Notes:
This is a real nice Pro-shot DVD, with SBD audio. My guess is that this was sourced by the cameras used at the venue for the big screens. This was Elton's "The Big Picture" Tour, and features three songs from that album as well as a couple from his 1995 album, "Made in England". I believe an encore number is missing, as he was playing "Great Balls of Fire" on that tour as a final number, and it is not here.

ABC/Ida Mae Astute
(LONDON) -- Since Elton John became a father over Christmas, he's pretty much been everywhere talking about how much he loves his new son, Zachary.  Maybe that's why he's been nominated for Britain's "Celebrity Dad of the Year" award. The British paper The Independent reports that both Elton and his partner, David Furnish, are up for the award, the first gay couple to be so honored.

According to the organizers of the honor, the Celebrity Dad of the Year Award was created to "reward the celebrity dad who has impressed the nation by balancing a hectic public life with the demands of parenting."

Among Elton's competition is David Beckham -- ironic, since Elton is godfather to two of Beckham's sons.
