On Wednesday (April 22) Elton John bid farewell to his longtime home at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The Rocket Man played over 241 shows in five years on the Las Vegas Strip, and while he won't be making an appearance in Sin City in the near future, Elton John said he may return at some point. For his farewell show, John wore a bright red shirt that matched his piano with a coat reading "Las Vegas Pirates" on the back and "Captain Elton" on its right sleeve. The 62-year-old performer said to the crowd, "The ex-home of Celine Dion ... and now it's the ex-home of Elton John, as well." John played through his greatest hits and reminisced about his time at the Colosseum, where he shared a stage with Cher, Bette Midler and Celine Dion, whom he hopes will play the venue again at some point. "Who are you going to get to fill out shoes now? You've got Better Midler, you've got Cher. It's gonna be the Village People next," he joked.

When his run at Caesars began in February 2004, Elton John initially signed on for 75 shows over a three-year period but, according to casino officials, his deal was expanded due to popular demand. Elton told the audience Wednesday, "I really have enjoyed every single moment of this engagement," before opening the show with "Bennie and the Jets." The five-time Grammy winner's tour with Billy Joel has the second-highest average gross box office revenue, according to Pollstar (the concert industry trade publication), with $115.84. The talented duo grosses $2.2 million each show, second only to pop star Britney Spears.

Elton John received a standing ovation after nearly every hit he played at his farewell show, such as "Candle in the Wind," "Tiny Dancer" and "Rocket Man." Famed photographer and director David LaChapelle crafted video productions for a handful of songs and the clips boasted appearances by actress Pamela Anderson, actor Paul Reubens and singer Justin Timberlake. Before ending the memorable show with "Your Song" with the iconic lyrics, "I hope you don't mind that I put down in words/How wonderful life is while you're in the world," the Rocket Man told the crowd, "One day I might even see you in Vegas, OK? But until then, I love you" and kissed one lucky audience member's hand before leaving the stage.

The Piano Man and the Rocket Man kicked off their Face 2 Face tour to a packed house in Jacksonville, Fla. on March 1. The pair first began co-headlining in 1994 and most recently hit the road together in 2003. Their 33-song opening night took audience members down memory lane, with both performers serving up their greatest hits. Although some of the duo's 2009 dates closely resemble their 2004 jaunt, many of the shows are configured in 360 degrees, boosting capacity significantly. Get your Elton John tickets online.
