Elton John and band performed in Rio de Janeiro on September 23, 2011
Saturday, September 24 2011

Fan invaded the stage during Elton John concert in Rio de Janeiro.

With an audience smaller than that of singer Katy Perry, Elton John opened the show's fourth World Stage Rock in Rio 2011. The show started just before midnight Saturday, with music, "Saturday Night's Alright", followed by "I'm Still Standing".

After the classic "Levon", Elton dedicated "Tiny Dancer" to all the "dancers in the audience." At the beginning of the song a fan took the stage. Charismatic, the "Piano Man" just smiled and fumbled with the situation.

With a black blazer embroidered in different colors, Elton John showed energy, vibrating at the end of each song. "I'm happy to be here in Rio, this wonderful city", he told the audience.
