"We had VIP tickets, right in front of the stage within arm's reach of the piano where Elton was performing. "He even did a shout out to us, just before I'm Still Standing. We were blown away, everyone was so grateful for the opportunity. To be praised by someone of that calibre - we were just totally blown away."He told the crowd:"Their version of I'm Still Standing just made me feel so good, it just blew me away... They're here tonight, thank you guys, for doing this."
