Phenomenal stuff. Despite the weather, which did nothing to dampen the spirits of the audience, this was one of the best stadium shows I've ever seen, running two and a half hours, and featuring enough hits to appease the most casual fan, and a few album tracks to placate the die-hards. Also, you could buy a soundboard recording of the whole show on CD afterwards, which I've seen happen at smaller shows in the Olympia and Vicar Street, but never for a large scale concert.

I was also at this gig with my boyfriend who wouldnt be much of an Elton Fan, but he came out pleasantly surprised at how much he enjoyed the show.
It was brilliant.
