Billy Joel and his current touring "situation"

Post by SouthernSeas »

Now I know that Billy Joel "said" that he was retiring a while back, but I have managed to see some good concerts these past months for him on ticketmaster. So doesn anyone know what the scoop is? Also, does anyone know why every one of these concerts have been canceled recently?

All l know is, he recentlly got out of rehab early (meaning he checked himself out). Insert bad driving joke here:_________________. You might be able to find out some more info on his future plans here:

He had his first solo shows in years planned in March....one in Las Vegas and one in Phoenix....however just a week or so before those shows took place he checked into rehab as we all know. Its too bad....I was hoping those 2 shows would go well and encourage him to do a full tour. I saw him play with Elton John a couple years ago and it was quite a show.
