What a blast! Sir Elton, a 9 foot grand, and 14,000 of his screaming closest friends! Three hours straight, 28 songs! Indescribable!

Now back to our humdrum existence, with all those songs running through our heads…

Ooooh, you are so lucky! The last time I saw Elton in concert was 1976. Everytime since then that he has performed nearby I have been too poor to go. Hum something for me!

“I remember when rock was young  
Me and Suzie had so much fun…”

I’m sure you can fill in the rest… 🙂
