Elton John, during the Tulsa phase of the Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, gave a shout-out to a Tulsa music legend.
After more than half a century on the road, Sir Elton is wrapping up his career with a tour to end all tours. The Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour will take him to 300 shows across five continents and, on Saturday night, the staging ground was Tulsa’s BOK Center.
