    Elton John Concert Part1

    Here are 6 of 11 pictures I took last night at the Elton John concert at the General Motors Center in Oshawa last night.We had good seats 12 rows up from the stage on the right side of it.Elton did around 25 songs,lasted 2 and a half hours.I can remember the titles of 21 of them.In no particular order are the songs I can remember,it started with The One ended with Crocodile Rock,he had the audience sing the chorus,that was supposed to be it,the crowd cheered,he came back on and he signed some autographs and did another song.In between he did Ballad of the Boy With The Red Shoes,Gone to Shiloh from the Union Album he recorded with Leon Russell,Daniel,Honky Cat,I Guess That's Why They Call The Blues,Nikita,Levon,which he did a great piano solo,Tiny Dancer,Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me which he dedicated to his adopted son,Candle In the Wind,is Mom's favorite song,I'm Still Standing,Philadelphia Freedom,Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,Sixty Years On,Rocket Man, Can You Feel the Love Tonight from the Lion King,Your Song,Take Me to The Pilot,The Greatest Discovery and Bennie And The Jets.After a few songs,he would acknowledge the crowd with bows ,blow kisses and point to to the crowd all around the stage.Later on,there two people in front who stood up,so had to follow it on the Monitor hanging from the roof.he wore a long coat with a flower design on the front and a skull and cross on the back,wore his trademark tinted glasses,he can sure play a piano,fingers were literally flying over the keys,great show,had several standing ovations,he is really small,had short, stubby fingers,but sure played the piano well.It was sold out,7,300 in attendance

    Wow!

    I went with a friend to an EJ concert at the old Poplar Creek Music Theatre outside Chicago (which isn't there anymore). It was better than two hours long. As the audience was leaving after the show, he was helicoptered back to his downtown Chicago hotel. It was so cool to see him in the helicopter watching the audience filing out.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
