Key days in Elvis' life that landed on your birthdate

[Joe Car]

Looking at Getlo's "Holy Grail" thread reminded me of two historic days in EP's life that landed on my birthdate, which is on Oct 3, not giving the year!

The first being Oct 3/1942, a seven year old Elvis singing Old Shep at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy show.

The second, Oct 3/1977, the day Elvis In Concert was shown on tv!

What are some key moments in Elvis' life that happen to fall on your birthdate?

Edit : I found this December 16, 1961: The soundtrack to Blue Hawaii reaches #1 on the album charts, where it will remain for 20 weeks. With sales of 2 million, it is Elvis Presley’s best-selling album to date

Obviously i weren't born then. But my birthday is December 16th. I guess i am his good luck charm
