First he plays at Rush's wedding, now refusing to boycott Israel. The moonbats will be devastated.  :-)

I gotta get me more Elton John CDs.  He's going to be near me with Billy Joel soon.

I'm truly dumbfounded, in a pleasant way. I've always liked Elton John's music. I guess that knighthood has done him some good, unlike Sir Paul.

Sir Elton has more class in his little finger than Sir Paul has in his entire body.  And, his music doesn't suck, unlike Paul's.  I have never understood the adoration of the Beatles' music. :ashamed:
