    Billy , you were so close to Elvis you should be the go- to person for anything on Elvis, especially for a movie , you should of been Baz's right hand man..I wished they had shown his fun side and kindness in movie and his laugh. He will be loved forever. Bless you for all you do. Merry Christmas to you both and all your family. Love from Michelle, Scotland. x

      @@exdus235 I disagree. The movie wasn’t about Elvis personal life. It was about his music and what he accomplished during segregation.
      Don’t think Billy would have answered or known all the particulars alone.

    Hi Jo and Billy! Unfortunately, I don't do FB, but just found you on Elvis Fans Matter. I, also, watch Danny and Teresa's Memphis Mafia Kid videos. I sure do love hearing anything about Elvis and his family. I wish I grew up in Memphis just to know I'd feel close to him. I will always love Elvis. He's meant so much to me. Miss him very much. The world loved him, too! His songs really set a mood. It was if he was singing only to you. May God bless him forever. God bless your family! Thank you for creating your special channel, too! Love to all!

    Ive watched what seems like 100s of hours of the memphis mafia 5hr documentary on youtube.
    Your story Billy and everyone elses stories are so amazing. Everytime someone tells me a story of being at a Elvis concert its amazing to think you were there backstage!
    Love listening to You, Lamar, Red, Sonny, and Marty talking about elvis the interviews on youtube ‘Memphis mafia Kid’ and all other sources from you and the other members are invaluable.
    I saw one with Red and George on Georges tv channel. Someone had here on youtube.
    He said the youth and future generations would go to the library to see the digital media of the his interview with Red and learn about the life of Elvis.
    How true and its amazing that its all at our fingertips all the documentaries and people who surrounded and were inspired by the qualities Elvis had that propelled him to the top!

      I know all about double cousins..in my family even though it may sound strange it isn't and just happened naturally.. they all went to church together and yes a normal Baptist Church and 3 brothers married 3 sisters so we are all double 1st cousins and of the same bloodline on both sides of our family.. things didn't start getting watered down until the cousins started marrying and having children but even then they all pretty much look alike and now the real 1st cousins so to speak have started to have children but the DNA is strong..lol.. and no there isn't any incest family with family or anything like that for those of you that may not understand. js

    Did Elvis ever use the house at circle G or did he exclusively use the trailers?

    Graceland is more like a museum now which is great for the fans

    Just re watched your movie review videos again. I did not see the movie, but heard positive things about it. I'll have to wait for it to come on tv. I just enjoy your channel so much. It's so real. Thank you for taking the time to share. Donna on my husband's account.
