There's quite simply just not enough words to even begin to fully express or convey the deep-seated, heartfelt, thankfulness and gratitude to you both for all the brilliance and magic you bring to these truly historical videos. Nevertheless, I truly, deeply, sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your hard work, and for keeping Elvis Presley's memory and legacy alive and strong. I wish you both nothing but the very very best of things in every single way, and hope you'll be able to keep these coming.

The biggest Elvis of them all ♥
This was a great video thank you. Elvis Will always be missed what a talent
Great historical video you guys!
I am from there!! I was only 6 in 1970 so I didn’t get to go to the 1970 concert.
However…I was blessed enough to go in 1975, 1976, & 1977!!!
He was at the Myriad the first two shows & in Norman in 1977.
I just tell people you knew
You were in the presence of someone special!!
WOW Lord , I love the tribute you are doing for The King Elvis and sharing it with his fans. Thank you very much Gentlemen! TCB God bless
Fantastic work again fellas.Regards sent from Manchester England.👍
Your videos are unmissable. Highly professional, historical, and a joy to devout fans. Such a crime these concerts weren't professionally filmed - Elvis was on top form.
Thank you both very much for your labor of love for The One and Only, “King of Rock ‘n Roll” and preserving for all Elvis fans these historic places that he performed and stayed at. So glad to see some have been restored and sadly many have been destroyed. As father and son, you are not only keeping Elvis’s memory alive, you are making memories together. Thank you,thank you very much!! TCB ⚡️🕺👑.
La sua voce scavalchera anche questo millennio .

Oklahoma fan here! I love Elvis and your channel! The first hotel that sat abandoned in OKC is now an apartment building named “The Presley Apartments” due to his stay there. You can even rent the room he is reported to have stayed in.

Excellent job as always
Fantastic looking hotel.Another greatly enjoyable video have a nice tour🐻🤗👍

Hello from England
Enjoyed watching this. What i think about when watching these videos of where ELVIS performed and you have gone back to the Arena and although the name is different its still the same building and still has the same original wooden seating in and the same surroundings within. At least it has not been pulled down which makes me HAPPY
You say it would seat up to 11,000 PEOPLE. and opened in 1965 OH MY The year i was born
In England we did not have any Coliseums, Arena's or Civic Centres that would hold this amount of people. We were around 10-15 years behind USA. The NEC Arena near where i live was opened in 1976 and the capacity was more like 11,000 and now its around 16,000
The hotel - still kept as much original as possible
Timothy McVey OMG 1995 - i remember that watching it ON TV - all those years ago i cannot believe it
You've done a thorough and entertaining job, as usual. Well done! Your editing is great! Thank you for all your work making this. ⚡
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
My friends is a great pleasure to hear a "new" story you have shared with us. That "fact" that happened inside the hotel reminded me of The Shinning. Thank you!
Way cool 👍🏻😎
I've stayed at the Skirvin Hotel (now owned by Hilton) but it was in 2007. I wasn't even born in 1970. This is a really cool and interesting channel.
Thank you!! We hope you'll stick around and check out some of our other videos!!!
@@epbackontour I will!
I was only 5 years old 1970,but in the 1990s I worked security for the circus,ice show and rodeo. I seen Jerry Reed,Merl Haggard and many others during the rodeo. I give Gunther Gable Williams a cigarette when he was fixing go out with King Tusk an elephant in the circus,but I would trade anything to see Elvis in concert around 76/77 R. I P.King of Rock
Great video! Hopefully you can check out Barton Coliseum at the Arkansas State Fairgrounds in Little Rock soon. Elvis performed there in 1972 and a clip of him coming into the dressing room is featured in Elvis on Tour. It hasn’t changed much, similar to the Norick Arena.
I wonder whats about the song oklahoma from elvis never been to spain.but to oklahoma🎉🎉🎉
