Is that YOUR Elton John T-shirt from that show?

Not mine - mine is all worn out and the ink is cracked (I slept in it for years) - it’s my sister’s- she sent me the pic. I was surprised she still had it - she’s been trying to sell it though. I hope she doesn’t

Maybe your dad had an 'in' with the Beatles camp in some way. The coincidences are striking, for sure.

Cameron Crowe's autobiography was another one with a lot of synchronicity. I think you'll enjoy it once you read it. Seems it was 'meant to be' for both of you.

Fantastic story. Absolutely love early Elton. And I too lusted after a Wurly. Little did I know, in the mid 80's, they couldn't give them away. Now they're ridiculously priced. I got mine for $800 and had to have it worked on. But I love it. Thanks for the wonderful stories/images. I envy you for being at the coolest places at the right time!
