Elton John is in Italy this week as his Farewell Yellow Brick Roadtour, with a stop in Verona last night and tonight (Thursday).
Our staff met up with him earlier this week in Milan and he told us it's going better than he expected.

Elton is in Europe through July 7th in Lucca, Italy before bringing it back to America on September 4th in Salt Lake City.
Elton's bio-pic,Rocketman, made $7 million in its first five days in Britain -- but fell short of both the live-action Aladdin as well as the business Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody did a year ago. Rocketman opens here on Friday.
We have Elton John taking over the airwaves tonight at 5pm for a solid hour, talking about his career, his music and of course his bio-pic, Rocketman.
Plus you'll hear some of his cherry-picked hits by Sir Elton. That's tonight at 5 on 96-1 the Rocket.
