Looks Like We Made It

I made it not only to my seat but also to center stage of The Guesthouse at Graceland's stage.

The room is under construction and was off limits to anyone but ...
...let's just say because of Southern hospitality and my perseverance, I made it.
Walked through the doors of the hotel to the theater ,tried the doors, LOCKED.
Went to the front desk and they said the doors are usually open to anyone but since it is under construction it is closed .
I went back over near the theater, entered a banquet room and went back into the employee service hallway.
Ran into a manager and told him the story of the concerts that weren't meant to be and politely asked if I could see the room. He not only obliged but also snapped a few photos.

Now that’s dedication! Dude, that’s exactly the type of thing I’d do, for me anyway to get some closure on a missed opportunity. Love it!

Very kind of the manager to do that for you. Great guy!

Thanks for sharing these images. Seeing these gives me a better picture of what it might have been like if the gig took place.
The whole place looked beautiful on the website.

I was so looking forward to being there last December. I would have been in the center, in the 3rd row the first night; and somewhere in the right hand section the 2nd night

Lucky guy to see all this

and thanks again.

Yes, You think of what coukd have been but you also say a prayer ,or well-wish, and hope that Vinnie can make things happen.
Most importantly, just hope that he is in a good place.

If VV had played there, it would have ben great.
Seeing you there Rick is OUTSTANDING.
You'd instantly know THAT BOYZ GONNA ROCK!
Now that, Rick @ Graceland's stage, I would have purchased a ticket for that.
