Kewl pics, Matt.

The station wagon thing reminded me of another photo I had seen on Paul's Elvis Page (Candid Central) years ago from December '76 in Las Vegas...

Is Elvis arriving to the motel(?) in a station wagon? It sure seems that way. Why would Elvis stay in a flea bag motel and ride around in a station wagon? Shouldn't he be arriving in a limo? Great candid photos though. Elvis looks totally cool in the dark with dark look.

As far as the station wagon, he probably wanted to call very little attention to himself & the MM. The fleabag Motel well, there's that really funny story that Elvis liked to repeat for laughs. He was booked in what was a 5 Star hotel in years past by the Colonel, but when he & the boys arrived it was less than great. He had the guys call around to find better accomodations. Finally one hotel clerk told them, "There are NO rooms to be had anywhere, don't you know that Elvis is in town?"

I was going to say almost the same thing. I have seen Elvis in a station wagon before,but the super 8 or whatever does seem a bit odd.Anyway they are great pics and they prove Elvis was a human and not a stuck up idol.
Beside Sony and Red, joe and Linda who else is in the pics???????

From left to right: Dick Grob, Joe Esposito, Red West, Elvis, Sonny West, Dave Hebler, Linda Thompson. On the foreground a security officer.

Leroy, I don't know what we would do without you and your vast store of knowledge about Elvis.

Just don't ever go away.........Diane
