Lots of fun doing this video with you Trey!

[@GlobetrottingWithTrey]

Banner day of filming Norm, we have a lot more great stuff for the fans right?

[@russellgay5337]

This is perhaps one of the most well preserved and least renovated Elvis locations so far. Thanks Trey!

[@LisaRobinson0725]

And in addition to my initial comment, I enjoyed the film on so many levels. I appreciate the fact that this is the first time that a film about Elvis Presley truly revealed the cultural influences that shaped his wonderfully caring attitude, core beliefs, musical style, and image in general. It reveals how open-minded he was concerning social-political politics albeit he kept his opinions close to his chest while allowing his music to be his voice. There wasn't a prejudice bone in his body, in my opinion. He wasn't judgemental since he analyzed people not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character, and that is a beautiful characteristic to have. He had great discernment concerning some things, but, was blind to other areas of his personal life as many of us are... However, that just shows to prove that no one is perfect. EP was a natural talent that missed his true calling concerning some aspects of his life... He got caught up in a bad contract due to his manager's greed, his outrageous spending habits, and he associated with many people that didn't have his best interest at heart. And unfortunately due to his isolation, poor health care alongside the weight of fame and fortune without proper guidance and good management, life began to take a tremendous toll on his health overall. Once he realized his predicament he tried to make significant changes, unfortunately, it was too late. He grew angry, deeply depressed, and clamored for help, as far as, his pride would allow... Ultimately, tragically and unfortunately he passed away, alone.

I really enjoyed this Trey. Thank You for what you do for us true Elvis fans... 👍👍 🎸 🇺🇸.

[@annieleouzon6598]

Elvis was .quite a revolutionary perfomer for his time. .They never encounter someone like him before...H e knew that he had to comply with the restrictions that was imposed. to him..He didn t want to create anymore trouble since he was only tolerated there.. That was the law than..but his obedience paid, as he gained the respect of the judge ,who became a fan for life....TREY, 🎼🎶THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES🎼🎵🎶🎻

This was a very nervous time for Elvis

[@lynnelovett8999]

Love your hard work in telling us the TRUTH about Elvis and keeping the Elvis history and puzzle straight too. Thank for keeping the record straight Mr. Trey on the so called new Elvis movie as well. I have heard bits and pieces about the movie and know it ISN'T a TRUE piction of Elvis. I have no desire to see the Hollyweird sensationalizing of Elvis. Elvis was tame compared to dirty dancing and other crud that has come since the 1950s. Maybe you might be able find out if the girl Elvis was kissing on the cheek in the one picture is still with us. And maybe get her take on meeting Elvis. Yes Elvis had a way of making you a fan for sure. A fantastic vlog Mr. Trey. Thank you. You are the super sleuth at Elvis history and puzzle.

[@wetblanket1977]

I am amazed

[@troychristman5662]

Man this is too cool. As a Jax native, born and raised, who has seen many shows at the FL Theater, I really appreciate it. And the stories of Elvis' show were definitely passed down from my parents' generation. Too cool that this all actually happened at this show. Elvis has left the building!

[@sandralybrand9425]

That's so fantastic that they've kept the historical value of the theatre! Fantastic find Trey!

[@elvisfan61]

All of those "old" people in the photo of the mayor make me laugh. Their faces are STONE watching Elvis. Welp, now I'm one of those old people, but from day 1, when I see Elvis, it's all smiles. Glad the mayor became an Elvis fan. Great video. Always love the match ups.

Thank you for all this was so awesome and interesting about young Elvis 👌 💯👏Tha k you Trey and Spaguy😎🙌

[@hallsjuju2400]

Wished I had been aware at this time but I was not born until ‘55. Not coming from a musical family I never knew about the younger Elvis. That is the era that I am an Elvis fan of. How he changed it all.

Absolutely fantastic Trey!! Thanks so much, your accurate accounts of Elvis history is greatly appreciated 🙏🏻⚡️ really enjoy your Elvis videos 🥰👏🏻

[@badapple65]

I wonder if any of the car salesmen are still around that were lucky enough to have Elvis walk in and buy 5-7 cars at one time. Or the Harley dealer in CA I believe he purchased 10 bikes at once. A salesman’s dream! Another great video thank You.

[@retiredgroceryclerk]

Excellent video Trey. Thank you for setting the record straight. In the movie the venue was so different.

[@banjopaul5749]

Elvis’s old haunts are just magical…the imagination is set on fire. See ya down the road Trey.

[@stevelehman7637]

Thank you for sharing with us. I would of liked seeing Elvis when he first started out, so young. He was full of so much energy. His hair is brown then. He did look better with black hair. Elvis went from little stages to hugh ones. From a small following to more than you could imagine. Elvis had a journey that rock our world. A Elvis fan for life. Long lives Elvis! Hard to think of now days, as bad. People are wild.

[@GlobetrottingWithTrey]

The early years are what fascinates me

[@margarettaylor8107]

Steve, I love Elvis in black hair but he is also a beauty in brown..recall those pix from his army return. Also, Ray Walker preferred his fawn brown hair.

[@MisterMasterShafter1]

Great stuff, Trey. I knew about this and what happened in FL 1956, but never seen the place until this.

[@shirley1811]

Thank You Trey! Nice video, great details! We Elvis fans enjoy and most important is the accurate information you give us fans. Furthermore, Trey! You learned from the best (The Spa Guy) giving us the opportunity to see places that Elvis performed and Historic theaters that hold incredible stories that not many of us know about.

Just amazing theatre. So glad it's still around and in much of its original condition. So cool to see the real place where he shook his pinkie. He talks about this on the Comeback Special. Awesome vid, Trey. Look forward to your next one. Take care.

[@cdavidwhitten]

Really cool, Trey! I will make mention, the area of new stage in the downstage area, appears to have been added to fill in the orchestra pit. Just guessing, the picture from’56 probably shows the press staged in the orchestra pit, not a VIP area.

[@lechat8533]

This was amazing! Thank you, Trey! It`s a pity they didn`t film the "Pinky Finger" scene in the new Elvis movie here at the right spot. But now that we have your documentary, in our mind, we will always add the facts by ourselves :)) Once you know things, you can`t un-know them. Right?!

[@GlobetrottingWithTrey]

That’s right! Now you know where it really happened. Would have been great to see it truly depicted in the movie in the actual theater it happened!

[@lechat8533]

@@GlobetrottingWithTrey Thanks for your reply, Trey :) I just wanted to add that the way you filmed this theatre (from Elvis` view), made an enormous impact on me. The first thing that came to mind was his stage fright and I thought "Oh boy... Poor Elvis!" It`s quite big and the construction is pompous and can be intimidating when you imagine all seats being taken.

[@dinshawpocha4882]

Wow Trey this is fantastic some amazing photo line ups and a theatre that's still standing after all these years, what I also liked was that the restoration was done sympathetically they didn't just knock original walls down to gain a bigger area. Trey I would like to ask you how would you go about finding the footage that was taken by the police of Elvis in 1956 at this theatre? Someone must have it even after all these years. What do you think?

[@PauloPereira-jj4jv]

That police footage was already used in a documentary. It still exist.

I guess the judge became an Elvis fan because he realized that Elvis was a great entertainer and a very nice person. I always wondered where it happened at cause Elvis mentions this on the 68 Comeback Special. Elvis said the police came out and all I could move was my little finger. Lol. Another great piece of Elvis history. Keep up the good work Trey. You rock ! Thank you very much ❤

[@kelliintexas3575]

04:21 That is definitely Junior & Gene FOR SURE & 10:43 Shows the piano center stage, so that's where the piano was there. This is some of my FAVORITE PHOTOS. Knowing June & her friends were there. He was surrounded by real friends, family & his puppy love. You know he looked back on these years the rest of his life. The thrill of it all, the money & excitement. No real concerns, I think Linda would be the only girl he would have that kind of dedication from again. Just being spoiled and catered to while traveling. It's a shame really, inside he was a beautiful person, he deserved real love. Everyone changes when they find THE ONE, I don't think he was any different. His health just gave out first. I wish he had journaled, to know his views on it all would be mind blowing. Listening to his interviews, the books he read, his never ending quest for salvation & spirituality- he was a deep person. His journals would have been MIND BLOWING.

[@Elizabeth-dw6lc]

Beautiful theater! June Juanico wrote about this event in her book. I wonder if that was the piano he sang Unchained Melody to her on?!

Thats what I was always to believe it was in Florida in 56 and was told he couldnt shake his hips he could not even moves his little pinky, however Elvis did move his pinky and moved and did get in trouble. You are correct and I said it even when I seen the trailer for the movie he couldnt have sung trouble because he didnt even know the song yet.

[@LisaRobinson0725]

It doesn't matter, it's Hollywood so not everything is going to be precise. But, it's about the message. The fact Elvis Presley was taken advantage of Big Time by a lot of people (and family) that he trusted. He was an amazing performing artist that was also a significant contributor to cultural change. I perceive him as the first multi-cultural artist/influencer. The movie is fantastic and dispels many delusions about the man, Elvis Presley. Too many people glorify EP. He's not to be glorified. He's to be respected and admired for his amazing talent. And, EP, said it in his own words, but I paraphrase, "I appreciate your sentiment, but I'm not a king, there's only one king at that's Jesus Christ."

[@gussygatlin3093]

It looks like the stage was added onto.... After watching the whole video you did say this,lol What DAY was Elvis there in August 1956.... I might have missed that, if anyone knows, Thanks!

[@johndavis3921]

Trey, I'm aware that some people are having doubts about the film's credibility. Mr. Lurhmann is a scriptwriter and director. He is using a dramatic license. He claims he used the Colonel's private archive to create his script. From my understanding, Mr. Lurhmann is the first person to do a media project about Elvis using the Colonel's archive. So, I am taking Mr. Lurhmann at his word. I hope he isn't lying. Mr. Lurhmann said he read newspaper clippings to get a mental picture of the fuss Elvis caused. Mr. Lurhmann combined incidents from different performances to create a scene. Mr. Lurhmann said he used pictures taken by the FBI during the Russwood Park show. The FBI pictures were not of the finger incident. He incorporated the finger into the scene but the FBI's photographs show Elvis engaging in anticks, according to Mr. Lurhmann, similar to or rawer than anything the Sex Pistols or the Plasmatics did in the late 70s He set the scene at Russwood Park to do a juxtaposition since on the same night, 3 miles away, Senator Eastland was holding a Say NO to Segregation rally at the Overton Park Band Shell. The Senator had 3,500 attendees, and Elvis had 7,000. This incident is listed in Peter Guralnick's book. I wonder if the Freedom of Information Act can be used to verify any of the plot points.

[@GlobetrottingWithTrey]

He is lying to the world. The movie is garbage and not through the colonels eye. They don’t get 80 percent of it right! Do not go to that film and believe it.

[@kelliintexas3575]

@John I have seen Baz openly give an interview straight faced saying Elvis benefited from "White Privlage" growing up. Elvis & EVERYONE around him was so DIRT POOR there wasn't ANY PRIVLAGE. When your a child that poor like during the depression, trivial stuff like skin color goes out the window. EVERYONE is equally hungry, equally turning to God and equally just trying to survive. A Tupelo historian Roy Turner said it best - Elvis Presley’s generous habit of giving to others throughout his lifetime can be traced back to his roots of growing up poor in Tupelo. According to Turner, in the small community that Elvis grew up in “they all knew each other or worked together in the factory or went to church together and they all supported each other however they could. If one person had a radio, it was there for all to come over and listen to the Grand Ole Opry on Sat. night. If one had a sewing machine all the ladies were welcome to use it… It was a sharing community. No one had a lot and no one felt better than the other in general.” Baz made me start questioning him from then on. It's like saying any of those poor sharecroppers kids in 'The Grapes of Wrath' had "White Privlage" 🙄 those REAL children ARE Elvis, Jessie Garon with no prenatal care, Dolly Pardons coat of many colors, Loretta Lynn and all her sibblings, Johnny Cash and his eldest brother cut in half at such a tender age, I could keep going. Their is Class Privlage but not race. Then I found a round table Interview for Entertainment Weekly. The entire "Elvis" class is around a table talking about how they come to learn of Elvis the first time. Baz actually has the nerve to steal Elvis' story of Red West saving him in High School from having his hair cut. He spins the story and says HE - BAZ- was in a Catholic school and wore pink socks to school. A group of bull's locate him in the bathroom and almost smash his face in. This big guy "saves him" and says "So what! Elvis wore pink socks too" 😑 Then says he was left alone and was cool then... 03:55. Austin calling Baz on his LIE and not even realizing it! 🤣🤣🤣 I can't too damn funny!! Baz was really gonna take Elvis' favorite story, make it his own and expect no one to notice... 😆😆😆Typical Celeb. Fake as hell. Tom Hanks already said he had No clue about Elvis or his music in another interview. He then went on ELVIS' RADIO and repeated a bunch of Elvis' lies where we KNOW, EAT, SLEEP & BREATHE ELVIS. Here is the Interview: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGLVqq2frc93e80 Baz has the nerve to say "Wow! I NEVER NOTICED THE PARALLEL.." REALLY?!?! But he claims to be a Die hard Elvis fan?!?! 🙄 I think Austin himself is now a Elvis fan for life though. I have seen several interviews where he said he listened to Elvis for 3years every day, and both lost their moms at the same age. I always notice he talks of Elvis with sheer love and Humility like I do. He genuinely feels that same spiritual connection to Elvis we all do. Baz & Tom are 100% posers. Tom said on Elvis radio he never heard of the Colonel & never even seen him. He said he didn't want to even read a book on him cause he didn't want to have a Bias... WHAT?!?! Austin says he read every GF & MM book he could get his hands on. So Austin KNOWS the facts. The part in the movie that raised my brows was their suggestion that a Senate Committee drafted EP to harness his race relations on the youth. The FBI & CIA at that time ABSOLUTELY would have done so. It just never was a thought I had. Same with them Drafting Ali. Then to have JFK killed in '63, Then Robert & MLK killed. The bay of pigs, Hoover was into some horrible things then. I don't doubt it at all. Then look at today's Bengahzi, Chris Stephen's, 9/11 & The FBI involved in Michigan Capital plot and Jan 6th. It's DEFINITELY something they would do.
