Are you sure about Charlotte and Jacksonville being filmed? I know there is stage footage with Elvis in the white fireworks suit and that it was probably shot in Charlotte, but was the whole concert filmed. Regarding Jacksonville, I thought they only shot backstage and documentary footage.

HI Sames 1
For Jacksonville
footage exist from leaving hotel, inside car ,backstage before show, clips during show, leaving the show, to inside car after show
i put fews more infos on the on tour footage next week

HI THE FRIENDS
WE can t continue this topic on Elvis on tour
and keep in silent this Fabulous new cd from Tiangle label
to Hamton Road show
Out soon on the Triangle label is releasing “The Hampton Roads Concert” from April 9, 1972. The sound is digitally remastered and is a lot better than on their previous release “The Greensboro Concert”. It can easily be compared to the best sounding official release around. As for the packaging, this set comes packed in a “paper sleeve” just like the typical 2 lp sets from that period.
It will include a 40 page full color booklet, all about Elvis in 1972 and the documentary “Elvis On Tour”, also included will be a reproduction of the original rare 1972 MGM-pressbook (12 pages) for “Elvis On Tour”. Furthermore the (5 color) picture disc (which is a real cd this time) is packed in a special made innersleeve, with pictures of 23 bootleg vinyl albums containing material from “Elvis On Tour”.

Hi!

April 17th footage from Little Rock was used in the movie (The TH Barton Coliseum is seen). Not sure about the backstage footage with the Burning Love suit, is this also from 17th?
Greetz,
Jos.

HI Polly
I can't help you on this backstage footage
that s right we seen T.H Barton coliseum building
but concerning backstage footage i don t have seen footage of the 2 city
for tell this is from little rock and this from richmond
stage footage is more easy to detect withe color suit of the band auditorium stage and others elements
maybe on this question others specialist can help us
thanks
christian

That s a unseen capture
from little rock we can see video camera on stage
this camera don t appear on original footage movie


thanks to A.C for send me the photos

Great picture Christian. Just one info. In Elvis On Tour they show Elvis in Jacksonville and in Macon too. When Elvis is leaving the hotel is Macon Gerogia. Whe Elvis gets into the car it is Jacksonville.
Macon is from April 15th, 1972.
In the beggining of the film they show scenes from San Antonio, Greensboro and Richmond (Elvis is wearing red) on backstage. Is it really Richmond or Arkansas? After these pictures I really don´t know.

Best Regards
Renan.

HI Renan
not easy to know the band wore the same black suit for this 2 shows,
it s a real puzzle !!
i check again and again and if i m sure i post here
photos from the shows
Richmond

Little rock

Hampton atf is more easy the band is in white suit


christian
ps:the 3 up photos are from "Elvis Presley in concert website"
http://www.elvisconcerts.com/

I really enjoy this puzzle. I will try to find photos and then try to see any difference between these concerts.
Does anybody know if the afternoon Hampton concert was filmed? It would be terrific to watch ELvis singing "Help Me Make It Though The Night" in pro footage!

Best Regards
Renan.

I think this camera and the camera on stage at MSG recorded to film. The camera you can see is a reeltoreel camera with a seperate box to capture what the camera sees onto film.

I do not think as others say that this is a security camera or for VIP's. From my research on other shows from different artists during this period there was no camera on stage so why do it for Elvis and not The Rolling Stones, John Lennon or Led Zeppelin. Also if they have a VIP camera in some arenas why not all?

I have learned a lot about these Reel to reel cameras and I can post some pictures in the other topic on cameras on stage with Elvis where Christian has already taken the time to show us some great things.
