Happy
new (Elvis-) Year to all of you!
Let's start the new year with Elvis, all right?
Praytome Publishing proudly presents the teaser
trailer for the upcoming Bud Glass Productions'
project "Dixieland Delight - A Memorial Day
Weekend With The King".
During the research an unbelievable amount of pictures
and information surfaced. Of course, the Huntsville
shows - 5 performances in a row in a single venue,
that was even more than everybody expected and topped
the Madison Square Garden record with 4 shows in
a row.
This Huntsville event was even so spectacular that
the TV station's reporter team shoot pro-footage
to cover this moment. The producers of "Dixieland
Delight" not only only traced down the reporter
but also the complete footage. But have yourself
a look at the trailer, there is so much to discover
that the previously announced book / DVD release
can not represent the event in its entirety. Therefor
you can expect something that is really different
from anything you have ever seen before...

Finally
- just in time for the Christmas Holidays we have
a special gift for you. Oh no, wait - to be exact,
there are two gifts in all.
The
first one:
Praytome Publishing proudly presents the Trailer
for "Elvis live at Del Webb's Sahara Tahoe
- World's Best Kept Secret" by author Sue McCasland
and collector Joseph A. Krein.
When in 2003 the first Elvis book trailer (Elvis
- Behind The Image) ever was released we at
Praytome Publishing didn't have a single clue that
from then on, the Elvisworld would expect with every
new release an accompanying trailer. We even receive
emails in case the product is released but the trailer
is not available.. how cool is that ?

Uhhm,
yes.. we told you about a 2nd gift... what is it ? Do
you really want to know ? Well, it is:
Dixieland Delight - A Memorial Day Weekend with the
King
More than 2 years ago when we announced this project
in our "Elvis
Presley - Paternity Suit" release. Since then
the complete project changed, changed, changed because
we obtained more and more material for this production.
Author Bud Glass came up with a special idea of presenting
this unique event in a very special way. It will be
something very uncommon and different from any other
product that Praytome Publishing has released in the
past. Being released in 2009 we will celebrate this
special project starting
JANUARY 01, 2009 - MIDNIGHT
By then, the Teaser-Trailer will give you an idea of
what this is all about. Start the new year 2009 with
Elvis - Dixieland Delight. So be sure to check out this
website. |

06, 2008 - Part 4 of the "Making Of"
|
|
sd

In
the 4th part of the "Making Of" there
is a surprising moment for author Sue McCasland.
When she left the Praytome Publishing office for
several minutes a special VIP guest sneaked in and
sat down on the chair where normally designer Regina
Wiegand is sitting. Because Sue had met the VIP
guest only 6 months ago in the U.S. the face was
familiar to her and when she returned to the office
it took some seconds for her to realize what just
had happened. Of course, the surprising moment has
been captured on candid camera.
See who came around: It's Ed Bonja, who wrote the
foreword for the Tahoe book and was the photographer
for Elvis being in charge of most of the LP Cover
shots from the 1970's.
There's a lot of fun and soon everybody realized
that Ed not only came around to say "hi"
but will stay for several days. Have a look at the
video yourself...
In
the next few days the 5th part of the "Making
Of" will be available on this website. So stay
tuned!
