Put the shotgun away - that's no intruder, it's just your good pal Elton John captured during last night's concert at the Q.

Sigh. No, I wasn't in attendance for this one.

I took a pass on last night's show with Billy and Elton, because I knew that things would be pretty standard and by-the-numbers.

Turns out that I was close, but not completely right. My good pal John Soeder has more details in his review of last night's show here.

Here's the setlist, thanks to John!
