Re: Elvis Opening for John Mellencamp - April 9 - SF
I'm not sure what to make of this. There are sites which have Elvis opening other Mellencamp shows in April, such as April 8 in Los Angeles:
http://www.myspace.com/events/View/9819 ... Mellencamp
But Elvis can't be opening April 1 in Grand Prairie, TX, since he's playing in New York that night.

Maybe it's an April Fools prank? Some sites mention a Dylan documentary film as the opener. I could potentially make the 4/10 show if this is a legit gig.

Elvis doesn't seem to be available for the Edmonton show either, since it's been rescheduled for April 17, when Elvis is supposed to be in Australia.

If this is what he cancelled his South American tour for, I'm gonna be pissed.

Unless there have been some recent innovations in air travel, I find it unlikely that EC would be able to play a show in Edmonton on the 16th and be in Fremantle by the 17th for West Bluesfest show.
Not to mention flying back after a Melbourne show on the 21st to make a show in Saskatchewan on the 22nd, then turning around flying back to make his Byron Bay date on the 25th.

EC opening for Johnny Cougar, eh? Well, I guess a precedent of sorts was set when Jimi Hendrix opened for the Monkees way back when....
