Questo è il primo tour dell’anno e parte con una certa confusione. Il pianista Glen D. Hardin ha dato le dimissioni e viene sostituito da Shane Keister, il pianista della session di Nashville.
Il chitarrista James Burton e il batterista Ronnie Tutt hanno comunicato che anche loro vogliono andarsene e Tutt viene rimpiazzato dal batterista di Nashville, Larrie Londin, mentre, alla fine, James Burton decide di rimanere.

Normalmente, il culmine dello show, è quando Elvis canta “Hurt” “How Great Thou Art” “You Gave Me A Mountain” e “America The Beautiful” ed occasionalmente con “You’ll Never Walk Alone”. In questo show, questi pezzi forti, sono eseguiti con mancanza di interesse e, sia ai fans che alla stampa, Elvis appare “confuso” e che dimentica spesso le parole.

Con questo concerto Elvis apre un tour di 11 giorni con un compenso di $ 315.000 per fare aggiungere uno show alle 22 nei fine settimana, quindi il venerdì e il sabato dovrà fare due concerti a sera.
Durante questo concerto, John O’ Grady, l’investigatore privato con cui Elvis ha rapporti sin dal 1970, va a trovare Elvis e racconta “Mi sono sentito così preoccupato per lui, che ho pianto. Era grasso. Aveva dei blocchi motori che non gli permettevano di camminare…. Ho veramente pensato che stesse per morire”.
A seguito di questa esperienza O’ Grady e il legale di Elvis a Los Angeles, Ed Hookstratten, discuteranno la possibilità di far entrare Elvis in un programma di disintossicazione presso la Scripps Clinic di San Diego, ma la cosa non ha mai avuto un seguito.

07-06-1976
Elvis arriva a Memphis nel primo pomeriggio e per le prossime settimane, passa la maggior parte del suo tempo chiuso in camera sua, incontrando raramente qualcuno, fatto salvo per Billy Smith e sua moglie Jo e naturalmente Lisa Marie, che è a Graceland, per stare 10 giorni con suo padre

12-06-1976
L’album From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee" è al 29° posto della classifica in U.K.

16-06-1976
Per il Colonnello è diventato estremamente difficile mettersi in contatto con Elvis e pertanto, decide di scrivergli, con toni quasi disperati “Come ho detto oggi a Vernon, da quando sono tornato, non sono stato contattato da nessuno, che sia Sonny o chiunque altro del tuo staff. Nel caso tu pensassi che sono in contatto con me, sappi che non lo sono”.
Joe Esposito vive in California. Lamar Fike lavora e vive a Nashville. Jerry Schilling se n’è andato e il rapporto tra Elvis e i cugini West è diventato molto distante, probabilmente a causa delle numerose cause legali aperte contro le guardie del corpo di Elvis, ma molto dipende anche dall’atmosfera piena di sospetti e sfiducia che ora regna all’interno del gruppo.
