And yes, I am old enough to remember when this happened and the fallout from it.
There's even a pretty good movie about Jerry Lee, called "GREAT BALLS OF FIRE" ( after one of the songs he was famous for ), that includes the marriage and the mess he found himself in, when he went to the UK, on tour, after the wedding.
Dennis Quaid played Jerry Lee and reminded me of “Reverend Jim”. I hate to say that since Dennis complimented me on a roll he saw me play. He probably felt obligated to say it.
I was living in Memphis when it was filmed. Before filming started I told my wife “Jerry Lee will probably get arrested over something before it’s over.” He was arrested for shooting off a pistol at Graceland. He said “Elvis gets all the good press and I get all the bad.”
