Ok, so I am still buzzing after last nights concert and instead of continuing to annoy friends I thought I would post here.
M and I went to his concert last night, and I LOVED it! I really wanted to go when I saw he was coming, but couldn't afford the $250 each so we left it, then extra cheaper tickets were put on sale and we nabbed them and had a ball. He performed for close to 3 hours and all of it was brilliant. A very talented man and I have to say for the first half an hour or so I was just in awe of him. The rest of the concert was spent singing and dancing away. An absolutely awesome night, and even though I am exhausted today, if he were to perform again tonight I would do all I could to get tickets! ------------- ">

Glad you had a good time. I didn't realise they released cheaper tickets.
You are the only person that I know of that went, was it sold out? Get an early night tonight!  ------------- Mr Mellow (16) Miss Attitude (8) Destructa Kid (3)

no it wasn't sold out, which I think is why the realeased the cheaper tickets. It was only by chance that I found out about them too as was just flicking through the paper and there they were. We had pretty good seats too, row HH and on the side pretty much at the end of the stage so had a good view of him. ------------- ">

| I saw Elton in Wembly Arena in London in 2004. We paid 100 pounds each and sat 6 rows from the front. Totally worth it, and unforgetable night! |

I went too. It was Fantastic!!!
I was right up the front row 1 we had seats 29-35. You probably saw my Mum and her mates with their flashing light thingy's . 
My old nextdoor neighbour from when I was a teenager is the boss of Capital C Conerts the people who brought him here and he gave Mum 6 Tickets (good score ah)
Elton only flew in at 4pm and was supposed to be on a flight to Oz at midnight..not sure if he would have made that. Phil (the neighbour) said he's trying to get The Who out next and maybe Metalica .....Hmmmmm wouldn't mind seeing The Who in concert. ------------- Mum to Natasha Aroha 9/12/1995, Alexandra Makareta Waimarie 22/4/1998 and....Alyssa Frances Hopaea 18/03/2007

Oh Shaz I did see the flashy light things, and so jealous of you being so close to the front, did you get near the stage as well? We were to your left.
Let me know if you get a heads up on who is coming next as both of those intrest me! ------------- ">
