Was once magical back in the day. Really enjoyed his now classic song, "Don't let your son go down on me."

If you pay $250 for Elton John tickets, you deserve to ripped off.

Saw him in Baton Rouge, was an awesome show. Played almost non stop for 2+ hours.

The PA should've played Goodbye Yellowbrick Road while everyone left disappointed.

When you play as many shows as someone like Elton, for as long as he’s been doing it, there are some aspects of it that I imagine they treat just like any of us treat our jobs. If you get sick you take the day off.

Once I had tickets to see Aerosmith, and the show was cancelled the day of due to illness. This was before social media so we found out when we drove up to the gate of the amphitheater. My guess was Steven Tyler had diharrea.

This happened once with an Elvis concert in Baton Rouge my folks had tickets to see. I think he had the flu or something. Elvis kicked the bucket before he made it back, so they never got to see the King.

He should've just pulled an Axl Rose. Sing one song, punch somebody in the face, then storm off stage

Honestly, it would likely be the concert of a lifetime. He's pretty fricking great.

Sorry you're poor and can't appreciate a great musician on his last tour.

At least he didn't do like George Strait and put a body double on stage for half the tour.
