O2review.....respect,

just a quick line to say tonites show was totally shattering, probably the best i have seen this far, although it got off to a dodgy start, hence, early start, mass confusion amongst security and seating etc, plus some drunk idiot behind us, who was eventually sedated by the piano set, but what a show, have no words to describe it at present.

floor seats at BK E1 are simply amazing, probably the best i have had so far.

brilliant crowd tonite and naturally, apart from Elton being on stage as well and passing beside us before that last encore, aaaahhhhh, that last encore, that is a moment i will never forget....., thank you Prince, thank you London, see you all on the 16th.

PS who were the idiots booing at the end of the 2nd last encore????? I personally found that unreal after the show he had given, but it made his return for the last encore all the more unbelievable and satisfying, and half the arena experienced the unexpected.

Morning whitnail,
I was there last night with my brother and my 2 daughters, I too have no words! it was a superb performance, We drove home in silence, I was speechless and my girls were just staring at each other and grinning!!! (they are 12 and 14 and it was there first gig ever!) trouble is I dont think they wil top that!!!
I told them on the way there that he wouldnt sing 1999 - and then he did WOW!
My hands are bruised from clapping - my ears are shattered and I have a stonking headache, But it was totally worth it.

I would just like to say to the man who was in front of us (sat down the whole night, didnt move and had earplugs) sorry about my daughter slapping you in the head!! it was an accident (Ithink!) lol lol

Very memorable evening cool

The setlist is pretty much as I remember it but Renato also played a good chunk of Your Song during the Wonderful World segment.
