Key Highlights :
1. John thanked the crowd for their patience following years of delays caused by Covid and a hip operation.
2. The show was deliberately and positively joyful.
3. Timeless anthems of defiance like Border Song and I’m Still Standing were fiercely pertinent as the star performed them to a multi-generational audience.
4. Further proving he’s still got it, 2021’s poptastic No 1 single Cold Heart received one of the biggest reactions of the night.
5. Despite being 286 shows into a tour that originally began in 2018, things never felt rigid or tired.
6. John and his “kick ass” band comfortably switched between freewheeling rock and roll (Levon) and unruly karaoke (Crocodile Rock) with a mischievous flair.
7. After almost every song, the showman triumphantly stood up from behind the piano with a beaming smile and his arms outstretched like he couldn’t believe he was still getting away with it.
8. Later this summer, John will play his final UK show ever as a first time Glastonbury headliner.
