Elton John ~ Petco Park San Diego 5/9/2025

Elton played a rare post-retirement show last night to benefit the Curebound Cancer Research foundation. Given that I hadn't seen him before, was a pretty easy decision, esp when the cheap seats (we were at the very top row of the stadium) were way cheaper than his farewell tour stop here. He sounded great, really enjoyed the show. Really interesting seating too, only about 1/2 the stadium was full and the field was all (very expensive) tables.

And as a Cancer near-misser (had 2/3 of my colon removed due to pre-cancerous growths) this serves as a good reminder for a PSA to get your colonoscopy when your doctor says its time. Take it from me and my semi-colon.

We were in Canada to see Pearl Jam in Sept 2022, had tix for Hamilton & Toronto with an off night in between. Elton was playing at Rogers Centre that night and I bought cheap tix on the train from Hamilton to Toronto.

Our first time seeing him, he was on my must see list. Incredible show, so glad we got to go.
