Scottish football club sue Elton
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 9 July 2009
Elton John is being sued by Aberdeen Football Club for the damage caused to their pitch during a concert the singer held there five years ago. Techically speaking I think the football club is actually suing the show’s promoter Marshall Arts, but that makes a less good headline. The Scottish team reportedly claim Marshall should have insured the pitch so to cover the costs of repairing damage caused during the gig. They are seeking £36,000 to cover their own repair costs. The claim has been filed at Edinburgh’s Court Of Session. Neither Elton nor Marshall have, as yet, commented.
