Isn't everything after 12:00 AM considered the next day thus May 13 being the right date?

The 3 am show took place in the morning hours from May 12 (Sat) to May 13th (mother`s day, Sun). According to your understanding it belongs to May 12.
I might be wrong, though when the show took place in the morning from May 13 (Sun) to May 14 (Mon).
Not sure why you are asking me this question, as my view is very consistent on this.

The show in question is the third in a row on what we might call one business day for Elvis.

Only for the first one is Elvis actually on stage on May 12th, but all belong to that business day.

People were in Lake Tahoe on a Saturday night to see Elvis, and those who did not get in for the first two performances that evening were able to see him for the extra-added third performance.

Saturday, May 12, 1973 Dinner Show
Saturday, May 12, 1973 Midnight Show
Saturday, May 12, 1973 Special "3AM Show"


Give the hard-core fan some credit for actually being able to understand this.
I am asking you, John because I wanted to show that you are not the only one who is consistent. And it also shows that I am not alone....otherwise FTD had dated the show May 12, 1973 3 am... :wink: ..and all import labels, too which released the concert as May 13, 1973 3 am...


Thanks to Ernst Joergensen, Roger Semon and Erik Rasmussen for the great work. Keep the spirit alive !
