Speaking of twins, Elvis was a twin, his brother died at birth I believe or sometimes right after birth. I love Elvis so much strange thing is he died in 77 I was born in 79, my grandma thinks I am nuts. I have been to Graceland 15 times. I collect anything and everything elvis, I have about 50 LP's never opened, dolls, bedroom set, posters (life size), concert tickets one never used the other used ect. My step grandma was in the army with him, I have a few pictures of him and her together as well, she was some type of nurse. Sad thing is his daughter looks just like him, she should have been a man :0) We have a guy from Louisiana that does a look-a-like of Elvis his name is Brandon Bennett, he is awsome. Here is the link to one of his sites. http://www.elvismyway.com/

here is a pic of Brandon (so dreamy):icon_love :icon_love :icon_love :icon_love

it might be harder to find since it wasn't a huge hit but it's a trippy movie.

I saw Elvis in concert in Ft. Worth, Texas when I was a lil girl. Went with my family. I remember he was wearing one of those white, flashy outfits but that's about it. I remember the day he died...remember hearing them announce it on the radio.

Hey Liz, you were born in '83??? My son was born in '83!

I saw Elvis in Concert too...back in the early 70's at the Hilton International Hotel in Vegas - he looked his best - he even had little Lisa Marie up on stage to introduce her to the audience - she couldn't have been no more than 4-5 yrs. old...it was a great show...had tickets for his last performance here on Long Island back in 1977, too bad he didn't make it....

my mom and grandma went to a few concerts of his and they had planned on going when he came to chicago again but of course he didn't make it.

my grandma had elvis stuff everywhere. we keep one of her elvis busts up and a picture she had in our basement up as a tribute to gram. she had moved to fla so she took alot of it with her that mycousins and aunt pilfered so we don't have it anymore. but what we do have we keep around.

I gotta watch part 2 tomorrow night - its gonna interfer w/American Idol, I'm going to have to be doing some heavy flipping back & forth....

i wonder if he would still be a king if he had lived and would have died from old age or something?
