I don't know why, but I went from listening to Dizzee Rascal to Billy Squier. I guess we're all connected. (Dizzee used the Big Beat sample including Billy's vocals).
I second that request: any videos of Piper? Any bootlegs? I got "Piper" and "Can't Wait" on vinyl several years ago and loved 'em! I was thrilled when they finally came out on CD this year. Every track is a gem.
If you find a copy of "Billy Squier In The Dark," get it! It kicks ass!
Billy Squier is a genius! Thanks for posting this. :D
Billy will be performing songs from his Piper days when he tours this summer starting in late June 2009. The guys from his band shown here in this concert footage will be joining him and that's the keyboardist Alan St. John and Bass player Mark Clarke along with some other great musicians.
Yes the Master William will be touring a few summer months this year.Adn I have heard from close source that Piper songs are included in the set,as well as new material
always put on a GREAT show.....

I rember the buzz around Wellesley when Don't Say No broke wide open. It was a BIG deal & we were all VERY proud of Billy's Wellesley roots.

Did you grow up in that area of Mass.? Old enough to remember him? I heard he had a following long before he hit it big up there

FYI... I did see Billy the first show of his tour this year. He played 1 Piper song.. "Little miss intent". Wish he played more though!

Has anyone got video of when Billy Squier was in Piper? That was the best he ever sounded... better than his solo stuff

I love watching Bobby C. swing those sticks. He was such an amazing talent.
