This concert was viewed by 1.5 Billion people worldwide in 1973! A record that has not been broken!! Evidence that Elvis was and still is "The King of Music!"❤❤❤
This concert was A BENEFIT TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE KUI LEE CANCER FUND. It was expected to raise $25,000 & it raised $75,000. Elvis bought his own ticket for $1,000 & audience members were told they could pay whatever they wanted to -- there was no set ticket price. THAT RUNWAY from the STAGE: Thanks to the genius of producer/director Marty Pasetta, he told Parker (Elvis' manger) that he wanted to build a runway for Elvis to walk out onto & Parker said no. Pasetta explained that it would be 8 ft. wide & Elvis could stay in the middle or go to the left or to the right if he wanted to because Pasetta knew how important the audience was to Elvis, but Parker still said no. Fortunately, Pasetta was able to meet w-Elvis & he explained exactly what he told Parker. Fortunately again, Elvis overrode Parker & told Pasetta to build the runway. Pasetta told Elvis he needed to lose some weight & Elvis lost 25 lbs. Elvis then hugged Pasetta & said you are one of the few people who has been totally honest w-me. Thanks to that runway, we see Elvis with the opportunity to get in close touch w-the audience. The story is he was told to keep his movements down because people in certain countries would not like it if he moved as much as he normally did. Thanks for this, & look forward to Burning Love from Greensboro, North Carolina in '72 when you can.
