My Elton John Concert Dream!

Donation protected

Please HELP me make my Elton John DREAM come true!

My name is Brianna, I'm a 17 year old girl from Detroit and I simply adore older music from John Mellencamp to Bob Seger to Little Richard to Elton John. I love to see my favorite artists live whenever I can- but unfortunetly that can't always happen because money is a real pain. 
I have never see Elton John live before, and neither has my family. For the longest time I have dreamed of seeing Sir Elton live and experience his magical concert for at least one night. I don't care where I sit, honestly, just to be in the same room as one of my favorite musicians ever would melt my heart instantly. You know the feeling you get when the adrenaline rushes through you as you pump your fists in the air? When your lifelong hero comes on stage right before your eyes and seems to sing to YOU!? That is a dream that is only bound to come true with the help of kind souls who are willing to donate.

The show I am interested in is on September 28th, 2016 at the Huntington Center in Toledo, OH. I have checked ticket prices on Ticketmaster, VividSeats, StubHub, you name it- the cheapest price I have found was around $150 per ticket. I have to get two tickets so that my mom can go as well, which means that I need to scrape at LEAST $300. And honestly, we'll need a hotel, and gas money, as well as car parking money most likely, and all of that can up to over $400... now you see why I need a little help here?

I don't have money growing on trees in my backyard, and the ticket prices of "classic rock" performers as been on the rise big time these days. Money wouldn't be a problem if the price of these tickets weren't so outrageous, and the show was closer. The worst thing is that Elton John, just like the rest of us, is getting older... and he said himself that he is going to be winding down the touring. The odds of him coming back near me are going to be low, and if he does return in my area, the ticket prices will rise even higher!! So this is pretty much my last chance to see Elton John. It would break my heart if I missed this concert and never got to see the man and his music who means so much to me.

I would be forever thankful, grateful, and delighted if you could help me make my dream come true to see Elton John live at least once! And I know my mom would truly enjoy going to a concert with me to see Elton John. It would be a night both of us would never forget! I will stand outside in rain, hail, sleet, or snow for as many hours as needed to see this man. I will travel the long distances. I will do everything in my willpower to see this man live. I truly don't care where I sit, because any place in that venue means I am living my dream.
You know how it feels to be a teenage girl and have teenage idols. But how many 17 year old girls do you know who are trying to go to an Elton John concert these days? Please help me make this concert possible for me. PLEASE and THANK YOU for all your help!!! Every dollar counts!
