would have a Lottery at least once or twice a year and let fans spend the night at Graceland . They could do a background check and make sure there is plenty of security there with us . I said , " it would be even more cooler to have someone that really knew Elivs and stay with us at Graceland and tell us stories about Elivs while we were there . I know I'm just dreaming , but I still wish I could spend the night there . Thanks​ Danny and Joey for sharing your stories and if your parents have some pictures of y'all dressed up like Elivs ..... I would love to see them !!!

I know it’s not as easy as it appears to turn the videos out often, but I can promise you that they are greatly appreciated. They make my day for sure...any & everything you guys & gal can talk about is very interesting to me. Thanks so much for sharing, grateful from Arkansas! Have a good day 🤗

    Great stories. As kids in Australia, me and the other kids would talk about Elvis and where he lived but you guys lived it. I had no idea what Graceland was as a kid and for some reason I thought he was neighbours with Rod Stewart and Neil Diamond but I would say "when I grow up I'm gonna buy a house next door to Elvis so I can be friends with him." : )

    Would his mother have influenced him more, love you guys you're so genuine

    • @georgerutnam7423
      @georgerutnam7423 6 лет назад +2

      YES I think his mother would have been a great influence. had she lived....the way I see it Elvis was a lonely guy growing up being one child, so he would make friends from school however, sadly for him, most were yes men, and seriously not highly educated. had he had friends like that were smart and educated, Elvis could have made better choices in his life, and possibly lived a full life. In my opinion, I could see he was in a depressive state, having reached all the goals there were no more to reach. Parker should have let him take some time off, whether E like it or not, and got his health back in order, and possibly acted in a dramatic movie or two (like Star is Born), and Parker should have taken him on tour internationally, this would have been anew challenge for Elvis! Sadly this did not happen....but isn't it strange that we are still wishing and wondering about his life after all these years. And reminiscing, the "what if......." stories! I guess that is why we miss him so much. There will be no other! He came unlike a comet and left like one!

      Thats sad... You are Elvis family. I mean you grew up there. You are all such an integral part of his life . if you are being stopped thats really upsetting. I mean priscilla was a part of his life for only a small part. I am tired of listening to her. I think she twists her stories just to keep the money coming in. You guys are rhe real deal.. Love you all from Canada
