Elton John at COTA? Really?

like a spark plug in the wind

 

I thought good ol' Reg Dwight was a noted car enthusiast?

The circuit has to make back some of the money Bernie steals.

 

Ever been to a Sir Elton gig?

He may be out there in terms of "lifestyle", but he puts on one hell of a fine show IMO. Good for COTA - at least they're trying.

Cheers,
Ian

 

He came to bakersfield and he was great--- or was that Barry Mannelow?

I need to see if I can find "Corvette Summer." " Benny-- Benny..."

 

I like both, just not together.

 

There aren't many acts out there with more star power.

Has he performed a super bowl halftime show? If not, only a matter of time.

 

His fan base consists of wild and crazy sixty-somethings.

Our generation's Liberace.

 

This dovetails nicely with the image most of America has of F1 eurotrash. As evidenced by the cinema masterpiece Talledaga Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

 

COTA sent me an email advertising tickets. Paddock Club only $4200 per person for Saturday and Sunday. Heavy price to pay for watching Mercedes 1 & 2. 😄

 

Ditto. COTA is pulling in a number of bigger acts that Austin wouldn't usually get. Unfortunately, COTA is a crappy place for a show a decent show.

at least its not country music...

 

It's after the race. I guess it's an easy way of getting people to leave the track

 

😄

 

Beats the heck out of some autotuned hack.

 

+1

I don't have a problem with the hats. I don't have a problem with the boots.

But, for reasons unknown, country music grates on me like nails on a blackboard...... I know it's popular here, but not for me.

Cheers,
Ian

 

Didn't they have Bieber at some point at I think Singapore?

 

Thanks for reminding me where I fit in society !!!

 

Just to give the needle to Lewis Hamilton, they could put Nicole Schurzinger in as
the opening act.

They could even arrange for her and Ed Sheeran to visit the Mercedes pits perhaps?

 

Hey Ian,

Have you tried any old school country music, ya know, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, Tex Ritter, etc. Better than the newfangled stuff IMO...T

 

Best is she doesn't even need to sing, just strip!!

 

Wait, Nicole Scherzinger sings?!? Who knew!

well last year it was Kid Rock, he can be a little country at time, but I must say he had a very good show, I stayed for the whole show, and it was packed
