Even from the nose bleed the concert was personable and his voice hasn't waivered although he says he can't hit the high notes like he once could...you really couldn't tell
Sorry about the crappy visual quality - taken with an iphone from a long way away
Enjoy the Melbourne sunset and a selection of his many hit songs

I was sitting in my car at work in 1973 and heard ‘if I only had the words’ from the just released Piano Man on the John Laws radio show. I rushed out and bought the vinyl album and took it to every party and told my mates this guy is going to be a super star and my mates laughed at me - no one had heard of him except me and John Laws. The rest was history. I did the same thing with ELO but that’s another story.

Got to be lucky to get tickets to the show with my wife. Especially wanted to make sure she got to see her favourite artist and we did. Seeing her smile and hear her favourite song of Billy’s being played was just magical. Kills me that we’re separated now. Such a wonderful show, the atmosphere and seeing a living legend doing what he does best.

I was at that show! He's still got it. The good news "I haven't released any new music in 30 years. The bad news I haven't released any new music in 30 years so you're going to hear the same old stuff you've heard before." GREAT - that's why we bought a ticket and went to the show to hear all the great old songs and he delivered in spades. Imagine 30 years ago at 43 saying I've got nothing more to say and no more songs to write. I'll play at Madison Square Garden till no one shows up and they're still showing up 30 years after the last album came out.

He doesn't either at any of his concerts. People just do it, because he has been one of the best recording musicians ever. Btw, regarding another musician whom I saw back in the late 1980s as a teen, Dragon... were absolutely shit during the 2nd half of the 1980s, and love their songs. People sing at those as well.

Anyone would say any of the musicians they like, is one of the best concerts they've ever been to. Billy Joel started to wane around the 2nd-half of the 1990s. And the last I saw Billy Joel was when he performed with Elton John in 1998. He wasn't as good as the 1980s when I went to see him perform or the previous tour of the 1998 one, 'River of Dreams'. I only went to that because it was pretty much his last recording album, and like soul music myself. Just like Simply Red.

Living in New Zealand I went and saw him in Auckland on the 3rd. Extraordinary experience, and absolutely worth the expensive ticket. As a professional pianist, despite being a classical pianist Billy Joel was always one of my idols growing up. Have loved his music ever since the first listen. She’s Always a Woman and Vienna were my highlights but he made Piano Man sound so fresh it was amazing. My dad often made me play piano man and the song had begun to feel dull to me but his performance rekindled the joy I had when I first heard it. Extraordinary showman and memories I will forever remember as I continue my journey as a musician!

@shanethemuzz5060
@shanethemuzz5060 Год назад
@@Mia-vm6plWell, it seems as though you may not, when it comes to concerts. Billy Joel is definitely past his best, when performing Live. I remember from listening to concerts of his from 20 yrs ago from videos (and friends showing me from recordings of the concerts) from the Live concerts early this millenium & century - I noticed that. I still think from the 1998 concert that he paired with Elton John, he didn't sound as good as the 'River of Dreams' tour - of which he mainly performed tracks from that album being Blues & soul, as well as some minor tracks from his hits. I had seen him perform Live during the 2nd-half of the 1980s, and the 'Storm Front' Tour. He really started to wane in the late 1990s, even tho the ones who went to see the 1998 tour, mentioned to me that Billy Joel sounded better than Elton John. And I even had to agree with that. But it was somewhat of a disappointment of a performance. MJ was a better performance and singing wise, a cpl of yrs earlier at the SCG. I still thought that both Bowie (Reality tour), and the Prince tour of 2013, was a way better performance than what Billy Joel had brought out since 1998.

I have seen Billy twice in the last four years at MSG in NYC. I was so lucky to grab a front row ticket for one of the shows. The best thing about Billy is that even in his 70's his voice sounds great and unlike other older performers like Elton John Billy doesn't have to change the style or tempo to fit an aging voice.
