I could handle being at a beach party in California with the Beach boys playing and then the B52's once things got swinging.
Billy Joel was married to Christie Brinkley the hot (yet mental) super model of the 1980's and his music isn't annoying unlike Ian Anderson.

What songs of Billy Joel do you not like? Innocent Man was a great album, I grew up on that stuff.


Huey Lewis and The News would have been great to see in their prime
Nothing personal like Tull its a style all of its own.I usually like different stuff but for me Billys stuff just falls flat for some reason.

Although I can appreciate the effort that goes onto the writing and skill to bring it out personally by him, the style just doesnt do it for me and i get bored with it all so fast.
I cant stand piano man either if i was the last one in an old wild west bar drunk on straight wiskey and he started up with that stuff I would have to shoot him or me, probably me straight through both ears .

Just different taste in stuff mate thats all,Unlike Bruce Springsteen who sh!ts me to tears for other reasons,not so much his music but the massive ego the man has and its effects on everything he does; stands out way too much for my liking. Aside from what those poor bastards who have to work in with him have to put up with.
