The B*tch is back (with a new autograph)

How many people can say "Oh I met Elton John this weekend"? We'll I can! I still can't believe it.

Elton John - In Person: 10/12/2007. How exciting was this! Not only did I get a chance to see Elton John in concert last night, but before his show I had the opportunity to go backstage to meet Sir Elton himself! Before he came in to visit with our small group (only 6 of us had this special VIP treatment), his personal assistant brought Elton's dog, Arthur in for us to meet. Arthur travels everywhere with Elton and knows several "tricks" which he demonstrated for us. About 15 minutes before showtime Elton arrived outside of the hospitality room, riding in the back of a golf cart. He was a little quiet but personable. No diva behavior! He was kind enough to pose for a picture with me and sign his current CD. What an incredible autograph to go with an incredible show. Over two and a half hours of Elton and his band performing hit after hit. He was amazing. Special thanks to my dear friend Monica who offered me (yet another) once in a lifetime opportunity that I will never forget.
