I never went to an Elton John concert, but I once helped clean up after one. This was ten years go, while working for a temp service that provided cleanup crews for after events in the local civic center. One of the other temps asked the supervisor from the entertainment company if he got to meet Elton John. The supervisor said he was glad to be rid of him. Apparently, that thing is true about him having dressing rooms repainted even if he only plans to use them for a few hours.
