Never been to a Billy Joel or Elton concert. A friend of mine works for Billy. He was out of town for a Billy show. His wife was at home. She had a medical emergency, He was notified. He was back home in 2 hours to hold her hand as she died. I asked, "how did you get on a plane so quickly?" He told me "Billy Joel private jet. Just me and the pilot". WOW so cool. I read up on Billy. He left high school because he didn't feel he needed a diploma. His thought process was "I am not going to Columbia University; I am going to Columbia Records". Long live Billy. One of the coolest dudes around.
