Short story:

Elton John plays the first of four nights at The Superbowl, Sun City, South Africa, accompanied by percussionist Ray Cooper. Before the show, Elton is warned by venue staff no to wear his white suit, as it would attract insects in the dark, especially with stage lights being focussed on it. Elton ignores the advice, and then has to halt the show when swarms of insects descend on him.
