Last
night at Lee's Palace in Toronto, it finally happened. Ron Sexsmith stepped
onto the stage with one of his biggest influences: Elton John. It seems they
were both there to see Ryan Adams. Elton John has long expressed his admiration
for Ryan just as he has for Ron. When Elton took to the piano for Rocket Man,
Ryan asked Ron to come up and sing along. Elton and Ron had a brief chat after
the show. Ron says "it made my night."
