"Caesars
Palace is just a perfect, idyllic place to play, and the show will be a gargantuan feast of music and imagery," said
Elton
John. "I'm going to have a fabulous piano that Yamaha has been working on for four years, and that's the reason why the show is called 'The Million Dollar Piano.'"
Elton
John will be accompanied by his band, which includes Davey Johnstone
on guitar, Bob Birch on bass, John Mahon on
percussion, Nigel Olsson on drums and Kim
Bullard on keyboards with a special
appearance by percussionist Ray Cooper.
One of the most successful live acts on the road today,
Elton
John and his band put on an unforgettable show: the entire audience standing, dancing and singing along with much-loved classic songs.
Elton
John holds the record for the biggest selling single of all time, "Candle in the Wind," which sold 37-million copies.
