Can't say I'm an Elvis fan, but shit, even I would visit Graceland if I knew you were there. Keep the photos coming. I love seeing you doing your own thing.

I love Elvis's music he is the King. (I think.) That place was state of the art in that time period. What didn't he have 4 tv's to watch all the games on? And... he loved his Mama. Super Sweet!!

I went to Graceland back in the mid 90's. It is such a fond memory and it is when I realized, " Gee! Elvis was wild!"

We went there last weekend for the first time (although we didn't get to go IN the Jungle Room). Way better then I expected. They did a great job. The gravesites are very special. TCB baby!

The home of the king... :) I got to meet Elvis when he filmed "Stay Away Joe" in my home town. I think I was 9. I'll never forget it though, he was so nice to me. :) I had my first real crush right then and there. Thank you for sharing the pictures!!

This is the jungle room. I went on a road trip with my two best girlfriends when we were 19. Stopped at Graceland. You are so right it is cool. I have the same pictures, we stayed at the back of the line and hopped the red ropes to get into these rooms. Wish you were in them with us.

I've always been a big fan of Elvis. I loved playing his music, especially at Christmas time when I'd play his Christmas music while decorating. I would love to go to Graceland. Hopefully someday. Thanks for sharing the pictures. As always ... you are so awesome ... I was very lucky to be on the "Kid Rock's Chillin' The Most Cruise 2010" and speak to you in person. I hope I get this opportunity again. Happy Holidays!

Kid, I have always been a huge Elvis fan. When I'm not listening to E, I'm listening to Kid Rock. People always laugh at this and say they can't be more different but I tell them they are both open to all music and both geniuses. The Jungle Room is my very favorite room at Graceland and I just knew you'd really dig it. This picture makes my day. Your performance at the AMAs was beyond words. Congratulations on another #1 album.

You are blessed and we are all blessed to have you and your wonderful music. Looks like you had a good time, and got to feel the vibe of the King, and now your our King. Congrats on the great job you did at the half time show. Hope you had fun. Can't wait till were on the boat.

That's pretty cool, the KING of Rock welcomed Kid Rock into his home. I welcome the opportunity to be among one of your biggest fans. When you tour Hanks home let me know, I would like to come along. You are one of the BEST as Hank Jr., Shooter, Hank III and all your rowdy friends. When are you and Hank going to do a show in NC together? Stay true............
