I thought this was a pretty darn good show overall. Like madmike I thought the standing and bowing after almost every song got a bit old but I guess that is what gives Elton enough breaks to make it thru the entire set without a break. I could also have done without the extended versions of some of the songs as I tend to like my concert songs played as close to the original recording as possible.<br />But Elton did play a very satisfying number of hits. We did miss Daniel and some other favorites but that is what happens at most concert especially with bands that have been so successful of a long period of time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8405421.post-11408866625205233962013-12-01T13:33:31.935-06:002013-12-01T13:33:31.935-06:00Seth,

My comments posted on Facebook were as follows:<br /><br /> I give Sir Elton a "C" at best for his concert. I thought the sound was poor and that his concert lacked the type of energy I would expect from someone of his caliber. Also his standing, turning and bowing and pointing to the crowd after each song was as if to say. "Yes, there you go, another classic from me - Sir Elton." Pleeze, really? The Flletwood Mac concert I attended back in June was far better and more entertaining than EJ. And Paul McCartney a couple of years ago at Comerica Park, detroit was 10 times better.madmikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712134082773000245noreply@blogger.com
