    Oh, that's wonderful.. What a great birthday treat for you!

    I love Elton John. What a fabulous career he has had, what a showman and what an artist he is. So many immortal songs from him!

    He's also doing a show in Windsor ON on September 10, about 50 miles away from me. I thought, maybe I should look into going to that.

    It turns out, they started selling the tickets yesterday (22nd) and were almost sold out within a couple of hours.. though, according to the Windsor Star, "A few tickets were still left Friday afternoon, at $93.25 and $153.35, though the dinner packages for $50 extra sold out Friday morning."

    That's Canadian money, of course.. and right now, the loonie (Canadian $1 bill) is worth more than the US dollar ($1.06US)!

    Ohh-Kay... Well, I guess I won't be seeing you this time around, Elton.

    Anyway, Fritz (Barry?), I hope you will all have a fantastic time!

    I wonder how he will dress this time.
    When I seen him, he had a jacket on covered in light globes.
    He is truly a great showman.

    How cool is that?! I saw him in concert probably 15 years ago. He was fantastic- the show was jammed with music for a good 2 hours.

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

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

    He is having a concert where I'm from, but really don't have any plans to see it. Just don't like crowded areas.

    Heard about that concert and I was hoping we might get lucky and have him come here but no such luck. I would give my shirt to see him perform, just love his singing.
