I saw him in 2002 with Elton John. One of the best concerts I've seen in my life.
Billy Joel is not only a great showman, but a comedian as well. He jokes all the time, and even if you don't like his music it's guaranteed he'll make you laugh.

"He jokes all the time, and even if you don't like his music it's guaranteed he'll make you laugh."
I was actually JUST listening to his "An Evening of Questions And Answers... And A Little Music", And he is quite funny! If anyone has seen the "Inside The Actors Studio" with him on it, That's basically the gist of the CD I just mentioned. CLASS!

The Elvis Presley and Beatles influences are palpable, even for a piano-based musician. I enjoyed the "Innocent Man" album, his most straightforward tribute to the 50's and 60's music that influenced him, especially Frankie Valli. Some other fave songs of mine are; "Say Goodbye to Hollywood", "I Go to Extremes", "Shameless", and "Downeaster Alexa".

Shameless is a great track! As with the whole of the "Storm Front" album!

Billy's my favorite!
I've seen him 4 times. Twice with Elton John (once in 2002 and once in their first tour together - 1994 or something), once solo (fifth row center!), and once for "Questions, Answers, and a Little Music". All fantastic.

I really hope he tours again... With or without Elton. I WANNA SEE HIM!!! LOL!

The only problem with his concerts is that he has so many hits, so many "must plays" that he always plays pretty much the same stuff - the biggies. It was a real treat to hear him play "Vienna" when I saw him solo - wasn't expecting that.

A REAL oxymoron would be - "Britney Spears ROCKS!!"
