Von David Trotter erscheint mit dem Hinweis, dass er Zugriff auf das Archiv des "Elvis Is King"-Fan Clubs hatte, das Buch "200 Elvis Concerts - By The Fans, For The Fans" und dieses wird wie folgt angekündigt:

"A live concert to me is exciting because of all the electricity that is generated in the crowd and on stage. It’s my favourite part of the business - is live concerts”. - Elvis Presley -September 4th 1972.

During the formative years of my Elvis Is King fan club (Founded in 1974), personal friends and fans were traveling across the USA, following Elvis on tour, or attending multiple shows during his Las Vegas Engagements and Lake Tahoe appearances.

They would lovingly and dedicatedly send reports, reviews, and accounts of their adventures seeing Elvis on stage, at hotels, airports or in transport “as it happened”. These thrilling times, linking us to Elvis in a very unique way, were typed up and mailed to me to be shared with members within the pages of my Monthly Magazine / Newsletter.

In celebration of my Fan Club’s 50th Anniversary in 2024, these incredible memories - cherished within the Archives - are shared here collectively for the first time in over five decades.

They are for those old enough to I remember the “glory days”. They are here for the new fans discovering ELVIS. They are here for the generations yet to come, who will find ELVIS long after we all have left the world behind. So “Sit Back and leave the driving to us” as Elvis would often say.

Take a deep breath as the lights dim, the Orchestra begins, and from the wings of the Hilton, and the waiting areas of Coliseum Hallways, as ELVIS comes back to you one last time. “For who knows when we’ll meet again this way?"
