December 31, 1999
One of the best times I have seen Billy Joel was on this date.
Now for you youngsters, this was “Y2K”. Y2K was when “all computers would not work” and for some reason the media thought the end of the world was coming.
So I got tickets for this night with a few friends. Paid $500 per ticket to see Billy Joel (my 3rd time) at Madison Square Garden in the heart of all that...
CYNDI LAUPER OR BILLY JOEL?

Whose music do you like more!?
Is this a real question?
surahhh:
Fuck everyone who gets to see Billy Joel for free.
I’m saying the same thing. I’ve paid so many times to see him. A freebie would kick ass.

The last line is my favorite of his. That is saying something huge too since I love his lyrics.

You lose major respect points with me if you’re only reason for hating Billy Joel is that he’s “old”. He is a fucking legend. You do not use the words “gross” and “Billy Joel” in the same sentence.

PLEASE make a new album.
Do you have any idea how much that would make my LIFE??
The fact that “River of Dreams” was the last album you released makes me immensely sad.
For the love of all which is holy…I’m begging you…one more album.
Just. One. More. Album.
Totally agree with everything except Fantasies and Delusions was his last album. And it really kicked fucking ass.
But...
So, I am watching Oliver and Company
