Billy & Elton

About a year ago I heard that Billy Joel and Elton John were coming in concert! Hans has been a fan for years, specifically because of their amazing piano skills. The concert couldn't have been more perfectly scheduled...November 20th, the day after Hans' 39th birthday! I was so excited to keep it a secret and surprise him.....until.... he walked in with the mail and handed me an envelope and said, "I don't think I was supposed to open this" ...oh man! He saw the tickets and was way excited, but was nervous I was going to kill him for ruining the surprise!
I NEVER get to surprise him....
maybe one day!
Then on Hans' birthday, a big announcement was made....the concert was being rescheduled because Elton John was sick!
Rescheduled for February 19th!
We were so sad, we had planned a whole weekend in SLC for Hans' birthday and the concert was the main event! We still had a blast...one of the best meals of our lives...at Pago (go if you haven't gone....amazing!) and a fun movie and night with out the kids!

So finally February 19th came!!!

We got ready and our photographer Josie took our picture!

The place was packed and we had awesome seats! Only 17 rows from the stage! Dead center!

This was taken with my phone, not a bad shot! Very cool lighting and effects!

Here is some phone video footage!


Billy rockin' it on the piano!

Elton (who looks like a for real grandma) doing his thing!

We met up with Jill after the show! She was hoarse from such a fun time!

It was a great night! Hans and I had a blast and really enjoyed ourselves!
And I have to say it.
Elton is amazing.
But oh Billy....you've got me!
Incredible!
