Cantou bonitinho Billy, That's All Right Mama.
Elvis quando cantou aí, arrasou, arrebentou, incendiou tudo....
Nasceu para ser Elvis Triunfal...
So love. So beautiful.....
Another cool video, love that this stadium has basically stayed the same. Don't find that everyday anymore. This stadium seems to have all kinds of history to it. How fun! I would have loved to seen Elvis play anywhere. I was 17 when he passed, so only been driving for a short while, but boy, would have loved to gone and seen him somewhere. Loved seeing the stadium from the air, so nice was the view. Can't wait for part 2. Thanks Billy!
I love this 👍🏻😎
I pretty young then! I never saw Elvis in person
what a beautiful field!!!
Привет! Всё отлично! Прекрасно! Превосходно! Супер! Классно! Люкс! Интересно и познавательно! Ты молодец! Пока!
That Fleming Stadium is amazing. It's wonderful when you get to see such old important structures still standing, and operating. I'm really big on preserving old places for histories sake. Hey, good work on those areal shots too, Billy. Really enjoyed this one.
As always, Elvis history learned here today.! Fleming Stadium still looks amazing. TY So much Spa guy for all your time and effort you put into getting this videos out there for all us Elvis fans to see. God Bless.
Wow cool.... so would love to go back in time and would millions of others 😁👍🙏SpaGuy
Spa Guy I really want to come and check out some of the places Elvis played at . Also want to visit Graceland. I wish i had the privilege of seeing him in concert. I just a kid when he died and don't live in the U.S. But next year im coming to visit Graceland. Can't wait. Thanks for sharing Spa Guy. Love Elvis❤
Hi Billy 😊 Enjoyed video today, thanks 😊 for sharing! Your friend Bonnie
Fantastico, la traduzione in italiano , l aspettavo da tanto Grazie mille
From the outside it looks pretty much like it would have been in Elvis time and it's easy to imagine him playing there. You'd think they'd be something there to say Elvis played there it's not like anyone bigger would have done. All these places are historic to us.
Man that is so dang cool
You’re great Billy as always, I love your detective work.
EMOCIONANTE. Saber que ele esteve nesse lugar .
Verdade Nausica ! Deve ser emocionante 🙏 👏👏
Thanks Billy
Love all these places you go Spa Guy. I could picture Elvis out there doing his concert. Thank you for all the work you do to show us these historic places.
Another great episode!
Como siempre, genial 👏👏👏admiro lo que hacéis, la gente se piensa que es sencillo, no entiendo de todo esto, pero imagino que detrás de todos estos vídeos hay mucho trabajo, fantástico 👏👏👏
Your in my hometown!!! This is cool!
That stadium is very well maintained for its age. It's not falling apart or destroyed like a lot of places are Elvis has been to. They should put a plake their so people know Elvis was there. Thanks to the guy for letting you in there and, thanks to you for sharing this. I'd like to see where he ate at that got cut off too. Maybe the next video.
Stand by for Part#2..
Spa Guy That's what I thought and, will be waiting for it. Thanks.
Will be over there soon I’m gonna check this out!
Thanks love your videos 🥰
Ah Spa Guy, I haven’t seen a stadium like that since I was a kid! My gosh. Did you catch the wooden planks in the stands? And yes, I can imagine Elvis down there, shaking that leg of his! Cool 😎👍👍Thanks Spa Guy👏👏👏👏
Nice one Billy. I always learn something new...
I'm so glad you researched and found out about Elvis' play dates in Wilson. And, thank you for doing it. My sister saw him at the high school (Charles L. Coone High School) and will probably remember him playing the stadium. I'll send her the link to this video. I'm sure she'll get a big kick out of seeing it and will appreciate the little trip down memory lane you've provided. Thank you again. BTW: When you get out to California again you might check out Lake Tahoe. Elvis played Sahara Tahoe at least once a year. It was usually August September in Las Vegas then Las Vegas again around February, Tahoe in May and traveling the country the rest of the time. In between he divided his time between Graceland, the house on Monovale and the house in Palm Springs. Anyway, I saw a lot of wonderful shows in Tahoe and it is another piece of the Elvis puzzle. :)
Wow Cool you got to see Elvis out there.. The next Episode on Thursday I will go inside Charles Coon I would Love to hear her memories of seeing him there..
Nice work Billy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ maybe you should meet Billy Strawn as well ? It would be interesting..
Great video Billy. That big guy is Paul Bunyan. 👊✌
I bet those girls was screaming their heads off and saying I'll kiss your boo boo's... lol ! I'd loved to have been there that night .
very cool Spa Guy!
great video Billy
Awesome thank you! Gonna watch part 2!
Hey Billy aka spa guy,I had always been told that a flat bed transfer truck trailer was used for that show for Elvis and the rest ,when I was in high school our glee club performed on the same stage Elvis had performed at Charles L.Coon school,later saw Elvis at Greensboro Coliseum,Greensboro N.C. June 30th 1976.
As soon as the into reads "Video series" I'm stoked :) I know there is more coming. Love the vid SG. Awesome stadium and story. Ready for more!
thank you spa guy in joy watch ur vids ............jy
one of my favorite places in N.C. Some friends went to Atlantic Christian College , now known as Barton College in Wilson ...
I was born there. Raised in Elm City, just down the road.
Copas, P Cline, Elvis related here... can't wait for pandemic BS to end so we can meet, im busting at the seams to spill the beans!

Awesome
Spa Guy
This is exactly 19 miles from my house. Elvis had also eaten at a burger joint in my town of Rocky Mount NC. The place was owned by a family friend of ours, Arthur Pitt. The place was called the Pitt Stop on S Church St. Not sure of the year but assumed it was in the 70s. Not sure how old the restaurant was. He came in and ordered about 6 hamburgers with everything and sat down by himself and ate them all. I was eating here in 1977 when it came over the radio that he had passed away. I was 8 years old. I had been a big Elvis fan since I was 3 years old.
Why would Elvis be in Rocky Mount in the 70's that would be my question.. Also Elvis rarely went anywhere by himself.. I would doubt the story based on those two things alone..
@@SpaGuy he was with others and it may not have been the 70s. I just assumed that it was. He was, from the story that was told to me, enroute to a concert. The others stayed outside while he went in. I was young when I was told this. I don't truly remember all the details. It could have occurred in the 50s. To get to Wilson, you would have to travel US301 back in those days and that would be Church St in Rocky Mount during that time. The burger joint was on 301, so it is possible. Wish I remembered all the details.
"Spa" always reminds me to Spa mineral water from Belgium :)
I love that water.. I drank tons of it when I was in Europe..
@@SpaGuy Cheers man :)
Hi, cool
Cool place now I'm guessing that fence wasn't outside out there at the time Elvis was there but if not it's still cool place thanks for sharing the video really appreciate it
Thank you again 😊😘
Very cool video spa guy. I wonder if anyone has photos of the concert ?
I couldn't find any but maybe someone local will watch this and reach out..
This is Matthew Todd, I am currently contacting some older Wilson friends whose parents went to this show. Also, my dear Mom is now a Spa Guy Subscriber. Thank You, Spa Guy!!
Fantastic video! I search every day for new ones. Hey spa guy, I found something interesting last night tied to Elvis. Goggle Jordan the lion #1334. Then google Sam Kinison on tonight show doing Elvis. I thought hilarious. Love ya, Vicky from Great State of Texas🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Elvis worked hard for the Money
Wow I live in Goldsboro, which is about 30 miles from there. And $1.25 per ticket?!? lol
I just did some quick calculations and September 14 Wednesday was in 1955 and Elvis would have been 20 years young
My Father was from Greenville SC.
Louisiana
Wouldn't the sound technology have been pretty primitive in 1955? Seems like they would have to set the stage close to the grand stands in order to be heard. Anybody know?
I may still have pictures that my dad had. He lived on Arrington Ave which is right there at Fleming. He attend Coon as well.
I'd like to see them if you do..billy@thesgnetwork.com
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Elvis played at the Chisca hotel, have you any videos on it at all.
Enjoy watching all your videos thank you🇬🇧
I have fled at the Chisca but never put any of it out.. I am working on a larger story that includes it.. I made release it alone though you never know..
Only reason I ask was reading Jerry Schillings book, it says he snuck into the hotel to watch Elvis playing, I think it was in the basement area ?
Elvis played in Suffolk!!!!!
I cant find anywhere that he ever played in Suffolk
Congrats you found the Easter Egg he played September 15 Roanoke, VA..
Wonder how many people were in line to see the show back then. I’m sure people came from neighboring towns.
Incredible it is but I wanted to see where he ate? Wahhhhhaaaaa
Part #2 coming Thursday..
Spa guy as a child was a huge Elvis fan. As I grew up Fleerwood mac. Through your videos now totally Elvis fan through your videos. I want to come for first time Augest 15 for 4 days. Going fly from DFW. GRACE ALREADY BOOKED. FOR AUG. 15. OVER PRICED. WHERE IS THE HOTEL THAT HOLDS ELVIS CON? WANT TO SEE ALL SIGHTS YOU HAVE SHOWN US. WANT TO MEET YOU BILLY SMITH AND JOE PLUS MEMPHIS Mafia kids. So what hotel is it located in?🇺🇸VB
💕👍
Come watch coffee talk with adika tomorrow 10 am ct. 11am et, 8am pt and see Billy Stallings live maybe ask a question
Awesome, hope you were able to get some Bills BBQ.
I got some Sam Jones..
Do you still repo spas ? I like those videos too
I retired from moving tubs..
So this would have been on Louiasanna hayride tours...?
Opry Tours..
That was concerning how Elvis fell down…did he fall off the stage? I heard while filming one of his movies, he also was pushed away by a co-star in her trailer across a table and hurt his back one time. I don’t recall the details other than he was a bit frisky and she wasn’t having it. Seems she realized he had gotten hurt and tried to help him up but he told her to leave him lie there for a bit till he managed to get up on his own. I’m wondering how he injured his lower back as his autopsy showed a slipped disc at L4. Of course with all the rough skating, football and karate it could have been caused by numerous of injuries sustained! Makes me say wonder though.
Too bad no audio or video of these Fleming stadium shows
I am hoping someone comes up with at least pics but nothing yet..
He also did 3 other shows in Wilson NC from 1956 hopefully someday ATLEAST the audio will surface or super 8 footage. Time will tell.
You should try to get in contact with Linda Hood sigmon she lives somewhere in North Carolina I believe
