The glitter. The stars. The flow of campaign dollars.
Sir Elton John was the main attraction on Wednesday night at Radio City Music Hall in New York, but the spotlight was really on Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, who was lavished with donations to her presidential campaign.
The event brought in more than $2.5 million, according to the campaign, from the sale of more than 5,000 tickets.
The concert was announced in March with a mass e-mail message to Mrs. Clinton’s supporters, signed by Elton John. “There is nothing I like better than throwing a party for a good friend,” the message said in part.
Besides Mr. John’s lavish costumes, dazzling piano works and sing-along songs, the event promised to feature a photographable Clinton moment: Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton all together, presumably front and center on the cavernous Radio City stage.
