ELTON JOHN WEBSITE – eltonjohn.com
FRIDAY 05 OCTOBER
EK1 feature in three ways on the Elton John official website this week.
The band were the first of about fifty Kent-based musicians to perform at a charity event at the Archer, Whitfield in August. (See the news item below). The event raised £700 for the Elton John Aids Foundation.
Bryan (EK1 keyboard player) and Andrew Brind (landlord of the event venue) approached Elton John's management to make them aware of this event, and they could not have been more supportive. Bryan was invited to Elton John's offices in London and was greeted warmly for two hours by the pianist's web manager and former Press Secretary, Laura Croker. For an avowed Elton John fanatic, to visit his keys-idol's mission control made for a spectacular day.
David Orwell (EK1 web designer) has the poster designed for this special event – which was described as professionally produced by Elton John's management – displayed on the Rocket Man's website.

EK1 now include Honky Cat and Rocket Man, prepared for the charity event, in their function set. Both numbers are very well received by their audiences.
