If he were alive, Elvis would be in his seventies and would most likely be amazed at all the stories about him circling the country. Rumors and gossip reached the new heights by adding all possible conspiracy theories - from an empty casket to extraterrestrial involvement. An army of impersonators seem to spread these stories around for publicity and advertising reasons. It is a sure bet that any tv program or show about Las Vegas will have Presley’s song or a short tune in it.

I wish there would be simple answer, why people just don’t let Elvis rest in peace. His former fans - baby boomers, have already retired or in the process of retiring. I don’t think that they are the ones who perpetuate the stories about undead Elvis Presley. Generations of talented musicians that came after him, respect the “king”, but don’t spread the rumors either. Except, maybe, the guy from Oasis who claimed in 2007 that he was drowning but Elvis Presley saved him.
