I'm 60. I took my kids to Graceland when it was a very small enterprise by the family. There's a beauty in small things. My father did business in Las Vegas in the 1950's so we were regular visitors when LV was just a town in the desert with a few neon lights. We all tried to prevent them from blowing up the Sands Hotel to make way for some monstrous eyesore when there was plenty of desert out there to build on. I think King Midas will build his dillusional palaces and find himself exactly like every other aging billionaire (Howard Marshall, Howard Hughes, Hearst) living with people he can't trust who control his life and his money. Some doddering old fool who's only fooling himself and is a big joke to the people he thinks love him. Would have been better if he learned to play the guitar and sing instead of going into the guitar business. I am lucky to have seen Graceland before this idiot ruins it because he can't see the intrinsic value. I'll never go back.

To the fellow who said they should dig Elvis up and put him on display: How can they? We all know that he is alive and well and living with Marilyn Monroe in a crashed B52 bomber, which is sometimes spotted on the moon or under Loch Ness. Another rumour is that he is living in the upstairs locked areas in Graceland but I don't buy that idea - it's just too unbelievable.

Is sad to said but in the vigil the cost was: one dead person. A black point to EPE and company.
I am very worry about this.
And only 75,000 against the 650,000 person that normally visit Graceland.
Elvis Aaron Presley was always a very worry person for the poorest and was the kindest.

Business is Taking Care of Elvis.

The tremendous amount of publicity generated by all the commercial enterprises marketing Elvis related artifacts ensure Elvis Presley's image is never out of the public eye.

His amazingly beautiful exciting and versatile voice ensures he will always be in the public ear too :-)

All we need now is the Elvis Presley International Airport, Memphis, to arrive at on our way to Graceland.

Natalie Wood once said about Elvis "He can sing, but he can’t do much else."

Ladies: You are not Elvis fans that is obivous. I am a 62 year old male. I lost my wife a year ago in July to cancer. We both loved Elvis and saw him live 3 times. We visited Graceland 4 times. I do not recall anyone comparing Elvis to Jesus or God. I have read numerous stories of Elvis donating monies to many different charities Priscilla and Lisa have continued to do this. I seem to recall Lisa helping pack things for Katrina victims. Yes Elvis did make many mistakes in his life WHO HAS NOT? At my wife's funeral all Elvis gosple and hymns were played. If you have any doubt that Elvis was a religious person. Bag church some Sunday Put on gosple or hymns by Elvis. And lets us know if you don't feel God around you. You have a right to remember Graceland any way you want I agree it cost a few bucks. But worth every penny for the memories I have of seeing Elvis Live and visiting Graceland with my Wife. I truly believe Elvis fans will not allow Graceland to change.

People might not want to admit it but Elvis was all about the money, sure he gave most of it awaybut he never disassociated himself from Col Tom Parker who was all about the money. Highest paid entertainer in hollywood ath the time. Elvis was all about the money.

Mr. Elvis Aaron Presley do not need that his fans pay fot to see graceland. He is in the heaven with God. Gracelad was choosing by his vernon, his father and by andreas van kuij, aka col parker.
I hope that the hungry for mony from epe, mrs. beaulieu her daughter have been a failure.
Mr. Elvis Presley is with God he do not need mad visits to graceland or madland.
I hope that EPE will be a failure and Mr. Elvis Presley will be a success.

Imagine if l were to say to anyone that Jesus lives with me!! Most will say that l am a little mental. But say that to anyone that elvis lives with me and they'll say "yes, me too" !!! What a wacko world. elvis is dead and gone, long gone.!!! Although l thought he was a good singer, that is where it ends. Why dont people rely on the real living One!! What can elvis do for you? NOTHING. l am not just after what anyone can do for me, but l idolize my Saviour and Creator. lt is ok to remember him as a singer, and anything more than that is SICK & IDIOTIC. That is what happens when people have no purpose in life , they live in fantasyland. Think how much we can help the poor and needy if instead of spending money to make elvis like a god, they give it to the poor, homeless & hungry. l would not want to say where he is but l know that he lived a life full of mistakes, regrets, sins just like everyone else on this planet except JESUS. Worship a real God.

I don't believe for one minute that Elvis would want this . It all comes down to the almighty dollar and mama gets what mama wants . It will wind up being another never land such a sad way to remember graceland .
