I saw Elton John play at The Meadows in Hartford several years back. I was really surprised at how good a show he puts on. He played non stop for over three hours.
I would think a guy like him could get away with playing for an hour, doing a quick encore and bugging out of there. But no, he played and sung his ass off. It was definitely a great experience.
And this is coming from a guy who really didn't like him for most of my life. My ex wife wanted to go and I got the tickets for free from a friend who was a ticket broker.

I saw him live once too!! You are right, he DOES put on a show, and gave your moneys worth.
At that time, everyone was wild about him. You could cut the air of anticipation waiting for his next song. Then, he'd play one chord. Boom. That of Benny and the Jets, and the whole place erupted in craziness!!! It was fabulous! People screaming and singing and shouting at others to shut up and the 'smokers' ? just enjoying the whole deal. Fun.
