Well said! I just had my last say on this matter as well. I've been a
lurker
here for years, and just thought I'd share a bit about the concert and
Elton
with other fans. I like controversy as much as the next guy (I'm being
"Ironical" here for those who didn't catch it), but this is really getting
silly. I've gotten a good laugh out of some of these responses as well.
Maybe you've heard the saying, "Those of you who think you're intelligent
are annoying those of us who really are"? In this case, "Giving us a laugh
at your expense" would be more accurate.
As I said in my very first post on this topic, "And now, back to
Elton...."
