Anyone going tonight? I decided about an hour ago to go. He puts on a good show. It will be my 7th time seeing him.
Elton John

- Start date
Good show. It was my 7th time seeing him. Thought about going to the Louisville show but he's playing the same setlist every show so probably not paying those prices twice for the same show. Nice to hear Burn Down the Mission.
Hey Glenn, how many times have you seen Elton John?
Congrats on seeing EJ seven times, Glennnnnnn. It was seven, right?
I like EJ OK, but would not pay those prices seven times to see the Beatles reunite with George and John back from the grave.
I saw him about 5 years ago in Salt Lake. He did a free show at a big software conference I attended. By mid show, everything he did started sounding the same. He's lost a lot of vocal range in his old age. Also, the acoustics in Vivint arena sucked. Everybody in my party left early.
Dude is like 75 and still puts on a heck of a show. Man is an entertainer.
Saw him a few years ago pre-covid for one of his last shows at Caesars Palace and it was excellent. I hadn't seen him since the 80's and was glad I got to see him once more.
I got to take my mom to see him in Nashville a few years back. She wanted to go and with her disability wasn’t able to on her own. Awesome show. Dude was upon the piano , captain posing on the bench, amazing for someone of his age. Went for three hours. No set breaks.
Name me any other performers at his age that would’ve done that. Awesome show.
Elton John is great on the piano, but he really sucks on an organ.

i saw him at the yum center how ever long ago. He was ok, but the sound was off. i attributed it to the silly assed angles in there. And dumb *** louisville generally.
Nice, two jokes in one post.
Well, played.
Edit: T'aint often you see that. Thank goodness.

I saw him on the tour he did with Leon Russell. That was one of the top 5 concerts I've ever seen. Saw him again a couple of years later, solo. It was still a great show, but not as good as the one with Leon.
Overrated as hell but I'm not 65+ so maybe I am missing the mark?
Heard he could play the male sax like a champ!

I've seen him twice, last two times he came through Louisville. Definitely a performer, and incredibly impressive to be as old as he is and still have the energy he does.
