Ahhhhhhh! Might just be rehearsals for the upcoming shows, but that lovely tangled board of wires seems to say otherwise? Certainly makes me understand how much I miss the guy(s).

I must admit my first instincts on the photos were that they were from rehearsals, but as it’s Elvis you have to expect the unexpected.

Elvis has certainly been busy on twitter lately with posting all of those Hollywood star pictures.

I hope they were rehearsing a lot of new songs!

Am praying to the gods of music for a new album! Let it be! Looks like the approach is consciously analogue.

Yes, with all those Hollywood star sidewalk pics, was hoping for MOMOFUKU part 2 ten years later. Then, i was thinking, perhaps rehearse time before original 2/28 Vegas start date. BUT, THEY DO NOT NEED REHEARSAL. So, let me return to hoping for the quickly recorded magnificent joy of another momofuku long player indeed.

Hmm... I think all the postings of Hollywood stars suggest that perhaps he's going to join some of his heroes and heroines in having a paving stone of his own? Maybe?

Yeah, what is up with the Hollywood star posts. Did his kids take over his Twitter account? Sort of wild and totally random. Must be hitting the tourist circuit pretty hard in LA or something.

The Pink Floyd reference makes me Google 'Pink Floyd' and ' Los Angeles recording studio' and I get this

If you look at the “Boulevard Recording” website and take the Studio Tour, you see the same Wurlitzer as seen on Elvis’s tweets.

Boulevard Recording is almost surely where EC and the gang have been the past few days. It's located just a few blocks from one end of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which EC has been tweeting photos of all week.

I wouldn't necessarily bet on any recordings coming out the this, though. More likely it was a rehearsal session planned to be just before the since-canceled Las Vegas run.

Elvis started tweeting photos from the Walk of Fame on February 19.
Do they need that much rehearsing?

Steve Nieve posted a photo on Facebook Wednesday afternoon of his reserved parking space at United Recording, which isn't far from Boulevard.

EC recorded Mighty Like a Rose and Painted From Memory and parts of King of America and Spike at United when it was called Ocean Way.

I guess that depends upon what new and new old songs they are looking to play.

This reminds a little too much of the build-up for American Tune last July. I bet you it is a vinyl-only single for Record Store Day in April.

Though, I can't tell you how much I dream of an Elvis album. 5 years since a collaborative album, 8 since a full solo album!!

If Steve was driving ENOUGH DAYS to have a reserved parking space, I'M BETTING ON AN ENTIRE L.P.
