Broadway Cares Rehearsal 3/31/00

Nigel invited Noreen to attend a rehearsal on Friday, March 31st by Elton's band for the 'Broadway Cares' tribute to Elton, which was to take place on April 3rd in Manhattan. The band had had a pre-dawn wake-up call that morning for The Today Show, which was Nigel's first appearance with the band since 1984. (They were promoting the El Dorado soundtrack at the time.)

The room was so huge, it was hard to get all of it in one shot.
