I remember seeing this in the theater when it first came out. It totally blew my mind. After the movie, I sat stunned waiting for my parents to pick me up, take me home. In those moments, I knew my life would never be the same again. I became a lifelong musician, and at 61, I still play keyboards in a rock band.

@frankthespank 2 года назад

But do you play a mean pinball?

@TheScreamingFrog916 2 года назад

@@frankthespank I play a sort of Aggressive pinball, but not quite mean. LOL I do get pretty physically/vocally expressive. Feet firmly planted, hips and shoulders moving wildly, and hands on the machine, both pressing the buttons like a mad man, and bumping the table, trying to make the ball do my bidding. What I lack, is any kind of coherent strategy, just trying to get the ball to hit as many things as I can, and keep it from going down the chute. What an amazing invention!

@michaelgwyndavies2827 Год назад

Trivia: The wardrobe department had gone so over budget by this point in the movie, they were force to ask Elton John to just bring in some of his own ordinary, everyday street clothes to shoot this scene. Thankfully, he obliged.

Can we take 5 minutes and 8 seconds to appreciate how great the 70's were?

@ChatGPT1111 2 года назад

Indeed, there's something about this era and Elton in particular that really makes you live the moment. Elton all but owned the 1970's and his songs comprised about half of the airtime in Los Angeles in the early/mid-70's. I was once waiting for a flight at LAX around 1973 when I was 14 and remember a very large number of females quickly running down the concourse screaming "Elton's here"!

I was just an 8 year old kid in the audience the day they were filming this with Elton John and The Who. I was already a Who fan thanks to my elder brothers and the Who happened to be filming Tommy in my home town that summer. I was on my way home from school and walking past the Kings Theatre when I joined a crowd of trendy teenagers and got ushered in as extras all who were invited to form the crowds in the scene. I ended up on the shoulders of a young man who stood on the chairs in upper circle. It was pretty hairy but the excitement is something that never left me all my life. It was my first concert and my first shoot. Took me 40 years to see them in concert again.

Elton John at the peak of his amazing abilities as a singer/performer. The Who as Elton's back up band at their peak of their oh-so-cool onstage antics ( Pete's conspicuous consumption of destroying guitars ). Roger Daltrey at the peak of his insanely sexy muscular hairless blonde-hair blue-eyed good looks - and it's filmed in an era before M-TV or music videos are invented. This was a moment that altered the rock & roll universe forever. Watch this, my children, and understand "genius"!

I was a pre-teen in the mid-70s. Some rainy or snowy Saturday or Sunday afternoons, I'd be stuck inside.

I was about 9 or 10, but watching Ann Margret on screen, I knew I was heterosexual. #ComingOfAge

2:48 to 2:53 Keith Moon personified the soul of rock n roll in a few frantic seconds.

Elton John and The Who together on [movie] stage. Two of the greatest Live acts of this era. Can't beat that.

The 70ths music was not political anymore and there was no MTV yet. Everything was just fun and suddenly there were a bunch of all thoset kinds of music changes that developed different kinds of show styles and costumes expressing there own music within something new. It was a time there you still had to watch your icons on stage, to be physically at each concert --- Bob Marley, Kiss. Elton John, Frank Zappa, Alice Cooper, David Bowie, Springsteen, Led Zeppelin, Michael Jackson, ABBA, Sly & Family Stone, The Queen, U2 etc ---- All those icons got a new image which seemed to be just as important than the music they played --- even the Stones started to change their costumes more colorful and got wilder on stage --- love from Sweden ❤❤❤
