43 Kelly street
212 Oakland hill Avenue

These two are the ones he never lived.

3764 Highway 51 South was the name before it was changed into Elvis Presley Boulevard.

Another question:
Which actress (it does not have to be a leading role) played a role in the most Elvis pictures?

Ho, ho, ho, not so fast dear Colonel. Your answer was expected but not proven right. Shelley is known for playing the leading role next to Elvis in three movies: "Girl Happy", "Spinout" and "Clambake".

But what about Teri Garr? Although she didn't play a leading role she was cast in five Elvis movies: "Fun In Acapulco", "Viva Las Vegas", "Kissin' Cousins",
"Roustabout" and "Clambake". Mostly as a bit or a show dancer.

For those who do not know Teri Garr, she played opposite John Denver in the 1977 movie "Oh God!" She also played a major role in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".

Now for the answer to your next question:

Airbus 110
Boeing 707

the answer is right; the sale of the Boeing 707 was cancelled.

the next question is easy:

in which state(s) of the U.S. Elvis never performed between 1969 and 1977?

I would like to get back on the musical instruments question: Elvis did play bass. He did the bass line on "Baby I Don't Care". He also played bass during the jam session with the Beatles when they visited him in 1965.

hello leroy

your right about the bass; I always thought it was the bass guitar but according to Tunzi recording sessions it was bass indeed.
about the informal jam with the beatles I did not know because there are not much details known about these visit.


about the hotel question:

the farmer's inn and lincoln inn were the wrong answers.
the netherland hotel was used 25-06-77 when Elvis switch to this hotel because in the hotel were he was staying the airconditioning was not working good.
he was there too at other visits in Cincinnati.

as you can see with this questioning you can learn a lot about our hero.


the next question is difficult again:

which name(s) was not a member of the Joe Guercio orchestra in the early 70's:

John Kennedy;
George Bush;
Bill Clinton;
Marty Harrell;
Dennis Good;
Harold Lieberman;

bill clinton is not only the (ex) president of the USA but the name of a musician too.
george bush was easy to recognize as a false name, but john kennedy don't excists as a musician of this orchestra.

as I'm going out now with my wife within a short time I 'm not able to make a new question but I do tomorrow.

some scenes on location in Fort Lauderdale were filmed in Girl happy.
interior shots were filmed at MGM.

i'll start myself with:
1) horses - Elvis like horse riding (movies - Graceland etc)

Monkeys - Elvis's pet monkey was called Scatter. He treat it like part of the family and it even wore clothes and a nappy! It sat at the dining table with a knife and fork.
It died of cirrhoisis of the liver after developing a liking of bourbon which Elvis was said to have taught him along with pinching ladies bottoms (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
