My favorite rocketman, Sir Elton John, is actually a brave knight; he's willing to dare the swamp of political corruptness. First he played at Rush Limbaugh's wedding, now he's gonna perform a concert in Israel, where other artists are too cowardly to deploy:
“Ain’t gonna stop me from coming here, baby,” he told the crowd in Tel Aviv, saying he believed music should spread peace and bring people together: “That is what we do. We do not cherry-pick our consciences, OK?” he added, in an apparent swipe at the artists who have canceled concerts in Israel . . . “I have always believed that music inhabits a world set apart from politics, religious differences or prejudice of any kind.”
A renegade to the end!
