Having purchased tickets nearly 8 months prior, the big night finally arrived when famed singer Elton John (GB) would be performing in Orlando at Amway Center. |
An early stop on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour, Elton John is finally retiring. Since I had never seen him live, this was a must-do event! |
With excellent seats on the floor, I was really excited about this. |
Amway Center was sold out. |
The crowd largely older given that most of Elton’s hits were back in the 70’s. |
The show was supposed to begin at 8:15PM but at 8:11PM I received a text from my source at Amway telling me the show was being cancelled. I was told Elton had gotten sick in his dressing room. Around 8:30PM a stadium announcer came on and said Elton had an ear infection and the show was cancelled. Many just sat there, thinking it was a joke. It wasn’t. |
A good time was had by…..no one! |
