Saw him in Philly in late 80s great seats behind the stage. He wore REALLY tight pants. Great show!

I have heard some of Billy Joel's music, I really don't get the appeal.

"We didn't start the fire" -> is an absolutely childish song.

Boomers ---- the country, thats a fact.

He's great live.

Speaking of which, if you get a chance to go to Post Malone's concert it's a great show. Jelly Roll this is the main opening act is great too.

I flew up here to Chicago for the weekend as a guest of One of his band members. One of the best feel-good concerts I think I've ever been to or played in myself when I toured with acts earlier in my music career. Great concert. Everyone in his band and crew are so nice. If you get a chance to see it you'll have a great time.

I had tickets to see him earlier this year, and with his fall, they were pushed back 1 yr. Looks like it's not going to happen now. Hope he has as best a recovery as possible.
