Posted on July 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

A few weeks ago, when I was reviewing pictures in my files for the recurring feature Postscripts to Earlier Elvisblogs, there were several photos from Elvis’ first appearance in Las Vegas.

Posted on August 7, 2010 by | 2 Comments

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Ignores TCB Boys Again

Posted on December 17, 2009 by | Leave a comment

The Rock & Fall Hall of Fame announced the Class of 2010 inductees today, and for some reason, they skipped the Sidemen category. This means that Jerry Scheff, Ronnie Tutt, Glen D.
