I just got a call from my lifelong girlfriend, Laura. She's in Vegas with her hubby and somehow they got tickets to see a one night show of ELTON JOHN at the MGM!!
I LOVE early Elton, his first 5 albums.... So she calls while they're waiting at the taxi rank. I had said to her, since it's one off, I bet he plays his old stuff!
She said- OMG, LIZ. I cried thru the whole concert. And everysong I thought of YOU! Elton was my first concert when I was 12. I always think of my Dad- who was into his early stuff as well!
She told me some of the songs he played and the lights and projectors were fantastic!
I asked- did he play YOUR SONG?? She said that was the last song he played and he dedicated it to the USA for all the support over the years.
Oh and he had most of his original band. She said Nigel played and couldn't remember the other player... I said Tony? Was it Tony Johnston?? or Johnson?? Then she tells her hubby- "Liz is SO into music, you wouldn't believe it!! She, she should have left hubby at home and taken me!!!
Ah well- she had me in tears just telling me bout' it!
Love, light and music!!
