fletch:
Memphis is close to being a sellout. There may be less than 100 tickets left if that. Gonna be a Macca party on Beale Street!
wish I was going... ops:
-
you should try and get here harley. It is gonna be one massive party!
-
I see the National Weather service has a flood advisory out for the Memphis area through this weekend. For those of you who are local what does the situation look like leading up to next weekend?
-
bernie, I wouldnt worry about flooding. We had a record amount of rain two years ago that flooded Riverside Drive but nothing that bad is forecast. Long range (week long) weather forecast looks nice here for concert weekend.

It was closed down yesterday. Waiting to hear from Jeff regarding another venue.

I was out of town during the ticket sales and also waiting to see if Atlanta might be added to the tour but it has been passed by, at least for the summer. Thinking about going to Memphis, especially after lucking up on a hotel room in walking distance. At this point, that is harder than getting a ticket on stubhub. Anyone think Paul is likely to include an Elvis song in the city of Graceland and Sun Studios? Something like " That's Alright Mama" that plays when you got on the Sun Studios site would be a nice addition.

Thanks, Fletch, hope I can make it. Got a sick family member (nothing serious, not the hospital) so have to see how it goes in terms of getting away. Memphis would be a great place to see him, all that music heritage.

Sounds good! Now we can get back to worrying about how his voice will hold up with the 2 back to backs this week!

Hi all! To those that are going, it has been suggested and is now floating on Facebook that during the last verse of My Valentine (what if rains...) that we all make the heart signal with your hands. Hopefully if a good lot of us do it, it will be contagious and others will follow along. Some are making notes to pass out and spread the word. Please be a good sport and join along; pass it along to your peeps in your row and around. Cheers!

I still think he is going to do Blue Suede Shoes..he did it the first two nights in Sound check, I think . I say he adds it....Elvis and Carl Perkins...he was a Perkins fan and friend.
-
How about Heartbreak Hotel????? What would really be bizarre...the Elvis tribute song Name and Address off London Town.

This is my vote and for the same reasons!

Blue Suede Shoes would be a nice tribute for EP and Carl Perkins. Especially in the birthplace of Rock Memphis.
