[retardtothethirdprod]

Oh.. how I wish I could be in that concert :(

[nooyawkfun]

Thank you for posting this! What a treasure.

[Stunatra]

Oh it is the fan? I'll fix that *kick* lmao <3

[keatingpiers]

Thanks for posting this!! I've been looking for one of his mater classes for like two years now. Billy Joel is a genius.

[louswire]

I know what's on the screen... but I still see the skinny kid with the 'fro' when I hear him sing...

[alan1963]

Is Billy Joel look like Daniel Barenboim? I think he's awesome!!

[quetevale]

I love this piano man!

[modusvivendi2]

The only musician I've ever encountered who could equal the songwriting talent of Billy Joel is Al Stewart. Otherwise, his lyrics are as good as it gets. Just fabulous stuff.

[TBarrettS]

Please someone, anyone. Where can you buy this on DVD?

[hoopsheavenpa]

Summer Highland Falls is such an underrated song. This song gives me goosebumps!

[woodstock1330]

is it the fan? Ok...just fix that... lmao. Nice.

[Mo19010100]

Outstanding performance! :)

[mombassano27]

OMG the Lennon imitation is SO FUNNY! :p

[transformismism]

whre can i buy this dvd? ever officially released??

[surreal99]

My all-time favourite song

[xj14y]

I love this show. It's brilliant, and really speaks to Joel's accomplishments as a songwriter. But I really hope he had a coaster under the glass on top of that beautiful piano.

[Jakegouldon]

One of the best, if not the best, performers of all time.

[Kingjne92]

"juicy gossipy bljiblajib" haha

i love billy joel

[gekopnederland]

Yes, that is what I want to ask!! I cannot find it in Amazon in Japan...

[MegaPianoplayer1]

Does anybody know if you can get this on dvd?

[proken58]

Joel was once asked which other rock stars are glib and honest enough to do a show like this, and he responded with "Don Henley and Sting."

[pjlira]

he sucks. what about this feedback from hell? and the bad singing? is this a joke?

[loveandkaos]

Don't like it, don't fucking listen.

[pjlira]

U r right... I won't!

[momosportsgeek]

Whats the song at 3:39? I know it but I can't come up with the name.... :(

[MtzUglyDuck]

Miami 2017, followed by Piano man, and then Goodnight My Angel

[DarkeningSkies1]

@momosportsgeek Can't believe nobody ever replied: it is a section of "Scenes From An Italian Rest." ;)

[momosportsgeek]

@DarkeningSkies1 Yeah i got it now, that was forever ago :) but thanks :) 

[tobythedog1020]

[Bowlen000]

i would love to get a tut or sheet music of the beginning song

[olllie24]

You can buy the books with the complete Billy Joel sheet music - "The Complete Billy Joel"..

The first son was Summer Higland Falls

[KBGUY09]

This is a great video. Is there anyway to download this? I mean other than downloading it off of youtube, which I'm sure would have quality loss.

[rafalweb]

As a New Yorker, I love a rock star with a real NY accent.

[ruskybalboa]

I love his eyes when he says "eyes" at 1:15.

[mocus1]

oh boy that was great !

[SDTJUNIOR]

This song is simply wonderful.

I think that Billy Joel is one of the best pianists os the world.

[88JRM]

[2468MMM]

He's amazing. Love him, so much!

[iamthebombdude]

[hollykill]

summer highland falls

[Moridin417]

Since there were a few comments about this filming, I figured I'd chime in as I was lucky enough to be there. This was November, 2001 at the Irvine Auditorium on the UPenn campus in Philly. A&E did a good job splicing together a show, but the actual performance went about 4 hours. The kid from the audience who performs in one of the parts lived on my hall freshman year...this was a great time...thanks for posting and letting me reminisce...now I'm off to see the Face w Face tour in Phoenix!

[Hektor88]

i saw it in Phoenix just a few days ago as well. First time seeing either of them. Really transcendent eh?

[Moridin417]

It was definitely a great show although our seats were not fantastic. I saw them both in Philly during the 2002 Face 2 Face tour and was upgraded to front row, dead center...that was truly incredible. But they are amazing performers, and it was a wonderful evening. Hoping for the same from the Boss this Friday.

[pb72nova]

love billy joel, grew up on his music and I cant express what it means to me. makes me wanna play the piano.

[TheGurry]

that place is frickin huge.

this is a pretty good concert

[jenvargas]

Awesome. Thanks for sharing!

[Qboy316]

oh gosh, dont get billy started on the lights!

[woodstock1330]

lmao

[daward2]

LOL I heard that during the Soviet Union shows, there was a bit of a fight between Billy's crew and the powers that were in USSR. The lights stayed on, Billy was pissed because with the lights on, the crowd was too intimidated to let go and have fun. When the lights were off, they relaxed, but if a light was shown on a person, they froze. I wonder if a bit of that is running through his head when talking about the lights.

[awilderbj]

There's a video of that on YouTube. I actually have the video of that whole documentary with that on there. Pretty awesome.

[IrishOwl]

where was this filmed?

[austinlg28]

University of Penn

[TurgeonFan77132]

Is that an NYPD pin he's wearing on his left hand side? Was this done after 9/11?

[slovely08]

yes it was, not too long after.

[chrisz31974]

he rules

[jmusicmanosu]

Does anyone know the name of the song that he opened with?

[billyjoelforever]

Summer, Highland Falls =)

[drinkstwohanded]

did he pay them back for the fan? lol

[woodstock1330]

no no no, cause that wouldn't be rock and roll! :P

[mission2marsden]

good to know he's still funny!
