Avenged Sevenfold - The Wicked End

The cold, rainy weather matched the mood of Elvis, who until the last minute hoped for a miracle. His longing was in stark contrast to the enthusiasm and ease of Tom Parker. He proudly read an encouraging telegram from the Governor of Tennessee and directed the entire ceremony as a real circus entertainer, so that in the end Elvis was annoyed that he was shown to the crowd like a bear at the fair. His fear of being alone in the army was so palpable that one of his friends, Lamar Fayk, even asked to be taken into the army too. The military rejected his request: why did they need a recruit weighing 140 pounds, and Presley, a conscript, got on the bus with other conscripts and went to the Kennedy Veterans Hospital, where he had a medical examination 14 months ago.
