hard to believe that it's been 30 years since Elvis died on August 16, 1977.

RIP, and don't worry : you're still The King.

i find a lot of similarities with axl, the comeback, the pleasure to play & sense
of humour he has now, vegas of course, even in the clothes (or the big rings)...

even the piano sometimes  :hihi:

Hey Den! I started a thread earlier about Elvis' 30 year anniversary in Bad Obsession. It is called 16th August 1977 - 16th August 2007.

Do we need a merge?

And yes, Axl does do a very good Elvis in the Yesterdays film clip. Check out the microphone work!

This is weird.

see,  he was a slob, i can have some respect for what he did in his earlier career,   but he went downhill fast, he was eating like crazy, popping pills like crazy.  no one cared about elvis in 1977, all i was saying it would have been interesting if he did'nt die that day.

no one cared about elvis in 1977,

If I remember correctly, most of his dates sold out on that tour.
