Best Joel song ever. The guitar in that song is haunting and pure. JM did it justice. Bummed I miss it:(

I told John in early 2001 that I had given the disc to Liberty.. you should have seen how excited he was to know that the Billy Joel band dug his stuff.. it was a really fun moment.

I don't know why I get excited when I hear that John gets excited about Billy Joel, but I do!

The guitar work on the original studio recording of "This Is The Time" is outstanding... and was done by Billy's former lead guitar player David Brown.... It has barely been played since he left the band in 1991... His current guitar players jsut don't approach it as it need be... so it is a rarity these days... I will say... John came about as close to the David Brown flavor as it gets... sounded great.

I remember back in late 2000 I had given "Inside...

Which critics, Jojo? I didn't see anything negative in the Times/Post/Daily News/Newsday...

I cant find it, something to the effect that the guitar solo was tepid...

Billy Joel has always been a stellar performer. His concerts in the '70's were the epitome of excellence, and his shows with Elton John were superb. So glad Mayer had the opportunity to play with one of the greatest songwriters of all time. Rock on. Wish I could have seen this one..............

I spent last weekend camping in a field in the middle of Ireland drinking copious amounts and rocking out to, in order, dEUs, Ben Folds (AWESOME), Interpol, Kings of Leon, Seasick Steve (Freakin' amazing, go listen now people), The Prodigy and Rage Against the Machine (Also saw The Blizzards, The Kooks, The Fratellis and The Kaiser Chiefs, but that was only because I was camped out in the pit for Rage)

So yea, been offline. Oh and working all week. I missed so much John stuff I...

You are a VERY lucky man, Richard. Thanks for the info. It sounds like I missed an amazing show.

Now, where's my Billy shirt?????

And, Rivalius...

I look nothing like my avatar in real life.

Where the hell have you been, Rivalius? I've been longing for your comic relief.

Pat, is that you in your avatar?

(Even though I've seen your pic, for some reason I associate everyones avatars here with their RL faces. It gets hella confusing with all the JM avatars....)

It's the last concert ever at Shea Stadium in NY. My best friend just called me and told me that John just played on "A Time to Remember". I would have never predicted that happening, but I can see how he's a huge Billy Joel fan. Who isn't?
