Why Elvis?

That's what we'd like to know... so on August 2nd we headed to Graceland with a four chick crew and a pink Cadillac for the 30th Anniversary of the King's passing (d. 8/16/77). The caddy died two days in (check out our Blog archive) but we kept going! We met hundreds of fans along the way and witnessed the amazing 50,000 person vigil in front of the King's mansion on the evening of August 15th.

So now we must make the documentary so stay tuned.

Also, if you were there please send your pictures, stories and memories to:
elvisroadtripdoc@yahoo.com.
Note: All of the images on our website (save for any of the King himself) have been sent to us by family, friends and other fans - or taken by one of the crew.

TCB!

Elvis International Fan Club tour of Graceland - We're on it!


We'd been contemplating whether or not we should take the time to tour Graceland while we're in Memphis...Not that we didn't want to, but we knew it would take at least a couple of hours and we need to be filming fans 24/7. I didn't want to say it, but I was a little bit bummed at the prospect of traveling all the way to Memphis and not going inside The Home.

Lucky for me/us, Jason Edge and Elvis International Fan Club have come to our rescue (or something like that): Jason, as the head of EI, is the president of one of the big EP fan clubs and so we asked him for an interview during Elvis Week...He graciously said yes, then invited us to join his Fan Club on a special group tour of Graceland on August 16. (Full disclosure: Erica is a member of Elvis International.)

Suddenly, visiting Graceland doesn't seem like a personal indulgence! Now it will be another vignette in the documentary - can't wait to see who we meet!
