Saw the Show June 2007

Pro:

Con:

We love Elton John's music, and have for years, I'm 54, husband 55. We know he's gay, no big deal. We came to listen to his music, not feel like we were on a bad LSD trip.

The videos playing behind him were disturbing to say the least. Transexual people, orgies, etc... That's not what I paid for, I paid to hear Elton. If you closed your eyes, it was great, he was right on with his music and voice, but if you opened your eyes, you couldn't help but see the video behind him, it was unavoidable! Then at the end of the show, the huge inflatable breasts coming down from the ceiling was the worst!!!

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. When the videos began, we, and the couple we came with, were like "What the heck is going on?" We felt like we were in hell. There were many people that walked out, and people with children were watching this porn!

There is no warning whatsoever when you inquire about his concert, there should be a warning about what you will be exposed to during the concert. If that's his lifestyle, I'm not judging him, but don't force the audience to have to witness the fetishes of one person, we just came to enjoy the legend and his music.

I would have never bought tickets to this concert had I known this was the venue.

THERE HAS TO BE A WARNING FOR PEOPLE BEFORE THEY PURCHASE THEIR TICKETS, AS TO WHAT THE SHOW INVOLVES. THERE WOULD BE A LOT LESS TICKETS SOLD, I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY DON'T DISCLOSE THIS, IT'S A RIP-OFF, PEOPLE ARE BRINGING CHILDREN TO WITNESS THIS PORN!!! If they're not wise enough to get up and leave, their children will never get those images out of their minds. We thought about it for weeks, and still can't understand why he couldn't come out, sit at the piano and sing.
