Fan report by Julio from Spain.

This has been a very special concert because I was at Elton John's concert in Paris without having gone to Paris! All thanks to CINESA who has been in charge of broadcasting the concert to some European cinemas.

The broadcast also included the performance of support act Jamie Lidell, and then Elton jumped on stage on time. Wearing beautiful purple glasses he started strongly with "Bennie And The Jets". Later in the show Elton changed his suit for the beautifull "Treasure Hunter" suit and he finished the show with the "Cocrodile" suit and blue glasses.

The feeling to "attend" the concert in the cinema was strange, but the image and sound quality were excellent and allowed to see the concert well.

Elton had a few voice problems at the beginning, but he was improving during the concert, his voice was very good and he sang some beautiful interpretations of "Candle In The Wind" and "Your Song".

A great concert, witnessed in the cinema, a new experience and interesting one, but nothing compared to seeing a Elton John show live!
