Elton's coming!

Im sure thats what the butler says....

But anyway, Reginald is on his way back here for the third time in three years. Nice. I wanted to go to the 2006 show in December, but with what was going on at the time it just wasnt a priority. And then he announced some shows here in Dec 2007 to celebrate the opening of Billy Elliot. And again, things were going on that made anything other than looking after my girl a non priority.

I saw him back in 2002 and it was a great show. He has a great band and the hits just dont stop. The show was about two and a half hours.

I wasn't actually going to the show, but at about 5pm on the day of the last of 6(??) shows at the Entertainment Centre here in Sydney I got a call from my boss. Elton's Australian bodyguard wanted a Casio G-Shock watch. So she swapped the watch(es) for a few seats. So we went to the show with a customer (could claim the evening as an expense that way) and all had a blast. Lots of older people there, lots of people having a good time.
