31st December 1975 was a historic show in many ways for Elvis and his fans. This was the first time that Elvis had performed on New Years Eve show since 1955 and this show would become the highest attended Elvis concert EVER!
There were some problems with the stage set up that Elvis wasnt happy with, such as the TCB band and Orchestra being on a different level to him and the sound system set up being atrocious. The most noticeable when they were performing My Way and Elvis had to stop half way through as he couldnt hear the band and got lost on the timing. He also didnt know the lyrics to the song Auld Lang Syne and mumbled along with the crowd at midnight.
There was also an unfortunate incident while performing Polk Salad Annie when Elvis ripped his pants and had to leave the stage to change his jumpsuit. He came on stage wearing the Rainfall suit but when he split his pants he went to change into the V-Neck suit with Puff Sleeves while J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet performed Sweet Sweet Spirit. Just before the end of the show the 60,000 plus in the Pontiac Silver dome that night were treated to an excerpt of Wooden Heart.
