October 28, 1957:
Elvis performed at the Pan Pacific Auditorium in Los Angeles, California, and outraged not only the press, but also an audience filled with Hollywood celebrities and their children.
The headlines declared: Elvis Presley Will Have to Clean Up His Show Or Go To Jail.
Even the Colonel was warned about consequences, but Elvis remained unfazed. He just said: “If I don’t dance tonight, maybe I don’t have to take a shower tonight.”

Ann-Margret at Radio Recorders in Hollywood where she was introduced to Elvis Presley for the first time before filming Viva Las Vegas, July 1963.
“Except for a piano, the MGM soundstage where Elvis and I met was empty. In the background, a few of his guys hung around observing their boss, a ritual I would soon come to expect. Under the watchful gaze of director George Sidney, a studio photographer snapped shots of what the film company executives figured would be a historic moment.
“‘Elvis Presley, I’d like you to meet a wonderful young lady, Ann-Margret,’ said George Sidney. ‘Ann-Margret, this is Elvis Presley.’ The significance was lost on Elvis and me. I reached out my hand and he shook it gently. ‘I’ve heard a lot about you,’ we said at the same time, which made us laugh and broke the ice.”

Events In The History And Of The Life Of Elvis Presley Today On The 28th Of October in 1957.
Elvis Presley Pan Pacific Auditorium, Los Angeles On October The 28th, In 1957 (First Show).
In his first show at the Pan Pacific Auditorium, Elvis Presley was determined to impress his celebrity-studded audience, and he did. With Hollywood celebrities and their children among the more than nine thousand in attendance, Elvis Presley performed eighteen songs ending with 'Hound Dog'.
Throughout Elvis Presley's performance that night, a three-foot tall replica of Nipper, RCA's trademark, sat at one side of the stage. Concluding the show with 'Hound Dog' Elvis Presley grabbed Nipper around the neck (Pictures below) with his left arm and lifted him from the floor, eventually lying on the floor while continuing to sing into the microphone in his right hand.
The audience went wild but the newspapers the following day took a different view - As often happened at Elvis Presley concerts in the fifties, eyewitnesses saw the same stage events differently as they were filtered through predetermined prejudices, both for and against Elvis Presley
At a party in his hotel suite after the show, Elvis Presley met Ricky Nelson, while hosting entertainers Nick Adams, Carol Channing, Sammy Davis Jr and Tommy Sands. Nick Adams and Sammy Davis Jr entertained the guests with impressions. Elvis Presley's date for the evening was Anne Neyland. rare b/w candids of elvis presley speaking to LA journalist's reporters and backstage and performing at this show concert taken by fans audience members.
