Put on the glitter, sequins, headgear, glasses, the highest heels, the biggest smiles, and come and dance, sing, and enjoy an evening you will never forget.

For over five decades, Elton John has been active as an artist. He has composed several of the world's greatest and most beloved songs, constantly toured the world, and remains highly relevant today, notably through high-profile and successful collaborations with other world artists who are not even half his age. In July 2023, he gave his last concert in Sweden.

Jonas Gideon was born in 1984. He grew up with music from his parents' record collection, especially Elton John. As a little boy, Jonas started to learn to play and sing Elton's songs. By chance, he met Elton just before his concert at Ullevi in Gothenburg in 1998 and became obsessed. He learned nearly 200 songs and has seen Elton live 14 times over the years. Thanks to Elton John, Jonas decided to become a professional musician and singer. Since then, he has played with much of Sweden's artist elite, including Molly Sandén, Jennifer Brown, Carola, Victor Norén, and Janne Schaffer, among others. After working as a musician for 20 years, it was time for Jonas to start "THIS SHOW HAS NO TITLE - A true Elton John tribute".

Premiering at Lund's City Theatre in November 2023, it sold out and received an enormous response.

Janne Schaffer says:
"In the early 1970s, I had the great honor of listening to a young Elton John's first performance at Kårhuset on Holländargatan in Stockholm, and the whole concert went straight to my heart. Over 50 years later, to relive these fantastic songs with Jonas Gideon was completely overwhelming. Jonas' interpretations are magical!"
