Elton John & Leon Russell Tickets

Fantastic. Great to hear from Elton John how he and Leon Russle became such good friends. only hard part was hearing the words of leon russle. Elton Johns words are very crisp and clear.

What an honor and a privilege to attend this concert!! Sir EJ was incredibly classy and gracious. His voice was magnificent -- and his piano playing world-class! His tribute to friend Elizabeth Taylor was emotional and touching. Every single one of the musicians was fantastic. An unexpected bonus: the fabulous Leon Russell, and the back-up singing associated with Sly and the Family Stone (an original female member and others in the family). I'd go again this evening if the concert played a second night in Pittsburgh! Not only was the audience engaged and connected...there was a positive, uplifting vibe. This is a concert that families can attend together...as well as a great date-night. The audience this man attracted was great to attend with. I was seated on the side of the stage (first tier) --looking at Sir EJ's back (a solo attendee- I had purchased my ticket late). However, because he consistently made contact with the sides and back of the stage at the end of each song-- I loved the seat.! Sir EJ was clearly attuned to individual members of the audience --and indicated that non-verbally. He is such "a pro" --and an incredibly nice human being, who bestowed genuinely warm wishes to the audience for a future filled with love, happiness, and good health. Unforgettable!! Don't miss spending time with this wonderful man --who represents the very best of humankind. Don't think twice --just get a ticket! PS. Sir EJ: if you read this --it was nice you made the effort to "jump up" on the piano...but please don't feel that is necessary. You are one of the few performers who need only "show up" to create an endearing and magical connection with your audience. It is clear why you are beloved by so many. And, congrats. on your new son!!

This was the first time I had seen Elton live. All I can say is he puts on an awesome show. Leon Russell was onstage for a few songs but Elton did all my favorites. Well worth the time! I would recommend this to everyone.

Would absolutly see them again!!! Worth every penny!!!

Very awsome show, I saw Leon Russell and Elton John in the early '70's separately, both are great. I've got to say that Elton John is still awsome and really has stamina to play (or should I say ROCK THE HOUSE) a couple of non stop hours, or more. Some new stuff, and alot of top classics. Leon ain't bad either. Great show!

Very disappointed -- show was promoted as a Greatest Hits but on the day of the concert it became a Union Tour concert with Leon Russell. We wanted to see Elton. The Civic Center was filthy and acoustics were awful. As best I can tell Elton performed for his usual length of time, but the Union and Russell were first and it made for a long concert.

Elton as usual was fantastic. Leon Russel not so much . He sounded like Willie Nelson. Not being a country fan it was dissapointing. However I would definitly see Elton again. Best one I've seen him do when It was his " I owe taxes tour". It was just him and his piano. No back up singers , no Light show, no band. Just him !! What a show man his is.

Excellent performance(s). Apparently, my review text was too short - - so let me just say this: Excellent performance(s).

When we first heard of this show, we wondered how these two performers would be on stage together. We had seen Elton and Billy Joel together in Tampa a few years ago and thought that was good, but we've always been big fans of both. We hadn't always been as big a fan of Leon Russell's, simply because we hadn't heard as much from him, but we are now! He and Elton were fantastic together, and thier voices and singing styles compliment each other well. Elton John went above and beyond what we expected (I have seen him maybe 6 times or so), and we are now convinced for sure that he has one of the best voices ever heard - what a gift to have! Between the two of them the concert lasted approx. 3 hours and 20 minutes - definitely the best value we've ever received for the money spent. Highly recommended!!!

The first 1/3 of the show is basically Leon Russell doing his own thing solo. Nothing wrong with the guy but I don't recall ever hearing him before and I knew nothing he played. The next 1/3 of the show is Elton John and Leon Russell playing music from a new album they are releasing - neat idea, but again, I didn't know any of the songs and the show didn't mix well between the two musicians. The graphics on stage during this phase of the concert were amateurish and looked like juvenile light bright versions of roses and the like. By the time the last 1/3 of the concert rolls around, it is now after 10 pm and I hadn't heard but one song I knew. This is when Elton John came on solo and played the music I had come to hear. It was good and Elton was a great performer but he played mostly his ballads - Rocketman, Daniel, etc. and sat at his piano and waved at everyone whereas in other concerts I saw him in in the past he danced around, rallied the crowd and played fun songs I grew up dancing to. The theater itself was disappointing too. I paid bucko bucks for floor seats. The stage was quite low to the floor and there was no incline at all to the stage or floor. Though I bought my tickets immediately, I was 3/4 of the way back on the floor. I am just shy of 5 foot tall so when I sat down all I could see was one line of lights suspended from the ceiling above the stage (there were three sets of lights) and the two female dancers who were on the right most edge of the stage. I ended up standing on a wobby folding chair for a while and then finally sneaking into a cheaper seat on the side of the concert where my friend and I could at least see that there were pianos on the stage. Even then, everyone had to turn 90 degrees to their right to see the stage or anything and many people in my area left the concert early b/c their necks were frozen after 2+ hours of listening to Leon Russell and had had enough.
