Elton John comes to Harrogate

 There was great excitment in the Ryder household this week, well from one member anyway, as we had tickets to go and see Elton John. He was playing at the Great yorkshire showground, the first event of its kind to be held there.
On Monday night he was on TV at the Jubilee concert at Buckingham Palace and to be honest, well he sounded dreadful!.
So despite excitement at going to the concert there was some apprehension as to how he would be.
However when he came on he was absolutely brilliant and played continually for 2 and a half hours, all his big hits and just a couple Ive not heard before, and judging by the amount of people that used that time to dash off to the loo, not many others had heard them either!!!
All in all a great night out and even though it started to rain about 30 mins from the end it didnt dampen anyones enthusiasm. Id go and listen to it all again tomorrow !
