[Bill Hemmer, Cnn Anchor:] While tens and thousands gather in L.A. this week, thousands also will gather in Memphis, Tennessee. They are paying tribute to the king there: Elvis Presley. Todd Morgan, creative services director of Graceland, has met a lot of folks who have come to town year after year. He joins us by telephone now from Memphis. Sir, good morning to you.
[Todd Morgan, Creative Resources Director, Graceland:] Good morning.
[Hemmer:] Tell us about this week. When will things really kick into gear, and how many do you expect?
[Morgan:] We have been in high gear all week, several days now, and the excitement keeps building.
[Hemmer:] The folks who come by there, what's interesting about these people? I'd imagine, based on the videotape we see from year to year, including what we are watching right now, is that they get quite involved?
[Morgan:] They do. Elvis's fans are very broadbased, it is all ages, all backgrounds, all parts of the world, yet they all seem like one big family. It is thousands of good friends, not thousands of strangers.
[Hemmer:] Anything new or unique about this year, Todd?
[Morgan:] Well, a lot of good stuff going on. Big news for us was the launch of our all-new Web site design: elvis-presley.com.
[Hemmer:] I think we have that actually. We will pull that up. And, as we do, why don't you keep on talking about that, Todd?
[Morgan:] A lot of Elvis's fans and admirers are on-line, and we are encouraging all of them to get hooked up, because it is a way to stay in touch with us and with Elvis fans all over the world, every day forever. And we have got lots of new features, and lots of new design and content, streaming video, lots more music and photography, and just everything that you could imagine. And we will just be increasing that content exponentially from now on, now that we have got this new platform. And a historic first for us will be tomorrow night, when we do the first ever live, vigil-cast on our Web site. We are going to take people all over the world live to the candlelight vigil from 8:45 p.m. Central time until 11:00. And it will be a chance for people all over the world to be here in a way.
[Hemmer:] All right, Todd Morgan, have a good week, OK?
[Morgan:] Thank a lot.
[Hemmer:] Best of luck to you. The first e-week for Elvis, meaning electronic. Todd, thanks.
