EIton John in Chichen itza

One of the advantages of living in Mexico, going to see Elton John in Chichen itza, the night of the yellow moon. it was just incredible. And it cost only $140.00 us dollars for a ticket and transportation. Even Elton commented on how awesome it was to be there. His exact words were

i have played in many amazing venues before but never have i been so honored to play at a venue like this

The venue was small, we guess maybe 7,000 people in total. the temple changed colors every time a new song came on. and even though we had the most cheapy seats, all the views were great and you were able to walk right up to the vip section, there was no one asking for tickets. a friend of mine had $600.00 dollar tickets and our view was just as good as his. Another friend walked right up to the vip section and when the announcer said please sit down, she did. Right in the third row. We liked it in the back because we could stand up and dance, and thats were all the fun people were.
The yellow moon eventually rose between the stage and the temple and it was really one of the coolest things i have ever seen. We were so into the concert by then, we stopped taking pictures.
Living in Vancouver the year before, it was impossible to get tickets to any concerts. normally they were sold out in 3 minutes and then on Craig s list for 10 times the price.
please let me know if you would like to see more pics.
my next blog will be about the free concerts at Mamitas beach in Playa del Carmen.
talk soon,
