Elton John To Play Private Show At Gillette Stadium
Want to see Elton John in Foxborough next month? You're going to need an invite from Robert Kraft.

FOXBOROUGH, MA — In case Wednesday's Kenny Chesney announcement wasn't enough, there's another big name coming to Gillette Stadium, except you'll need an invitation from Robert Kraft to go to this show.
The owner of the Patriots is apparently hosting Elton John on Nov. 8. An invitation obtained by the Boston Globe reads: "The Kraft Family Invites You To A Very Intimate Performance By Sir Elton John.” The dress code calls for casual concert attire.
The man behind hits such as "Your Song," "Rocket Man," and "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" has been friends with Kraft for some time and previously played the 40th anniversary party for Robert and the late Myra Kraft.

As for who is getting invited? Who knows, but if it's anything like last year's private Rolling Stones show at the stadium, it will have plenty of guests with recognizable names.
