MEMORIES WITH ELVIS THE WEEK UP SEPT14TH 1970 WAS FULL OF ELVIS NEWS MOBILE WAS ON HIS TOUR AFTER A TEN-YEAR HIATUS FROM CONCERTS . THE MOBILE CIVIC CENTERS MANAGER, BUDDY CLEWIS WAS GOOD FRIENDS WITH ELVIS, S MANAGER, COL TOM PARKER PARKER WAS NEVER IN THE AN TOOK THE TITLE FOR SHOW. HE HAD BEEN A CIRCUS BARKER AT THE TIME BUDDY CLEWIS WAS INVOLVED WITH LOCAL VENUES IN THE SOUTH THEIR FRIENDSHIP LEADS UP ELVIS APPEARING 3 TIMES IN MOBILE. LAST TIME IN JUNE 1977, 2 MONTHS PRIOR ELVIS DEATH MY FUTURE WIFE WORKED AT A BANK IN DOWN TOWN MOBILE AND WAS GOOD FRIENS WITH A LADY THAT WAS ON THE BOARD OF MANAGEMENT FOR THE CIVIC CENTER, SO WE GOT SUPER GOOD TICKETS TO 1ST 2 CONCERTS. WE DIDN'T GO TO THE LAST ONE DUE TO MY BEING BORN 1 MONTH PRIOR IN MAY 1977 AS U CAN SEE BY THE TICKET THE WAS CHEAP BY TODAY'S SEE SOME OF THE GARBAGE THEY MUSIC OR SINGING THE FIRST SHOWS TICKETS ALLOWED UP T O BE 25 FEET FROM THE STAGE. OH, AND NOT SECURITY GUARDS FOLKS THEN CONDUCTED THEMSELVES LIKE THEY HAD BEEN RAISED. UN HEARD OF TODAY I MADE SOME PHOTOS. SADLY ALL WERE LOST IN THE DIVORCE. AS WERE MANY 00S PICTURES I TOOK AT NASCAR RACES IN THE 80S N 90.    Civitates meridienses iterum orientur," "The southern states will rise again." |
