Reply to comment by elvisonaZ1 in Elvis’s first comeback in the Las Vegas live shows. 1968. by Dhorlin

You're absolutely correct, of course. My bad. I didn't fact check the blurb that came with the image. Lesson learned. Thanks for the heads-up. Oh, and great Elvis knowledge.

"He had made a splashy comeback in a widely acclaimed NBC special in December 1968. But he hadn't performed live onstage in more than eight years. So when he opened in Las Vegas on July 31, 1969 — the start of a four-week engagement at the brand new International Hotel".
