Howzat!  Elton's A Big Hit With Fans

Elton John last played at Sussex County Cricket Ground in 2006 and once again he was met with hot temperatures and blazing sunshine.  Elton was the Rock-It Man as thousands packed Sussex County Cricket Ground to see the Superstar belt out a whole host of hits.  Elton told the crowd 'Its always sunny when I play here so I should play here all the time!'  Elton also gave a shout out to nearby residents who could watch the concert from the comfort of their balconies overlooking the cricket ground.  Wearing a black embroidered jacket and purple glasses, Elton was met with a host of lookalikes.  

The Hove concert was one of only three shows the global superstar will put on in the UK this summer.  The night was a particularly special one for Sussex County Cricket Club as they picked Elton John to be the first person to play there after a £7million refurbishment.  The tickets sold like hot cakes - the show was a complete sell out within a few weeks.
