Current Song Lineup

The 2006 show will have a dynamic song program similar to that of previous tours, although adjustments in repertoire do occur from tour to tour and production values of the presentation will get a real boost, including the use of Elvis footage camera loads not used on previous tours. Also, for the first time the show will be accompanied by a small exhibit of Elvis costumes and other concert-related items from the Graceland archives. The exhibit will be in the lobby area of each venue and will not have an admission fee.

The Elvis performance footage comes from these programs: the Elvis (a.k.a. the '68 Comeback) television special, the 1973 Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii, via Satellite television special, and the MGM concert films Elvis, That's the Way It Is (1970) and Elvis on Tour (1972). In parentheses after each song is an indication of which program the Elvis performance comes from.

All our singers and musicians play live. The Elvis performance footage is presented with virtually all the sound removed but for Elvis's voice. The only pre-recorded music you hear in our show is Elvis Presley's voice and what small amounts of the original accompanying music could not be removed from the Elvis performance material.
