Personally i like being able to articles that have been posted. As an Aussie fan and also i was only 6 when Elvis died i didn't see any of these.

Thank you for sharing form your collection.

And for those members who don't like what was written in the articles you post ... then they can simply move on to other areas of the forum that interest them more.

You'd think it would be that simple ...

Fact is, Elvis was hospitalised in October 1973 after almost overdosing.

It had nothing to do with pneumonia.

Exactly! And the fact that I stated that does NOT make me a "bad fan."

Unbelievable ...

Unfortunately we couldn't control the spin that was put into those newspaper articles....obviously "pneumonia" sounds MUCH better than "almost overdosing".

But the fans that don't wish to talk about those aspects of Elvis' life should just move on from those topics and choose other topics that are more appealing to them.

TCB!

I'm going to post this and ya'll will probably boot me off the forum, but here goes

1. There is a possibility there was some truth to the pneumonia story. If he aspirated during the overdose, it could have turned to pneumonia.

2. Why do "we" have to know the truth? Who are "we"? So "we" bought tickets and albums, did that entitle us to his life and his soul? Frankly, it was none of our business. Maybe we should start a thread called "all our faults and problems" and see how we like having our lives discussed to pieces. Let's get those divorces and affairs up there for everyone to see.

3. "We" complain about the press harping on his drug use and not his musical abilities or his talents and "we" bring the drug subject up just as much as they do. If we can't let it go (and we claim to love him) how do we expect the press(who could care less about him) to let it go. Seems "we" are as guilty as everyone else.

I somehow agree with CRITTERGITTER, you said it very well, we all have personal problems and dark secrets... And nobody would be glad if the whole world would know it. And you're right, buying the tickets, albums, DVDs don't entitle us to his life and his soul. But I think Elvis was the one who put his soul, his heart and his life into the songs. There are many songs what really make me feel that he sang about himself. But Rosanne just shared an article, that's all. And I'm very glad she shares her wonderful memories here, because I can know more about the time when I wasn't even born. Keep them coming Rosanne!!

It all depends on perspective. Some might thing OMGosh an overdose!!!! As serious as it is, people with drug problems live on the edge of that daily. Having a drug problem does not make him a horrible person. So I say so what. It happens. Sad but true.
And I don't blame anyone for protecting him. Last thing he needed was the media hounding him. The media can be like Vultures and rip people to shreds with any little morsel they can get their hands on.
I personally feel that celebrities owe the public nothing when it comes to the truth.

It's a joke.........
