Re: August 12 1956 New Orleans ????
no, not New orleans.
Not sure where, would have to look around a little. The tell-tale clue here is the microphones and stands
http://scottymoore.net/neworleansmuni.html
It could be from the same show as this
which might be Daytona or Orlando (if its August, 56)

Re: August 12 1956 New Orleans ????
it is a similar mic to the the one used in May of 56 at Ellis but not exactly (see how the cable protrudes down out of the mic base on the stand as opposed to straight out at Ellis). I don't believe the Jords performed there then with him either

A big clue is the background in the photo.

Re: August 12 1956 New Orleans ????
This is a similar microphone but its not from the same venue as either of the initial two. This one I believe might be at the Fair Park Auditorium in Lubbock, April 10, 1956
http://www.scottymoore.net/lubbock.html Sorry, I've got no other photos on my computer that match all the criteria (mic, clothes, curtains). Ellis is about the closest but I think the Jords rule that out, the closed curtains in second pic rules that out. Hopefully Brian or Ger can shed some light
(He used the same kind of mics in Hawaii in 61 also but that's not it)

Re: August 12 1956 New Orleans ????
Sorry for being late to the discussion. Just been on a short visit to wonderful wonderful Copenhagen (Denmark) to watch an Elvis-show.
Anyway, the photo is definitely 1956. The Jordanaires rule out everything prior to May 1956 as they didn't go on tour with Elvis until then and Elvis' hair and guitar rule out everything after the August tour.
I can't seem to find any photos from Daytona Beach on the August tour. Anybody?? The microphone doesn't fit any of the other shows on this tour.
Working our way backwards the next tour is in late June. Here I have no photos from the following cities: Atlanta, Savannah and Augusta.
On the early June tour it could be San Diego.
Then we come to the May tour and here we have 5 more possibilities:
St. Paul, Springfield, Wichita, Des Moines and Columbus.
This is as far as I can nail it down at this point. It's a shame we can't see which ring Elvis wears on his left hand because that would have helped a great deal.
Ohh by the way. James, the photo you believe is from Lubbock. You're right about that.
Sincerely
Brian

When I was a child I was a dreamer,
I read comic books and I was the hero of the comic book
And I saw movies and I was the hero in the movie
So every dream I´ve ever dreamed has come true a hundred times.

You can probably rule out San Diego. I wouldn't expect that they had curtains like that (if any) in the Arena.bripet56 wrote:Sorry for being late to the discussion. Just been on a short visit to wonderful wonderful Copenhagen (Denmark) to watch an Elvis-show.

No, wait, you can't rule it out. I just checked the video from keiths site from the April show and the mics are similar and possbilbly the curtains. Not sure what else might be from the June show but the mics were probably the same

Re: August 12 1956 New Orleans ????
Well James, I must admit that I had actually ruled out San Diego already.
The piece where the cord connects to the microphone looks too different. We can also rule out Augusta on the June tour as Elvis wore a dark-coloured shirt on that show.
