Listening to
the music of an era is one of the best ways to evoke the feeling of the period
and, for those who lived through the time, the music taps into memories. For me,
some of Elton John’s tunes remind me of my time in the Vancouver of the ‘70s.
The ‘70s
were a time when Elton John was at his most flamboyant. Maybe that is why the
girls hatched their plan. Both Christine and Diane like to dress to the nines
and draw your attention. Together they came up with the scheme for our crew to
dress up for the concert so that people would wonder who this special group
were.
The night
arrived and we were ready. The girls and their escorting boyfriends looked
elegant. Even Bradley looked like a magazine model in his suit. No doubt they
caused speculation among people in the audience. I wasn’t looking too closely
as I concentrated on climbing the arena steps without tripping on my skirts. My
enjoyment of the evening started after I was in my seat and the music started. Then
all eyes were on the spectacle on stage and our crew all enjoyed the concert in
their own ways.
