Billy Joel Concert

I love Billy Joel.
A LOT.
I mean look at that handsome devil:
AND he somehow convinced Christie Brinkley to marry him, so...he's pretty awesome

So what better time to see one of the most famous New Yorkers perform than when Bryant and I are living in New York City?
Billy Joel has been doing a sort of "artist in residence" monthly concert series at Madison Square Garden. 
I begged and pleaded and finally convinced Bryant to take me to the April 18th show.
This was hanging on the wall inside Madison Square Garden.
 After the attacks on September 11, 2001, there was a benefit concert held.
This ticket was signed by:
President Bill Clinton, Governor George Pataki, and Major Rudy Giuliani.
Gavin DeGraw was the opening act
Paige met him once before they both flew to Europe. I sent her a video of him from the concert and she had no idea who he was. BOO to you, Paige!

After Gavin DeGraw performed we had to sit around for a while until Billy Joel finally came out
 He finally started!!
This was the setlist:



I looove Uptown Girl.
The music video kills me:





Thanks again to my sweetheart Bryant for tolerating the show with me!
