We are all that little bit closer to Elvis because of Billy and his amazing work. Bless.
Thank you Billy and Trey! And a very special thank you to Pete for allowing us Elvis fans to see something most have never seen!
Another excellent series Spa Guy. Thanks again for documenting another part of Elvis history.
Pete thank you for your time and showing us around. I hope The Knickerbocker is kindly to Pete, because these places are a treasure to us Elvis fans. I enjoyed all three parts. Thank you Spa Guy and Trey.
Amazing and to be in the building must have been fantastic and on the roof.Elvis was in here.so many stars in that building to.ooh my .& to see The photos of Elvis in his room here.Thank you so much Billy.Trey and Pete you have made our day.who would have imagined this.
All three parts fantastic ! Thank you Billy and thank you, Pete !
Thank you Billy and Trey for the great videos. They were truly fascinating. And a big thank you to Pete for showing you around.
Thanks Spa Guy i enjoy these Elvis stories .
GOOD MORNING SPA GUY, ANOTHER GREAT STORY. ELVIS DID ALOT OF THINKING ABOUT HIS FUTURE. THE FOREVER KING!!!
Thank you Billy, Trey & Pete 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 just unbelievable! 😍
👍😀🙏😇👑👍💝wonderful!...the best Spa guy!..👏👏👏👏👏💝🙋
Entertainers act sing etc...but we see them on TV & movies & in recent history on WWW media but these people who were great actors singers musicians so forth gave us such joy with their time in front of the camera. They made us laugh ...or judge plainly entertained us. An escape from stresses of life.
Plus these who we got to love in Hollywood we felt we knew them in a sort of way. Because though they acted we could see the real person behind the acting.
Who cannot love Lucy Desi Ethel or Fred or the Duke on & on...
Seen the vid of Elvis on the Greyhound Bus singing It's a long lonely highway...I bet it 's not far away from where the bat cave was....on your recent vid. Wild guess.
But Knickerbocker Hotel stories have come alive once more thanks to Pete & Billy & Trey.
Bet Elvis had no idea either that one day 60-70 yrs later people would see where he lived for 2 months or viewed where he sat on the wall on the roof.
What history this hotel holds. Another home run !
There's Billy, makin' friends and sharing stories. Thank you Sir!
Spa guy ,you deserve every special access you receive sir. Outstanding job....Everytime ! Thank you....I so enjoy your channel.
This just ranks up there in the highest of cool! I would have been like a kid at Christmas in that building! Not only Elvis, but all the others too! A great video and love the pictures you shared that helped bring it all to life! I love your banner days! Thank you Spa guy, Trey & Pete!
WOW !! THAT WAS so great I love Elvis history . I want to know as much about him as I can. Thanks spy guy thanks pete . keep them coming spy guy 🌸💗💖👍
Another great video series and very interesting history there, is this a hotel or apartments or both? People living there 30 and 60 years, WOW, I know the rent isn't cheap there! On another note, I saw on the receipt you filmed they had his name as 'Elvin Presley', I can imagine Elvis just shaking his head paying the bill at this mistake, it sure wouldn't be very long after that and 'no one' would ever get his name wrong ever again! ;-) Great work fellas please keep these adventures coming!
This blog series reminds me of the James Taylor song, Upon the Roof. Elvis went on the roof to get away from it all. I'm glad you guys did too. That pencil sharpener is cool. I wonder what he wrote using it.
Another Gem,, it's great to see all these wonderful stories all the way in the UK England, I'd love to visit n see all the History, even had the offer from my dad to bring me BUT I'm terrified of flying, managed 3hr flights but last one was a bad one, so never again 😢😢😢maybe one day xx
Great series Billy & Trey, appreciate you guys and your time and effort to bring us this history of Elvis
Amazing! Thank you so much Spa Guy! God bless!
Pete is such a cool fella with a neat job. I would live to work there. And that sharpener! How cool is that!!
Wow this was fantastic series love you guys and your time and effort to bring us this great history of elvis thank u x ☓ 💜 ❤️ 👍 2019 x

thx SPA GUY, and TREY!
Excellent coverage! - Thanks again Billy & Trey
Привет! Благодарю. Смотрю и слушаю с удовольствием.
Hotel onde o Elvis ficou quando estrelou o filme Love-me Tender.
O Elvis nas horas vagas, ficava ouvindo suas músicas em uma pequena eletrola portátil. Certa vez, um fotógrafo que o acompanhava nos Shows, perguntou-lhe por quê ele fazia isso quando tinha equipamentos muito melhores em Hollywood.
Elvis disse-lhe:
- Acontece que meus fãs me ouvem aqui, em um aparelho como este.
Grande Elvis Presley.
Thanks Pete
What a great series. Wow!
Ok, I get the location now. I believe that the original Brown Derby was at Hollywood & Vine. I’ve seen the place numerous times but never knew the history. Thank you, I’ve learned more Hollywood history! I use to live on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and N. Martel. I used to last this everyday. Who knew? Thanks Spa Guy!!
I bet Elvis gave you all the things you wished for that day! ❤️❤️
At the top of the Knickerbocker invoice they have Elvis' name as Elvin Piesley and its Tom Parkers Madison address. You can tell its old because Tennessee doesn't abbreviate Tenn anymore its Tn. Also, The history that you capture isnt luck. Its you wanting it bad enough and being an awesome person. Elvis may be guiding all of the adventures. Like i said before, if Elvis was alive he'd buy you a Cadillac.
In the TV series Sargent Bilko there's an episode that portrays Elvis of course it's not really Elvis playing the part. in the episode he's called Elvin.The episode is called Rock N Roll rookie
Wow amazing story from his early days.Cool videos.
I was excited to see part 3 come in my box Billy. No other star to date has touched me the way Elvis did. And I never even got to see him in concert or anyway. There was just something about him...his presence, his charisma, his southern charm, humbleness, etc...I wish he could have did the movie A Star Is Born, as I think it would have taken his career in a whole different direction. But things happened the way it was meant to be I guess as the Lord has our lives laid out knowing when we don't. Thanks Billy for always going in and re-enacting these moments in history for us, finding people like Pete, etc...they are so eye opening and just puts that little piece of the puzzle together bit by bit for us fans who wouldn't have been born in that time period or even people who were, but wouldn't have seen this type of thing because of locations and such. It's amazing to relive this moment in history!
once again you came through for us elvis fans
Thanks for all your hard work....
You are the best
Wow, this was a fantastic series!! I love you guys & the awesome info you find & research. Then you’re so kind to share all this with people who admire your passion to know more of the truth & about the missing pieces. My goodness, what a team.....I honestly see you guys going places! Thank you for all the hours y’all put into making these masterpieces! A million thanks & I pray for safe travels for you guys. Can’t wait to see what you will show to us next!!🤗🙏🏻👍
Thank you So Much Billy to you,Trey,Pete and all involved in making this Wonderful video😁I Love learning more about Elvis and places he was at and the history❤️
Gives me goosebumps.. Just Love Him So Much!! Thank you again!!
Tighten up and God Bless❤️
🎅🏻🎄☃️
My grandfather used to always say the same thing. Believe half of what you see and nothing of what you hear.
Watching this It occurred to me Elvis at this point in his life was middle age...man what he would go on to do with that second half.
To this day I always wonder what he would have created. Thinking besides the music, he would have maybe had more children to even being behind the camera, being a part of Hollywood. We will never know. We lost a gem that’s for sure.
I should really comment after watching the complete video but in my defense I always watch multiple times.
Great job Billy and Trey.
Starlite: Elvis in 1956 would have been a mere 21 years old -- hardly qualifying as "middle aged."
He is saying middle aged based on his death age..
This has been so exciting to getting to see where Elvis stayed in the Knickerbocker and finding out about all of the other stars that has stayed there as well . So much history...!! That was very nice of Pete to give you and Trey the tour and he should you the pencil sharpener that was in Elvis' room . Thank you Spa Guy and Trey Miller for taking us along and sharing this wonderful video !! I love it !!
P.S. Spa Guy, I think if Elvis was still here..... You and Elvis would have already become great buddies .
Wonder if that pencil sharpener was really his or not. Great video. Lots of history at that hotel. Thanks for sharing.
Nice of Pete to show and talk you both around the hotel. I Absolutely love them 3 part videos- it Made my friday evening 👍
This was elvis pencil sharpener. Wow. Lol. I still love you.
Pete is an awesome guy! Thanks from an Elvis fans for helping the Spa Guy film this:)
Thanks Pete!
Da gusto verlo,excepcional video.
Hello from England
Thanks Pete for your insight into the people who stayed at the Knickerbocker Hotel - 60 + years ago WOW.
Great set of videos. Very enjoyable!
Loved all 3 videos guys very interesting honestly its like I dont want them to end while watching them lol. Pete tightened up And gave yous a tour man if the walls in that hotel could talk can you imagine the stories it would tell of Elvis and every other celebrity that stayed there. Thanks Billy and Trey you guys are the best.
Its so cool that its still there and you guys did this. A very neat vlog for sure👍🏻😎
WOW, Great final part of this Elvis story, I Love that pencil sharpener!
That sharpener is a treasure to cherish. Thnx Spa Guy for bringing such fabulous Elvis history. The drone coverage was great to watch. Thnx a lot bro. & stay fine.
Thank you for another awesome video Spa Guy and Trey. Thank you Pete. I could sit and listen to your stories about the Knickerbocker all day.
Did you notice on that receipt Elvis' name is misspelled? ❤
Believe in all you read here Spa guy, loved this and thank you, 🌟👌🎅
Outstanding report, gentlemen. I've been to Hollywood many times but have never gotten past the lobby.
Very nice, thank you guys!
Really great video spa guy. Totally awesome video.
Mr.Spa Guy your a lucky man to be able to do these things wow I love it ty for sharing xo
Awesome Billy. I believe Scotty, DJ and Bill stayed in a room there too.
Tin roof lol another great video. Thanks so much for all you do.
Thanks for show us more of Elvis !!! Great video 🌸
I have a funny story about my in- counter with Axl Rose and Slash, in a NYC bar, back in the mid 80s. It’s too long to write here but quite funny.
I have to tell you one day in person.
I think during the 2 months Elvis stayed at the Knickerbocker he got to know Robert Mitchum and would go to his house for BBQ's. That's when Mitchum wanted Elvis to star in 'Thunder Road'.
Excellent! Thank you very much!
Thanks spa guy pity Elvis isn't around to tell all his stories
Wow you learn something new about Elvis all the time.
Great series. Enjoyed!
How cool is that pencil sharpener...
Super Cool!!
Didn't Elvis get kicked out of that hotel?
Hey Billy, fun fact about Axl Rose. He is a huge Elvis fan and on his left arm up by his shoulder one of his first tattoos he got was of the patch from Elvis's army uniform of the yellow shield with the red lightening bolt going through it.
Another great history capture with good facts melded in by SG and MrT. And thanks to Mr Pete for showing you all around the Knickerbocker. If it were someone else there working you may not have been able to get the after hours Grand Tour. Thanks again.
The quality of the historical information in your videos remains excellent!!! This is where Elvis lived when he achieved what he believed at the time to be his lifetime dream, he became a movie star. As with all desires, the reality of the achievement did not exactly live up to the ideal of the dream, but at this moment in his life, Elvis wasn't thinking about a series of poor quality scripts, but of an unlimited future with this movie being the first and least. He was stepping through the door into the future he always wanted. He was basking in the the achievement he had earned through hard work over the last few years. Elvis had never climbed higher than he had during the days he lived in this hotel and his future looked even better. I personally do not believe Elvis ever had a career decline in any given year, but I do see how Elvis, having achieved his life's dream at this point when he lived at this hotel in his early twenties with his career barely started, could find it difficult to remain motivated year after year. He had to keep dreaming bigger and bigger dreams. But at this moment in his life, I believe his success tasted the sweetest and the feelings and emotions he had experienced over the past 3 years are the ones he chased for the rest of his life.
Very well done SG. Pete- thanks. Plus love the pencil sharpener. Saying what you already know SG- Elvis is bringing you luck in all this.
Axil Rose has a tattoo on his upper arm of the Unit Crest that Elvis & I served in too.
1st Battalion 32nd Armor in Germany at Ray barracks. NOW..........He never served , so I wonder was it a clue to ELVIS for his tatoo of our Unit Billy?
Awesome!
Mr Spa Guy, do you know if Elvis took any acting lessons? Bless his heart I bet he was nervous as a cat on a hot tub roof.
He did not purposely.. They did not want his natural acting ability to be messed up by lessons..
Brilliant vid, regards from England 👍🏻
Loved all three of these🔥
An absolute awesome series! Really enjoyed this SG
WOW again, gets better and better. Thanks to Al BTB E G.l
Very cool and video footage, I enjoy watching this type of videos.
Awesome work SP and T. Look forward to your adventures each week. Was in Hollywood last year..wish I knew of the Knickerbocker back then.
Totally Awesome!
Great three parter! I’d never heard of the knickerbocker. I wonder if he stayed there for any of the other pre army movies 🎥 good job man
Nope he was kicked out never to return..
This may be weird but that's exactly how I would envision an Elvis pencil sharpener to look.
Me too!! LOL!!
Great history👌🇺🇸
Wow! Just finished the 3 part series. This was fascinating!
It’s funny, I was there 2 years ago on vacation. When we were in that area, all we did was focus on the Capitol Records building. No idea the history of the hotel right there!
soooo cool....
Hey Billy, Ask Trey was he in a Film about John Wilkes Booth.
If he wasnt I saw his TWIN on TV last night. Hahahaha
Stabbin' folks and stuff, you better WATCH that guy.
He played a good part :)
Yes that w as him.. He really stabbed that guy and did a Great job!!
Elvis Forever 💕💕 Cool information and interesting tidbit regarding Axl’s location when he got welcomed to the jungle;) GNR fan since the beginning. Most girls in my class liked NKOTB, LOL!! I was a GNR, Cinderella, White Snake gal but we all liked Bon Jovi. Oh the 80/90’s, I miss them sooo! I’d go back even further before my time bc they were the best, but that’s just my opinion.
The 80's was the Greatest Decade known to man in my opinion..
Spa Guy I agree! The variety of music was phenomenal, great movies. I grew up in the eighties, had older brother and cousins so I definitely enjoyed my childhood but like most was in a rush to be a little older to join in with the older kids getting to go concerts, etc. Of course the early nineties were a blast for me as well. But, the 80s were definitely special, all about happiness and good times, whether with family, something for everyone from kids to adults. Arcade games, Atari, cartoons and epic music. If I could go back in a time machine to experience Elvis and do it all over again, I would. I at least was in existence ten months while Elvis was alive, so there’s that. 😊 Loved the Dukes of Hazzard, too.
Thanks so much! Loved this.
Great video! My son and I were just at that W Hotel recently that you can see from the roof of The Knickerbocker! In the book Elvis A to Z, it says he stayed at The Knickerbocker during filming of Love Me Tender and Loving You. Also says his parents stayed with him. Then, as you mentioned, Beverly Wilshire for Jailhouse Rock..Awesome work!
I don;t think A-Z is correct.. According to Gene Smith his cousin who was there they got kicked out after 2 months and stayed at the Beverly Wilshire after that.. But Gene did have some thinks incorrect in his book like the floor they were on and that kind of thing..
Spa Guy Yes, I’ve noticed an inaccuracy or two in that A-Z book. It has TH Barton Coliseum in San Antonio when it’s actually in Little Rock. A-Z got it wrong based on editing of Elvis on Tour where they show the Barton Coliseum marquee and then Jackie Kahane on stage saying “and now we’re here in San Antone”. Details, details...ha! Keep up the good work brother! If you make it over to Little Rock I’ll buy you dinner!
Another great video! ❤
Wow I didn't realize so much history here at the Knickerbocker... thanks Billy ,Trey and Pete... wonderful..I so enjoyed this....EP forever 💞
I enjoyed that very much thank you Billy just to add I own one of those pencil sharpeners that belong to British actor producer and director Leslie Howard
It is a really cool sharpener I imagine it was a gift from someone while he was there..
SG - when are you coming to Hollywood again / hello from Hollywood Joe
thanks billy for these videos a spot on story again merry christmas and a happy new year from paul.alissa martin
Cool pencil sharpener!!
What was it I saw on the paper? It had Elvin?
You always bring it Spa Guy!!
Priscilla probably familiar with that Scientology joint
Yeah sure and to think Elvis was in the next building year before.
I just realized when he turns the TV off on the wall, the old guy they show is Stan Laurel of Laurel and Hardy fame.
Yes they lived in that building..
