I'm not a big Billy Joel fan honestly. I guess growing up right near where he did doesn't help. Familiarity breeds contempt. I scrolled past all those tunes, but I'll give it a listen. Now, if they do Captain Jack, I'm all in!
I do like the guy. I just don't like most of his music. I do think 5 or 6 of his songs are fantastic. One thing I really like about him is that he is out and about constantly, showing up at local events and seeming very much like a regular guy. One time my cousin sent me a text photo from his kid's little league game captioned "look who's here." I saw my cousin, but didn't even recognize Billy Joel standing next to him. All old Long Island guys look alike.
Wow...it's old, but it represented very good quality in its time!

Yup! Just read that someone bribed Paul $20 to play it at a show recently, too!
I've posted about the Middle Aged Dad Jam Band before, and they did a fun cover:
I just watched Love Shack and The Letter. The Letter was a damn good live performance.
Check out their take on Vienna - it's never been one of my favorite Billy Joel songs, but I really like how they handle it.

I thought living on LI meant you were legally obligated to love him!

Excellent! That was a fun cover. I have to check out their other videos.
Yessir!
