Did you even try to win tickets through contests that your local radio stations had? I tried to win tickets but it was fruitless, so hard to get through. The day after the concert, one of the radio stations played Elton & Billy songs right from the concert all day long. It wasn't the same as seeing them live but. One of the dejays had a friend who worked on the crew and she got to go back-stage and meet both Elton and Billy. Wouldn't that be amazing?

I hope they'll reschedule too. It sounds like you like them a lot. Do you have favorite songs from both?

Yeah but I wonder if since there are two big names performing together, they can charge the double price? $35 each and $80.00 each for the good seats. I wonder why the tickets it was more expensive here. I swear that the prices were $80.00 and $180.00
