Takin' Care of Business: The Elvis Cruise

Has it really been three decades since Elvis "left the building" for the last time? Fiercely loyal fans can still recount where they were when they heard the untimely news.

To relive those decades old memories, not to mention some of the hottest music sounds ever recorded, The Elvis Cruise sets sail on August 30th aboard Carnival's "Fun Ship" Celebration from Jacksonville, Florida.

Hosted by long-time Elvis friend Jerry Schilling, the cruise features a theme-within-a-theme. To explore the phases of Elvis’ life and career, shows will focus on Memphis, Aloha, Vegas, Gospel, and Gold. Performers include a full roster of talented artists, highlighted by members of Elvis' own TCB Band and The Jordonaires, backup vocalists for a number of Elvis Presley’s hit singles.

Sanctioned by Elvis Presley Enterprises, The Elvis Cruise is produced by Jazz Cruises, LLC, the world's foremost producer of music cruises, with six full ship music charters which sail each year. The Elvis Cruise is also a full ship charter and has nearly sold out--if you want to join them, act quickly and call 1-800-704-3034. Mention "Graceland" to receive a special discount.

Unable to sail this year? No problem, The Elvis Cruise is scheduled to become an annual event. Watch for details and plan to join Elvis fan-atics at sea.
