AboutAustin Scott Expertise I am a huge fan of Elton John`s, and take it upon myself to learn as much about him as I can. I know a lot of obscure facts as well as many people associated with Elton over the years. I love to share my knowledge with other Elton fans or just the curious. I`m a dedicated fan...I`ve gotten myself three autographs at concerts, one from as far back as 32 rows! If I don`t know your question, I`ll try to find it!
Question Hi, I did obtain two series of colour-slides of Elton John live, USA, 1974. I presume it has to be a LA venue, or in that region. I am looking for tourdates. Do you know them? And another question: Golden Earring obtained a golden MCA record in L.A., Oktober 9, 1974. It is said that Elton attended the party (a luxury lunch). Could that be possible? Was he around then, in L.A.?
Many Thanks,

Answer Hi Jeroen,
Elton played at The Forum in Los Angeles on October 5, 1974. On October 9, 1974 he had a concert in San Francisco. It is entirely possible that he attended the Golden Earring party because he was in California during those dates. I don't know that he was for sure, however.
