If you notice Piano Man is always his last song, despite how much he jokes about how much he has performed it, he knows to save the crowds best for last, in that when ever he does overseas shows based on that country he will play a intro to the song that the crowd recognizes as their own so to speak, not sure exactly how to explain that, but in that rite he is correct as a pianist he knows music is the universal lanugage, he is speaking to them with the piano with the foreign intro to this song.
@NYankees44 Summer Highland Falls is an epic song. It's def up there. I still think "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" is one of the greatest songs ever written, up there with "A Day in the LIfe."
@daward2 I think Summer Highland Falls is one of the best things he's ever written. I heard him play it live in CT and was amazed. Turnstiles is prob my fav Billy album.
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE THE LUCKIEST MAN IN THE WORLD TO GET THESE SEATS, I went to the April 24 concert in MSG, it was the best thing i ever saw, check out my videos, i got a video from the concert of AYM
