I felt lucky and blessed to finally see the one concert I wanted to see for the last 45 years. Thank you Sir Elton John for sharing your heavenly talent! I am in Awe! Video productions, etc. Musicians looked to be performing well. The sound in the Dallas American Airlines Center was so loud--especially the lower frequencies--that the mix was unintelligible.
It was literally too loud to understand. Of course, we knew most of the words to the songs, but the only place we could distinguish those words was in our memories. Covering my ears with my hands failed to significantly reduce the bass. While the SHOW was great, in general it was a disappointment. I suspect the fault lies with Elton John's engineers, so maybe this will be a problem elsewhere too.
This show was completely misrepresented by ALL promoters! The vast majority of concert goers thought we were going to witness a live concert with Elton backed by the Orchestra. A piano was brought out on stage during the movie intermission.
That was a 5 minute nicety after a 3 hour let down. I met two nice ladies who flew in from Canada dressed up and super excited only to be completely disappointed.
I contemplate if I even want to hang on my wall as I do not wish to remember this experience because it was not a true representation of the night or what the poster implies.
The production was first class by Baby Boomer standards; however, I would grade the performance as a B. Elton doesn't have the voice anymore, so he doesn't try for the real high notes and resorts to screaming some of the lyrics.
The music was pretty tight, though he took liberties with the melody sometimes. Overall, it was a great show but it wasn't the best. I understand he will be performing over concerts throughout this farewell tour, lasting into the Fall of That's a lot. He's not getting any younger and, in fact, he's seems to have some difficulty with mobility.
You can Google his play list but it doesn't include some of his bigger hits Honky Cat or Harmony. He did go for nearly 2 hours straight and came back for a 2-song encore. Glad I went, though. He is a legend! Great concert. I was six rolls up from the Floor. There was two screens one on each side of the stage over the seats. I live in Al. It was a sold out concert. Everybody was standing up dancing by their seats.
Elton left the stage after just guessing 20 songs. After he left the stage. Everybody was hooping and hollowing, clapping like crazy. This was the 3rd E. He was there alone. Then Sept. And this time with the band. I didn't go to the Chattanooga concert because it hasn't been that long since I saw him in Huntsville. Now I'm waiting for Rod Stewart to come to Chattanooga. I saw him in Tampa Fl. The concert was fantastic. This was my 6th Elton John concert that I have been to and he never fails to please the crowd.
Sadly the wind effected the sound though. Elton's tribute to Jonah Lomu was really heartfelt and beautiful. It was so lovely to see the whole audience swaying and holding up their cel phones and singing along with Elton to Don't let the sun go down on me.
The same thing was done to one of my favourite songs, Candle in the wind which was written about Marilyn Monroe and later changed for Princess Diana it to was really emotional I will never forget that. The thing about Elton John is that you could tell that he really wanted to be there and that he truly loves what he does.
He is a proffesional polished act. The other thing that was so good was that there were people of all ages at the concert. Elton John's music is timeless and ageless. Well Elton has the sense to understand that his won't hit all the high notes he used to do.
So he has adapted the songs to sung writhing his band, and he sings them comfortably. But they are not exactly as you may remember hearing them.
After all you are listening to the original artist, but a different variant of the song. Some of them worked really well, like Bennie and the Jets, Saturday nights alright for fighting, others not so, like Tiny Dancer. Overall a credit to a master performer, plays for over 2 and a half hours.
It was announced in , and set to end in December , but the pandemic ensured that a long stretch of shows were postponed. This article is more than 1 month old.
