Bett Travers: My Memories of Elton 60
Long Islanders come ready to party with shirts and hats
By Bett Travers, Greenlawn, NY
It was a quick trip from Long Island to Madison Square Garden, but we couldn't have been more excited about being at this concert, and in the third row! We are all long time Elton fans. We made "The Bitch is 60" T-shirts, we had party hats, light up roses and light up fans that we programmed to read "Happy Birthday Elton."

We also had an awesome banner but unfortunately, security took it away from us before we had a chance to show Elton. What a night - what a show - what a party!

We made it on to the video a few times. Fran (the red-head in the boa), was actually in the opening scene of the original version on MSN the day after the show, and she was on the commercial for the television special. I can't think of any more of a thrill for an Elton John fan than to have been a part of this amazing evening. We're having a party as soon as we receive the DVD!
