Just got back home from a little adventure. My daughter and I went to an Elton John concert. He's 65 now and his voice is just as powerful as ever, the light display was dazzling, eyeball searing at times and the music was deafening! but it was really nice to hear all the oldies for nearly three hours. The man has stamina! He only took one 30 second piddle break in all that time and there wasn't an intermission, so he didn't even get a cup of tea! He seems a very nice man in person and he looked lovely in his hugely spangled jacket.

We went to the Launceston concert and his guest performers, 'The Two Cellos' were incredibly talented as well.

The same night, last night in fact. I just found this, so you can see how fantastic the 2 Cellos are;

They played this number last night at the Elton John concert, full blast - the audience loved it!
You should watch the clip, it really is something else!

Yeah; there are only a handful of us who really post regularly; a much smaller handful, too, than what we had on SU.

Is the FB group busier?

I'm thinking that Google groups are on the way out being replaced by Google+ communities.

I wish you would post there, Snezana, I got a "Spasmagram" game and a "Ectoplasmagram" game set up there but nobody else playing yet.. lol.

I understand, Snezana.. this group won't be closing, but I suspect that with Google+ now having communities, that it'll be phasing out groups, so we're all set up there.. would love to see you on G+ :)

Wow, check out the "About" button above, everyone, just tons of fascinating stats about this group.. so now I'm thinking that they keep adding stuff to the groups here that maybe these aren't going away anytime soon.. so, cool. :)
