My daughter and I came to the 11 AM Sunday session, hoping to get in. You folks were so kind and gracious, allowing us in. We are thankful, and it was a pure joy meeting you all. We hope to cross paths again in the future. You all take care, and have a good rest of 2023!

Thank you Smith family for keeping us fans from faraway up to date. ❤🇦🇺
Lol this was great. I wish I could’ve been there! Jo really cracks me up! She just says what the rest of us are thinking! Billy and jo are both amazing human beings. Thank you for doing these videos for us! And of course thank you Danielle who all of this wouldn’t be possible without. People don’t realize how much work she does to do this for us while still working a regular job and taking care of a house and family.
Thank you!!!! -Danielle
Hello to all the Smith family, Thank you all so much for thinking of us who could not be there. It is so kind and generous of you ❤❤❤ I loved to hear about all your stories and your memories. Sending you hugs. Grace and Alain from Canada ❤

Larry likes to hear himself talk about being Elvis best buddy. Larry has told several things about the day Elvis passed. It’s different everytime.
Just wonderful watching the Q&A sessions.
Thank You Danielle for letting us see these!!!
I get a joy from all the EFM videos!!!!
Thank You Danielle for sharing this session of QA
We really enjoyed the Sunday afternoon session
You have a wonderful family.
Arrivederci!
It was a very enjoyable meeting. However, it was hard at times understanding who you were talking about and what was said due to the fact that people were talking over each other. It was a little frustrating because the stories must have been good because of the laughter. I watch all of the EFM video's you post and hopefully you will talk more about the meet up. Love you all and God Bless!
I clicked on CC SUBTITLES and that's how I got to know the questions and answers ❤
Same problem of having trouble clearly hearing.
Me too even the CC subtitle on😞 however I still enjoyed it I just wish that I could have truly heard everything that was said and people's phones going off don't help either. But I am still thankful and thankful for ALL of you for doing this. 💝
I like Mr. Smith.
He has held a marriage together & did his best to pass that on to his children .
He's done this better than many of us.
I love you guys. Grew up with Elvis too. Great people, salt of the earth.
Great questions from the audience thanks Billy jo and Daniela
There are some Charlie Hodge interviews on RUclips that talk about the laughing during Are You Lonesome Tonight. I don't know it that would answer the question, but it did cover some of the antics they were doing on stage that caused some of the laughter.
Hi Jo and Billy.. I saw something posted with Lee Majors just yesterday. He was talking about when he met Elvis. He had a surprise cameo in Clambake and hung out a bit with Elvis and the guys in Vegas. I first knew Lee Majors by way hing the Six Million Dollar Man. I wouldn’t have suspected that they even crossed paths! What is your best memory of that time. Did they do practical jokes together? We’re they still friends when that show was on tv?
I couldn't have cared less about Lee Majors
Thank you for posting this for those of us who couldn't be there. They were really good questions and got done to the nitty gridy in places, really love listening to Billy and Jo, they seem to show respect in some of the questions.
Thank you for your honesty about things we’ve all wondered about. The questions were great. This was better than any book I’ve read. I appreciate your sharing with those of us who couldn’t be there.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was at the last session. Your grandparents are very special ❤️ people. Thank y'all for all the hard you do Danielle to bring them to us. Such a honor to be apart of the Elvis family.
Thank you so much for posting this! I've been checking every day hoping to see a video. Billy and Jo you always bring a smile to me. Can't thank you and Danielle enough!
Learn more about how things really happened . Billy Jo knows the truth!Elvis should have never married . Maybe had he lived a longer life he would have!He loved all his women. But just a few he was in love with, just not enough to want be settle down with!Had Gladys lived may have changed things. Thank you all for sharing your memories with us❤❤❤❤
ELVIS FANS MATTER ❣️❣️
Billy, if you could talk to Elvis one more time, what would you say to him?
Love this. Hope you do more of these. Great to see you both interact with Elvis’s fans. To think how special Elvis still is, 46 years after his death and his fans plus fans that was born 46 years ago still can’t get enough.
Random, but I’ve seen some really beautiful hair dos in the pictures I’ve seen over the years of the girls . Flips, beehives etc . I know a lot of the ladies would just go to the salon and maintain it for a week, but I’m sure someone remembers the beauty tricks of the days , and I would love to hear all about the shopping , makeup/ hair stories and trends !
Thank you! This was so much fun to watch. ♥♥♥
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing. Thank you Billy and Jo
Billy, Jo & Danielle - that so cool Thank you for the great recap of Day 1 , Session 1
Enjoy the videos. Love Danielle's cameo hitting the camera lol. I hope I make it next year.
Love your hair Jo you look great. Keep up the good work I really enjoy your channel 🤗
Love to you all 🇦🇺💕
Really had fun seeing and meeting you all ! 💖 i was there Aug.12th after 1pm . Thanks so much for signing my Book and photos & taking pics with me .All Y'all are so nice 🌟 hope to meet again Somtime.. TCB ⚡️✨️
Sharon
LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!!!
Thank you for sharing 💕
I'm glad Jo made the comment that Elvis seemed happier after Priscilla left, or that's what i understood.
Good answer Patty
@@pattynuzzello9035 lmbo, what "they" actually said was she"Priscilla" hurt his ego, because she left him, and for an ordinary man. You need to LISTEN to this video, where Jo plainly said, that Elvis was more relaxed and he told her "Jo" that things were going to be better after Priscilla left. Actually watched a video of Joe Esposito and he said Elvis's ego was hurt, northing more! Also watched Red West who said Ann Margret almost got Elvis, he married Priscilla because he had to. Billy said in this interview that Elvis was crazy about Ann Margret and she was crazy about him. He wasn't devastated when Priscilla left him, he was too busy with Linda Thompson.
@@pattynuzzello9035 P.S. I'm going to go with what Jo and Billy said about this, since they were there.
Love ❤ Love this great Q&A session!! I really wish I’d have been able to come. Thanks for sharing this with us!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful video! Did I hear you say that Vernon had a daughter Laura with Sandy? Did Vernon leave his estate to Sandy? What was the relationship between Vernon and Priscilla and Lisa after Elvis' death?
Thank you all for sharing some of those are not able to get out and we thank you for That You're a biggest fan, Billy Roy.
Thank y’all bunches. I am almost 60 so that means I have identifying Elvis songs for 59 years.
I really love the stories behind the image he display.
I saw Elvis in 1974. My momma took me.
She said she had as much fun watching me as she was Elvis. She swears I never blinked.
Thank y’all for letting me remember my own times with Elvis.
I always told my mom when I turned 14 I was to date Elvis.
He died 2 months before I turned 14.
enjoyed watching this
Thank you so much for posting this. I would love to be there in person. Maybe one day.
Thank you for all you do for us, i hope i can meet you all next year god bless your great family love you all❤💯🙏⚡️🌹
The gray hair may have been his sideburns because I believe the ambulance driver said the same thing.
Wished you guys would visit Tampa, Fl. Could show you where Col. Tom Parker worked at and meet Rob Sumner. Rob would be shocked. Rob is a Elvis Presley fan.😊
Love the down to earth vibe❤ Sweet people❤
Great video! Love the Smiths❤
Thank you! 🤗
This was Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing this Q&A
Love you all❤️🙏🎶⚡️

QUESTION: Why is Alan Frontas not included in any interviews or documentaries and was he a member of the Memphis Mafia?
I always watched everything I could on the Memphis Mafia as I was curious who was Elvis' closest friends and family.
I hear Alan Frontas' name as an original member (Hope I spelled his name right) but I never see him in anything, I don't even know what he looks like.
Alan was in a lot of the early on set pictures. Yes Alan was Memphis Mafia.I will try to show a picture of him on a video.He was also with Elvis on 68 comeback special! Great guy!
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Thanks for letting me know. I just hear Alan mentioned a lot and I don't know who he is.
I enjoyed my session so much. This one was great too. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing for those of us that couldn’t be there!
I wish the audio was better, sometimes it's impossible to understand what you're saying. What I could make out was very good to hear though, thank you for posting this. Also, the movie never showed Priscilla meeting Gladys. It showed him meeting her when he was in the army, after Gladys died.
These were recorded with my camera from the back of the Q & A sessions.
I’m using what I could get to share with those that couldn’t be there. -Danielle
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 thank you! I just meant I wish I could hear more.
I hate I could not make Elvis week again. Hope to next year, but this is great content to watch from home. Thank you all!
❤❤❤ Bless You
🌹thank you all 🌹
I saw a video from Lee Majors at Elvis week in Memphis. Lee Majors said he believes if Red and Sonny West remained with Elvis, Elvis would not have passed away on August 16th. Lee Majors also said Colonel Parker was behind the firing of Red, Sonny and Dave Hebler. Lee Majors said he is releasing a book soon with his memories meeting Elvis on the Clambake set . Do you agree with this, because I never thought Colonel was behind their firing.
I love this video!
Now that Sofia Coppola seems so proud to promote her movie (I don't understand why) , I would have just one question I wish you will answer to : What did Elvis think about the Francis Ford Coppola's movie : "The Godfather" ?
It sounds like Ginger was bought and well compensated
This is kind of morbid , but the body dehydrates which shows more of the hair that was under the skin which wouldn’t have been dyed . That’s my only explanation to Larry’s story if it was true ?
Also, the ambulance driver said the sideburns were gray and he went through an autopsy.
Yes, unfortunately I have been with too many family members when they have passed away, sick in the hospital hair is normal and after they died I have seen grey, shock and trauma can do this, it even happened to me after my husband unexpectedly died, didn't even realize it until a month later.
Thanks for posting. Watching from Scotland 🏴
Could I make a suggestion? Perhaps using a mic would give better sound and maybe text on the screen showing the question being asked? Thanks
Just click on CC (closed captions) at the bottom of the screen, I had to do that because half the time I couldn't understand the audio. It isn't always accurate though, I guess it's done phonetically, so sometimes the subtitles are really funny because I guess it's digitally produced, for example "Priscilla" becomes "Brazil," and so on. It's still better than nothing.
Hi
I always suspected Jerry Schilling was elevated due to Priscilla
QUESTION….U Billy had a hard time being at Graceland after Elvis died. AND U HAD TO LEAVE, What about Vernon did he also have a hard time being there or and working? Did he continue to work there till he Himself past? What did he think of the Changes?
After death the skin shrinks - it was most likely that although Geller tried to say it was because they were off tour for 6 weeks causing the growth. I'm curious what the autopsy will show in 2027 when it is publicly available. It will be interesting to see if Charlie was right about the 3 prior heart attacks and the bone cancer.
No disrespect love billy and miss jo believe them over anyone
But i also saw an interview with the dr who did autopsy i believe
And he said elvis hair had white roots also
I don't believe alot of what larry gellar says really but the dr said it too
I wish Billy was able to finish his answers.
I agree with you!
He does finish his answers…
He answered all the questions asked.
well, he started answering them. He just didn't finish all of them. @@efmelvisfansmatter1129
Agree. Poor guy 😢
Did Vernon have a girlfriend after he divorced Dee Stanley??
Hey Mr billy an ms joe got a question I had ask Danny but I don’t know if he gets my message never answer them just wondering did they have obituarie books at Elvis funeral an if so do y’all still have y’all’s
QUESTION!- Right now there is a movie being made starring James Dean using Artificial intelligence. What would you think if Elvis was used in good taste to make the movie that he always wanted to star in?
That’s a good question,I don’t know how it would affect me and everyone else.
Poor billy in a room full of cackling hens asking questions every mans wurst nightmare
I wish the sound was better and it ended when Billy was talking and I wanted to hear it. From what Billy said it seems that Elvis was trying so hard to keep Ginger around . Although I am not a fan of hers it seems he was in love. In case of Priscilla she told Barbara Walters that she thought his manager Tom Parker told him he has to get married because she was there so many years. He practically raised her for whatever reason.
These were recorded from the back of the room of the Q & A events.
I tried to film what I could for everyone while still running the event and sessions. I had to cut the videos so I had time to complete the sessions. I’m glad I was able to get what I got on film at all. -Danielle
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129And most of us are very thankful you did this for all the people that couldn't be with you; because of health issues and/or monetary reasons.
I appreciate the time you take to make these videos.
Nothing more could I wish for but to meet you all. That would be a dream come true.
My 13 year old cat is sick and to vet two times this past week. I cried so much because I thought he was going to be put to sleep the same day Elvis died. Thank God he is still here with me. He is my best lil buddy and is always by my side. Just so you know, he loves Elvis's music also. We both cried all the way to the vet and on way home, I played Elvis songs and he got quiet!
Must go back again to vet, but I have to do whatever I can to get him better.
I will always admire Jo for hanging in there and staying with Billy. I know there were difficult times, but so glad they are still together. True Love.
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129I was not criticizing I was just saying I loved to hear his stories and it was hard to hear but it wasn’t a criticism I know you were trying your best
I definitely believe that Elvis loved Ginger and was planning to marry her. Taking the diamond from his own ring for her engagement ring is love right there. JD also is quoted twice as Elvis calling him to his and Ginger’s room before a tour to tell him he wanted JD to be the first to know they were engaged. Jo saying “she didn’t fit in” was disrespectful. Jo is a Linda Thompson lover obviously and interesting that she never says a negative word about Priscilla who was horrible to Elvis. Ginger has been dismissed and maligned a lot but Elvis was going to marry her, no doubt about it. He had told others as well, it was no secret. I’m sure there was jealousy from those in Elvis’ inner circle that influenced crass remarks about Ginger.
@@joannemcclure3546 I don’t think it matters any more I was just asking for clarification Elvis has been gone for 46 years the fact was that they were not married but clearly he loved her but who knows what Elvis would have done he promised marriage to many and never went through with it. God bless his soul he loved women.
23:12 as the Guy who buts in but is ignored, what's the real story ?
Linda Thompson and others have said the car wouldn't start...not that there were no keys to start it.... 🤔 would Elvis really shoot a Car that had no keys ? I'm confused
...
The real story is the story popaw just told in this video.
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Ooooh OK...thank you 😊 x
There were no keys in the car.
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Right... Linda Thompson said he fired in to the car cause it wouldn't start, then it started...but makes more sense he lost his rag cause there were no keys in it and shot it to the car BUT, despite the bullets, still started once he got the keys ! 😊
Ginger surly wasn’t no more of a gold digger than Priscilla that’s for sure!
I like honestly but story when people lagh about not pretty looking lady was very hurtful for maybe her family would be be better if her name was not mentioned but just kept as not known . But truth something hurts .
She was a very pretty lady, and we were not making fun of her,Billy was just aggravating Elvis.
Sorry sound quality is terrible
Why do you care about their divorce decree??? It DID NOT say she couldn’t use Presley
We didn’t say it did.
You don't know that because no one has the complete divorce decree!
@@annd2350yes.. because there are pages MISSING
The copy of divorce papers said Priscilla Beaulieu & Elvis Presley.
I disagree with comments about Ginger.
Please explain?
Ok. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Joanne appears to be a big Ginger fan.
@@trevorthompson330 That’s your assumption, only based on what I said which didn’t lead to my being a “big” fan. I just said I disagreed that’s all. I’m a critical thinker and have read things (not from Ginger) that have prompted my opinion. That’s all.
@@joannemcclure3546 Why don't you just answer the original question on why you disagree? Apparently, you don't think that critically because you didn't answer my original question and focused on me saying you are apparently a big fan, which, obviously you are. lol What do you disagree with?
Didnt Elvis SEE THROUGH PRISCILLA AT ALL THAT SHE USED ELVIS PRESLEY NAME TO GET SO MUCH FAME ATTENTION FAME TO ME SHE SEEMED TO BE MORE FAMOUS OR A WANT BE TO ELVIS NO HELL WAY THERE IS NO ONE LIKE THE REAL DEAL ELVIS PRESLEY
