BILLINGS — MetraPark is reopening Rimrock Auto Arena with a bang — an Elton John concert on April 10.

John's concert will be the first in the arena since it was devastated by a tornado last June.

Tickets to John's "Greatest Hits Live" concert cost $29, $79 and $129 and go on sale Saturday. Numbered wristbands are available starting Wednesday. On Saturday, a random wristband number will be drawn and the person with that wristband will be the first in line to purchase tickets. Officials say the arena will hold about 9,500 people for the concert, which is expected to sell out.

John played Missoula and Bozeman in September 2007 and returned to Missoula in the spring of 2008.
