I'll be there. Taking my 25 year old son, who has never seen Elvis in concert before (and is not neccesarily very familiar with him, other than hearing me playing Elvis in the car).

I'm very excited about it. Wish I was going to the opening night too, but shouldn't be greedy :D .

Cool placement to post this here daily on the day of show SP! LAST NIGHT was amazing. I am going out on a safe limb here. I believe he will open with the number one song upon the list nightly now that I think upon it

For anyone attending tonight, please post what time Elvis came onstage and what time he finished. I’m trying to figure out parking/transportation for tomorrow and it would be helpful to know what he did the night before.

(A lot of the nearby garages close at 11pm and I don’t wanna have to leave before it’s over to get the car!)

Loads of FREE parking on many neighboring streets after 7 p.m. I paid the small $4 and left my car 6 p.m. believe me....you will NOT need a garage. Oh, he hit the stage about 815 last night

Wow, a lot of rarely played favourites of mine on that setlist.
Last Boat Leaving!
Battered Old Bird!
My Little Blue Window!
Dirty Rotten Shame!
Any Kings Shilling!
Heathen Town!
Home Is Anywhere You Hang Your Head!

Can anyone who was there confirm if the listing of that song as Deportees Club rather than Deportees signifies that it was played like the Christy Moore version rather than the arrangement on the Goodbye Cruel World album?

Hey Death...I wasn't there but pondered the same. I imagine the quieter DEPORTEE rather than the CLUB considering the solo setting. Yet, the night before he assuredly banged out ANGRY in its full band version all alone. My simple solution was to check the wiki. They have it there under the DEPORTEE banner.

Another fantastic, mind blowing show! I can’t believe I have 8 to go at the Gramercy and three more right after that. Incredible!
