Rocketman

Last night Laurie and I went to the Bell Center in Surrey to see Rocketman, a tribute to Elton John and Billy Joel starring Ryan Langevin.  Backed by a full live band and two fantastic dancer.  He is a local performer and I've never seen him before.  The concert was excellent!

I've never seen him before, but he's performed at the following:

Some performance highlights for The Rocket Man include The TD Concert on The Pier in White Rock for over 5000 people, The Pacific National Exhibition (PNE), The Harmony Arts Festival, The River Rock Show Theatre, The Kelowna Community Theatre, The Port Alberni Performing Arts Centre, The Hard Rock Casino in Vancouver, The Massey Theatre in New Westminster, the Langley Canada Day Celebrations for a crowd of over 5000, sold-out shows at Prairieland Park Hall in Saskatoon, Evraz Place in Regina, The Bell Centre For Performing Arts, Northlands Park in Edmonton, The Vernon Performing Arts Centre & more!

The first half was Billy Joel.
He was a wonderful pianist.

After the break, out came Elton John!


James Mullinger and his visit to Canada!

Every now and again I find a funny video.  This is not crude because the places he mentions are all towns in Canada.  I love British humour ...
