Today, on 28 April in Elvis History

The Colonel had arranged for Elvis to play a special matinee show for teenagers who for one dollar not only got to see Elvis but were served one soft drink as well.

Elvis arrived in Los Angeles and checked into the penthouse apartment and the presidential suit of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel with Gene and Junior Smith, George Klein, Arthur Hooton and Bitsy Mott. The band remained at the downtown Knickerbocker Hotel.

Recording continued from 12:30 p.m. to 11:03 p.m. But due to new union rules regarding length of sessions and prescribed breaks it was not an successful session and arrangements were made to continue the following week at Radio Recorders where Elvis had always felt more at home.

During Elvis' stay at home, movies were screened at the Crosstown Theater almost every night.

Rumors of Elvis' imminent marriage appeared in the press just as members of the wedding party began to assemble in Palm Springs.

Elvis performed at the Coliseum, Spokane, Washington at 3:00 and 8:00 p.m.

Elvis performed at the Civic Center Arena, Lakeland, Florida.

Elvis performed at the Brown County Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
