Tony WAS there and sang one song-catch it tonight ITV ONE(UK)-if it's included?

Tony only appeared very briefly-but not in a duet segment.

When asked what he would be giving Elton as a birthday present,Tony replied-'A Benedetto sketch'.

Do you think he'd do the same for me if I invited to my birtday celebrations in June?

Mark Fox said...

Ask him when you see him-how could he refuse?

somehow i never thought i would live this long.

it was a very good show i thought and it showed only his 60th birthday concert, celebrity interviews which they did many types of questions and comments which were very cute and candid it looked like but in a sudio and in front of the saturday night birthday bash. there were no clips of his current tour or inside his private party which was hoping to see but understand why not. the person who went to the party didn't remember most of the party. so not sure what he sang inside but glad he was there and sure it went well with his pipes...

one of my favorites from the concert was crocodile rock and the audience did the chorus and was up on their feet. the other was the john lennon dedication which saw alot of tears and mellow but great moment and men.

read about a dvd from somewhere soon?
