No other photographers in the photo pit.

It was just me.

I was hired by his management company.

I had grown up going to Madison Square Garden and seeing concerts there, so it was kind of surreal.

Funny story in the book.

If you have time, I can tell you that.

Basically, I'm standing all the way at the other end of the stage, the left part of the stage.

Elton comes to the edge of his stage.

A fan comes leaning in to hand him a big bouquet of balloons.

He can't quite reach them, so he looks down at me and kind of gives me the nod like, buddy, give me a hand here.

I can't reach these.

And another stupid move on my part, starstruck, I just stand there dumbfounded like,

I'm in Madison Square Garden.

Elton John's talking to me and I'm standing there and he's kind of giving me the exaggerated head nudge, like, get over here, buddy.

And I snap out of it, run over, hand the balloons to Elton John.

And I wish somebody had a photo of that to this day, but it was a pretty cool story.

I was hired by Capitol Records, I think, at the time, and I was just following her around.

She was doing radio interviews, and I was covering it, taking pictures of her with the executives.

And another funny story, these are my three favorite, me acting like an idiot, starstruck story.

So I'm across from her in the limousine.
