I saw him a few years ago back here in the frigid midwest, it was very good, and met all of my expectations...it should be awesome man, especially since it is Billy Joel..

rcvecc,
With all due respect, but a comment like that is not entirely true and isn't always the case.
As a musician myself, I find it somewhat offensive. I in my 27 years of playing, have never touched illegal drugs, nor have I ever had any kind of a drinking problem. I have known and worked with many musicians who have had their battles with various addictions. Many of which whom lost their lives to it, and many who have over come them.
Many of the ones who were able to beat their addictions did not have their preformance suffer as a result of it. If anything it improved it.
Now granted that isn't always the case and that much is true, but the notion that one is only good, or not as good as they were, if/when high or intoxicated is just bull$hit.
I do respect your opinion, but your remarks are not entirely true.
Sutter

I think he forgot to put in the 'cheeky' emoticon at the end of his post.
Cheers!

Oh, and to answer snake's question, I'm sure it would be an enjoyable performance from Billy. You know what they say about good wine....
Cheers!

I agree, I don't see how that statement could have been taken as a joke, it was pretty much straight to the point. A lot of famous people have issues, just like us everyday folks. I would not put to much faith in what you hear on Inside Edition and other news broadcasts.
