    I remember when I saw this a while back, I was so excited to see the last part of the footage too. Elvis looks so cool here. I wish there was more footage like this.

    "How do I get placed in situations like this? Ah hell, I guess it's all part of showbusiness "~ Elvis in his limo on his way to perform in Omaha, NE on June 19th 1977

    There are evident cuts at 4:30 and 7:05, wonder if ever will see the full interview, its been revealing little more bit by bit since that small part in the Great Performances videos and then in those GT VHS's tapes back in the 90's.

    Glad this is new for you U. M.

    First of all. thanks for the link. Really love this press conference as he's so sharp, looks great, like a caged panther. He also says a couple of very telling things, for example, right off the hop Elvis was asked, how he liked Houston, or Texas in general. He said he liked it, "compared to Las Vegas." So after his second Vegas engagement, he already had started to sour playing that city. He also chose to criticize his movies, which he also did in EOT.

    Yes, when he says "I hope to make better movies than I did before" he knew he put his foot in his mouth, so he started "coughing". That was too funny.

    Thanks for posting, he says in the last part, Vancouver Canada was the largest crowd he had ever played to at that point, "25,000.00". I believe that was 1957.
    I read stories that he didn't sell out the first show in Houston on that tour and he thought it was over. But all the shows that followed were sold out by that afternoon.

    guess coming out of all them movies the people weren't used to the "Elvis on Tour" yet.
